I snuffed my menthol out on the table. The darn place didn’t have an ashtray.
“What do you want to eat?!?!!?” I barked.
“Um. Well. TKG…if you can read, the only option is Carnitas.” Jen with the Coffee responded. “This place is Carnitas Morelia and happens to be conveniently located at 3088 W. 13th St. in Wichita, Kansas.” she went on.
“I’ll have you know I can read Jen…with the Whatever. And even Lets.Eat.ICT knows that. I was with him in school until I dropped out in the second grade, ain’t that right L.E.I.?”
Lets.Eat.ICT looked at me nervously.
I took a bite of the carnitas spread across my tortilla. It really was very good. So good I was distracted and missed what Fert was doing.
“Hey…what the heck Fert The Foodie?!?! Did you take more than your allotment? You can’t take more than your allotment!!!” Everyone knows when you have a community bowl of carnitas that there is a certain allotment allocated per foodie. I really couldn’t trust Fert around communal food. Not one ounce.
“Hey…hey…hey. TKG. Relax.” Jackstacks.Eats always knew how to calm me down. “Do you want to say it?” I think he could see the look of hope in my eyes. “Amen. Let’s Dig In!” we said together. And all was good.
But I still didn’t trust none of them.
RESTAURANT NOTES: I really enjoyed the meal. The carnitas were excellent. We also got the burrito 
and I think everyone (but definitely me) loved it. I had a great experience with the food. But didn’t enjoy the company.
