Note: If all garbage looked like this we would have a cleaner Noe Valley.<br /><br />My son was fascinated by the poorly drawn Vargas girl, he kept asking me what she was doing and where were her clothes?! My reply, "eating hot sauce and selling BBQ" his reply, "she's sexy".

This is extremely reminiscent of the Perrier label art I saw on their bottles when I was in France a couple years ago: On the front of the label was a girl in the same pose dressed in green with something to the effect of "the other side of this label will make your head spin". It was the reverse of the image and naked :)<br />I don't think the states own the rights to this style of imagery... perhaps to it being controversial, though!Chipienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-40112371538018145592009-04-26T20:26:00.000-07:002009-04-26T20:26:00.000-07:00Re: Noe Valley, SF "fact check" from above:

I think it's quite an honor for words to find their way into the culture. It is interesting to me when words are borrowed. It's also a sign of acceptance.

(giggle) <br /><br />I do have to agree with the comment on saying a restaurant "opened without an inspection" without the facts to back it up - not so kosher.

This is a huge presumption to make and a potentially damaging one. Fact check anyone? <br /><br />A pinup like this is a slice into American pop culture, which is the era from which this cuisine comes. Dismissing it as "white-trash" and "tasteless" really seems to be uninformed about the many facets of our rich American culture. I think the menu cover shows imagination and is true to the era.<br /><br />A pinup like this was quite common in the 50's. This is reminiscent of a female figure being tattooed on your grandfather's arm. This image I think is classic American mythology, more like a close relative of the mythology of a mermaid. <br /><br />And, the food is unbelievable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-48340658768996048632009-04-26T09:37:00.000-07:002009-04-26T09:37:00.000-07:00Maybe cheap white trash advertising doesn't appeal...Maybe cheap white trash advertising doesn't appeal to everyone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-15792198874824881462009-04-25T13:58:00.000-07:002009-04-25T13:58:00.000-07:00Wow - you are a pretty serious prude.Wow - you are a pretty serious prude.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-14934472435099874842009-04-25T11:29:00.000-07:002009-04-25T11:29:00.000-07:00that's tastelessthat's tastelessAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-82953395236015946032009-04-25T10:43:00.000-07:002009-04-25T10:43:00.000-07:00That's tastyThat's tastyRLnoreply@blogger.com
