Senator Kerry, as your tour over "Flyover Country" continues, it must be really hard on your stomachs. You and the missus are used to the finest cuisine and now have to look like you are eating like the locals. All the little people are so impressed! I know you must have been embarassed by the revelation that you ate on the bus at stop and threw the local food in the garbage. We all saw that you really didn't eat at Wendy's. I mean, everyone thought you were eating at Wendy's, but then you had some take out at a more "substantial" place for some decent food. I know that a wealthy "Uber" class person such as yourself wants to really eat the way you are used to. So, as a service to your campaign, I am doing a little research on your next pitstop on the way to the White House.
After a little more research, it seems that the best restaurant at your next stop in Jefferson City seems to be a place called Madison's Café. It has a 3 star review it should make for a decent meal after pretending to eat at some dumpy Missouri ham 'n egger. Look, you have to take a bite at Wendy's or at Philly cheese steak stand, but then you have to really eat.
Here is the address:
216 Madison Street
Jefferson City, Missouri 65101-3230
573.634.2988
Your palates shouldn't suffer while you are out on the stump to gain the office you so richly deserve. -And if it costs a little more so what, the campaign is paying for it anyway.
Just trying to help.
No Smoking allowed!
I'm from Newburgh New York and have eaten in that Wendy's many times.....I've never eaten at Nikola's though. Kerry is a snob supreme!!!!!
On top of which, Teresa did not know what Chili is? How far up ones own arse does one have to be to not know what Chili is?
Washington is an overflowing feed lot full of pampered opportunists who would rather use Wendy's cuisine as dogfood. No perked coffee either! It's $4.00 per cup espresso from starbucks or no coffee at all.
The Kerry's are proof that Washington needs a purge from it's fantasy and needs diner food and diner budgets.
Madison's is the classic gathering place of legislators, lobbyists, association executives and downtown state workers willing to spend $10 or so on lunch or about $25 on dinner. They consistently have good food. It's a nice place and just a couple of blocks from Kerry's likely rally spot. Domenico's is also good as is Cafe Deville and Alexandro's. Some lobbyists types prefer Das Stein Haus.
If you're more a limited on your budget or just want to enjoy a real, honest, down-home dining experience, I'd recommend the Ecco Lounge, Towne Grill or the Cajun Catfish House. We also have a number of really good (and cheap) Mexican restaurants. All things, considered, the eating's pretty good in this town of 35,000.
In all fairness, I also found Ken Starr leaving his home each morning with a cup of Starbucks in his hand to be a bit disgusting as well. It meant he had some aide bring him his coffee to his home every morning. When our government servants hire servants to bring them coffee @$4 a cup and on an expense report, paid for by tax payers, a solution to that scenario needs to be in place in a hurry or eventually you get mobs with pitchforks and paramilitary responses.
Ever since Dave Thomas passed away, Wendy's has been going downhill. Same for Taco Bell after they dumped their talking chihuahua.

I think Dave put in a tad more sweat equity than that chihuahua.
I knew what you meant though! It just sounded funny.
Not sure Dave would appreciate the implied comparison.
Teresa might just develop an appetite for bisquits-n-gravy or country ham? Country ham is more of a controlled rot ham which is non poisonous due to it's ratio of salt to meat. A twenty pound ham is composed of ten pounds meat and ten pounds salt. One one ounce serving provides enough sodium for a human for three weeks based on daily needs.
You caught that too?
I'm a Whataburger man myself.
Wendy's has the best hamburgers of any of the fast food joints.
I'd add Johnny's Butcher Shop restaurant to that list. Madison's is good, my wife and I eat there a few times a year. We usually go there on our anniversary, but we're going down to Osage Beach to Dorsey Schroeder's place this year.
Thanks for the correction.
Don't forget O'Donoughue's just east of the capitol...I like it better than Madisons.
I bet they'll go to the Jefferson City Country Club, or eat with Governor Bob and Queen Laurie.
Waffle Houses have the best eggs/toast/grits anywhere, and it's always one of our favorite places to go when travelling in the South...
Their burgers/fries aren't bad either, and FYI, we live in a house, drive an F150 with a nice SUV for the dogs, and have no snaggle teeth, tattoos, big belt buckles or hair spray...LOL!!! ;)
An apostrophe does not mean "BEWARE OF ONCOMING 'S'".
I guess you saw his expense reports to confirm this.
Jamie Gorelick is juat waiting for that phone to ring to be on the next Starbucks slurpin, sushi catered investigative panel.
From a former South Carolina resident, yes I know reality in the south. I was just pokin the beast. I for one love Waffle House. I just don't think Tereeeeezzaa would. And that's a good thing.
I used to fly into National and do business in Crystal City, mostly related to Navy work, and then fly back home. The bloated mess you witness there is UFB. I don't think Ken Starr saw Ken Starr's expense reports. People in Washington are smarter than to leave that kind of paper trail. The Starbucks expenses are under miscellaneous meeting expenses. Along with the custom printed napkins, limited edition china, and dog sitters.
I would rather see an investigation or an accounting of the private use of AF One by Hillary then worry about Ken Starr's Starbucks bill.
I would also bet you that Kerry and company are not on that bus which hops around the heartland. They most likely ride the bus out of view to the closest airport, where a biz-jet with catering shoots them to their next destination. It's standard routine in most of those "Heartland of America" bus junketts during presidential season. Only the moron staffers and campaign volunteers ride the bus for real over any distance.
I'll say this. If John Kerry's advance people don't include a stop at Central Dairy Ice Cream then they're totally clueless
Are you positive Starbuck's wasn't delivering?
This is Bush country! The communist Vietnamese restaurants haven't made it here yet.
Dotties Cafe in Hartsburg is pretty killer. Then there's the Hitchin Post across the road.
A: So far one would need a scanning electron proctoscope to find her...
How often do you leave your house with a fresh cup of Starbucks? As for Starbucks delivering, ordering coffee to go to be delivered to your home, and then to drive by Starbucks or some other coffee place on the way to work, isn't that a bit over the top too?
Hopefully the Secret Service will tell them it isn't a secure area, and they'll have to send agents down there to check it out. All day.
So do I--and have Starbucks coffee--to make at home.
I was suggesting that Starbucks could have been delivering coffee to his home since it would have been good advertising.
HOw about where will he eat in KC. Will it be the New York Deli on Troost....I know you have been there too! or perhaps Pumperniks in P.V. Kansas. Now that Kerry has exposed his Jewish roots..He better start eating some real time good Jewish style food on the stump....Nachum. I know you and am glad you have the PASSION to see that GW is re-elected again. He stands strong for Israel and does not flip flop around on the issues depending on which way the wind is blowing. Knowing Kerry wants the inner-city vote means he stops at Arthur Bryant's BBQ with Mrs. Union paid and delivered Mcaskill....... Blunt will deliver Missouri.
Again you make me proud that I know you.
