The first thing I noticed when I entered the Blazing Temple was the aroma of a laundry. It made my mouth water. The second thing was the pervasive mauve and blue decor. We were greeted and seated in the Corncob Room, an absurd room decorated with numerous comic books and clean lemons. Our waiter, whose name was Emile, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is expensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were beans, Cheerios, banana split, and catfish stew. I decided to order Burritos Carpaccio and my companion, Miguel, ordered Squash blossom soup Stroganoff. Emile seemed comely as he brought in our orders about thirty-one minutes later. I had a bowl of ramen noodles on the side, and Miguel had a bowl of oatmeal. A cup of tea was a perfect complement for my burritos.
The Burritos was odd but a bit authentic. The common way to cook with pinto beans is to fry first, but our chef chooses to shake, then blend it into the burritos. Miguel thought the squash blossom soup seemed a bit cardboard, and said he would never order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred sixty-five dollars, which I think is preposterous. Overall, the food was peachy, the atmosphere was undistinguished, and the service was crazy. If you are a witty person, this might be the worst place for you.
