Some things are better in black and white and some things are better explained using 1920's slang. Ted's Bulletin is no exception with it's newspaper-like menus, its black and white "talkies" and its "hotsy-totsy" food.
We heard ratings up to 9.75 for the decadent cream-topped chocolate milkshake. "And how!" Chris was the "big cheese" with his peanut butter burger. If he had been using 1920s slang, he would have described his burger as the "bee's knees." Rachel describes her fish and chips as the "cat's pajamas." Matt Foulger and Cardon said their meatloaf was "swell." Abby and I both thought that our turkey burgers were "copacetic."
The only person we wanted to "bump off" that night was the "dumb dora" who butt in front of us, plunked down at the adjacent table and ruined any chance of our group sitting together. One note about the restaurant is that the dining area is small and large groups need to get there at least an hour early to be seated together.
So, all-in-all, Ted's Bulletin was "nifty" and neat, coming in with an average rating of 9.0. It was the "real McCoy."
