In other crazy lawsuit news, convicted DUI manslaughterer Roberto Vellanoweth is suing the Camino Real Restaurant for serving him a “boozed-up mystery drink” that he claims caused the fatal crash in which he killed 4 people one horrifying and tragic day in South Land Park.
Obviously this is another insane what-is-this-world-coming-to lawsuit, but am I the only one who thinks it wouldn’t be a bad thing if somebody put that place out of business? In California there is really no excuse for bad Mexican food. The Yelpers back me up, using phrases like “HUGE mistake,” “thrown up,” “funny odor,” and “fat jerky was that brown ooze it had been swimming in” in their mostly 1-star reviews. If you’ve been to Camino Real Restaurant, you might wonder whether the mystery dosage in Vellanoweth’s drink was Hepatitis A. (This joke was brought to you by Mrs Cool.)

That guy just WILL NOT take responsibility!

Mrs. Cool knows her viruses! But Hep A would only cause you to blow a .18 after one or two beers if you had it for a LONG time…

This quote on Yelp was rather prescient:
“If I were to rate it based only on dinner entrees, I’d surely rate El Camino Real at one star.
So, why is it worth three?
Well, apparently if you are a liquor drinker, El Camino Real is the stiffest pour in town, and the alc-per-dollar value is reportedly as good or better than the Flame Club circa the late 90s. Remember when??? I can only report this second-hand because I’m always the designated driver. But I can tell you that I’ve seen my friends get pretty wasted there…and rather lickety-split!”
So perhaps one for the road is enough at Camino Real.
