02. Tiffany Tavern Review

This places goes to show you that you can't win them all. If We're Hungry had started with this S-hole we probably would have disbanded on the spot, thank god for Eammon's!
!!!NO ONE HAS EATEN HERE ALERT!!!

Pre-Meal
The parking situation on a Monday night: Super Easy we parked just down the street.

Crowd: Younger to few old men regulars at the bar.

Atmosphere: We picked the absolute wrong night to show up at this place. Monday night is their "Open-Mic Night" and it just so happens that the host of the "Open-Mic Night" was retiring from the gig after 8 long years.
This is the host and some creep ball at the bottom:

Greeting: John apparently looks like a regular performer/ guitar player in Old Town. He was immediately asked by a patron "You bring your guitar?" John just stared at the guy and moved on. My feeling is he looks like the Open-Mic host just a paler version.

Meal

Special Guest Emily: Chicken Gyro Platter

Richard: Hearty Steak and Cheese

John: Tuna Melt with Swiss on Rye w/ Onion Rings

Ahmed: Open-Faced Steak Sandwich

After we ordered we noticed the place really started to get hopping. We were confused we assumed it was the Open-Mic but who really likes Open-Mics this much? So as the performances began the host introduced himself and gave a heart warming speech about how Tiffany Tavern has changed his life. John described the fella as:
"Leading up to this night this guy filmed himself walking around Alexandria and then edited together a montage of himself set to one of his own REM covers"
We waited for our food for a good while, while at the same time being forced to listen to this guy talk about his band Juniper Lane opening for Coldplay back in August. The whole place really seemed to care, except for us.
We realized that everyone in the bar was there because of this guy and his band and that this place is a big tradition for these sad North King Street sacks. Go here and you will be out of place, no doubt.
Juniper Lane sucks by the way. Look it up on itunes. Bad Christian rock? I can't place it.

FINALLY
The food shows up after 4 songs from this ass.

It looks terrible. Everyone at the table was disappointed by what they saw in front of them.

Ahmed said "This is pretty whatever"

Emily raged: "When they say platter and charge $11.50, I imagine a huge plate, full of lettuce, tomato, chicken on top, tzetiki (sp?)...but it was a pita sandwich. Lettuce this big: (a hand drawn circle about the size of a tiny quarter. TWO THUMBS DOWN"

Richard choked down the worst Steak and Cheese he had ever eaten.

John didn't want to speak about his onion rings, just too sad.
