Getting It Right!
Monz stays true and breaks free: bbq chicken on a five inch fresh French roll, apple, string cheese, and some yummy extra which we wrote down but forgot to bring home (Monz will forgive us).
We, however, will not be so charitable with the Chicago Tribune reporter who wrote this. As we've noted before, the workers at the Cajun Grill at Union Station do not yell "right here!" after "yummy-yum!" (Monz might, but the workers don't!) Nor are they "enthusiastic" -- they look like grown up former child workers who were taught to shout in an enthusiastic style. This story is also dated: during our most recent visit they shouted at the FE (as he walked past to Robinson Ribs) "yummy-yummy-yum!". Worst of all, it misses the point, a point that Monz amply makes every day: it's not the number of times or the loudness of volume that one invokes the venerated word, it's about the food!
