The Stiletto Connection



It's hot down here and the portions at El Caserio have not gotten any smaller. This place has turned into Plotnik's favorite Stiletto City restaurant, at least his favorite that he went to last night.

The Great PD and The Great Brooklyn BellyBone are in town for two short days, as are Plot and Duck. Everyone has come to see Grandma, and while we're at it, we're not missing any meals.



This carne apanada, the breaded steak the size of Bellflower, was devoured by Mummy Plotnik, with help from everyone else. The problem was the other plates -- Plotnik's lomo saltado (strips of sirloin, tomatoes, onions and french fries SMOTHERED with gravy) and Duck and PD's Coas Finas (pork loin and bananas and corn cakes and potato pancakes).



When Plot is in Stiletto City with PD and family, he remembers how much fun it is down here.



But when they're not here, he spends most of his time disliking the place intensely, unless BZ is here, in which case he has a ball.

Then, when he and Ducknik travel to Brooklyn he remembers how much fun it is back East. When he and Duck used to visit BZWZ in Manhattan, they had a fantastic time there too, but now they never bother with Manhattan, 'cuz who needs Manhattan when you've got Brooklyn? Unless BZ comes back to Manhattan, then man! What a town!

So: do we see the connection here?

Oh man, now I gotta go eat a second dinner - that stuff looks great! I didn't realize Belly was going to be there - very fun! You probably don't even know what happened in today's Dodgers game, and that's how it should be.
