Another Dave's top ten list- based on true events!!!


 While travelling in Nicaragua here are the Top Ten Signs you should be looking for another restaurant.
Number 10: You order spaghetti Bolognese and get boiled pasta topped with ground beef and sweet and sour sauce.
Number 9: When you look at the soup of the day it stares back at you.
Number 8:  They have the number of the local funeral home on speed dial
Number 7: The locals snicker and point at you as they walk by.
Number 6: The bathroom attendant does double duty as the tortilla maker between flushes
Number 5: All the staff behind the counter are skinny
Number 4:  The posters on the wall are ads for Maalox rather than Toña (national beer)
Number 3:  The staff are ordering takeout from the place across the street.
Number 2:  When you complain your glass looks dirty the waitress dims the lights
And the number one reason to find a different restaurant in Nicaragua is:
   Even the street dogs wont beg for food there.

Believe it or not, all but 3 of these are based on actual incidents in my travels- your guess which 3!
