Today Janae and I went to Goodwood Barbecue without the kids; they gave us some angry stares since they wanted to go too, but we made it out without them. I was telling Janae about the Ha' Penny conversation earlier in the day and about how I think we should have Mexican Coffee there sometime. When the server came around asking if we wanted drinks I ordered a beer but didn't think about the Mexican Coffee until Janae reminded me, which launched a very drawn out ordering process. When the server stopped by to see if we needed anything, I asked if they had Mexican Coffee, he said probably but that he was not familiar with it so I asked if he could check with the bar then to find out. He came back and said that they did and I asked if they lit the rim on fire and he said that they do not do any drinks like that and I said "how much is it though?" and he had to go back and find out. he came back and told me (now I can't remember how much it was though) but I said okay, and then he went and ordered it, and later brought it out. I tasted it, and it was a coffee, with a tiny bit of tequila and a tiny bit of kalua probably, but it was nothing special. This was my first Mexican Coffee and I was not impressed.
Strike one for Mexican Coffee in general, but a much bigger strike for Goodwood Barbeque for not knowing how to sell a specialty drink.
