That sounds so stupid. No thanks! Food poisoning, here we come!
The only way folks will be exposed to possible food poisoning is if they eat at the DTSA hipster restaurants.
Right. With all those food poisoning reports flying around, it’s amazing you have time to post. The long list of new DTSA restaurants opening this year is fabulous! New restaurants and new art galleries! No new dress shops for the teeny-boppers!
