Took my wife to Binions Steakhouse, Horseshoe Cincinnati, last night for dinner. That place is just awesome. Had Oysters Rockefeller, the salad wedge, and a new york strip. Delicious! The oysters were amazing, melt in your mouth great but the last one had a strong seafood taste. I should have spit it out but swallowed and continued on without another thought.

After dinner I watched and coached my wife on video poker for a couple hours. I played for about 10 minutes earlier but decided I would let her have the evening and watched her. I think she liked that ;)

On the way home I started getting what I thought was heartburn. After 30 minutes of trying to burp that shit up, I started feeling really bad. Now I was fighting back puking. WTF? Was it the blue cheese, was it the garlic in the oysters, was it the FISHY TASTING OYSTER?! As soon as I thought that, I really had to fight off barfing. It had to be that oyster.

My wife thought I was putting on, or being a pussy, because she was feeling fine and ate the same thing. "Yeah, but you didn't eat oysters!"

I told her I was gonna hit the baking soda and water when I got home so I could burp this shit up. She said we were out of baking soda so I decided to stop and get some. She went in to get the BS and I got out of the car to walk around. Not 30 seconds went by and here comes the upchuck. I ran behind my car and let it rip. OMG, I have some relief now. Whew!

About 10 minutes later it all started again and fought it off until I got home then ran to the bathroom where I spent the next 30-45 minutes removing my dinner totally from my gut.

As much as I love oysters, that might be the last one I ever eat. Holy shit! don't get sick eating oysters. Not fun at all.

That is all, I thought I would share and maybe save somebody else from the same ordeal.

That might be the first time I have eaten them other than raw. I'm wondering if I might have suspected something had it been raw? Would I have noticed a smell? It was definitely the last oyster I ate that tasted funny. Not fun getting sick from them. :nono:

On the course!
You'll still eat them. This is just the "hangover" from puking making you say that you won't. It's not like you get sick every other time.

I had a bad experience with shrimp many years ago, and I wished I was dead! I knew they smelled funky, and I ate them anyway. Less than two hours later, I was down for the count!

:facepalm:


Worst kind of 'throw up sick' you'll ever get is seafood sick.


We'll have some good ones at Harrah's in a few weeks!..............(If I can have some luck tomorrow at the craps table!)

Monday

Went to a seafood restaurant in the National Harbor (McCormicks & Schmicks) on Monday night for a private event. Open bar, bacon wrap shrimp, crab cakes, crab dip, crab imperial, you name it they had it with waiters coming out with platters. They had a huge rectangular setup with over 100+ raw oysters on it. They had many different kinds as well. Ate them all night and absolutely loved it. I did feel a bit queazy the next day from all of the alcohol and seafood, but I know I would do it again in a second. Best part of the evening was that it was all free, pays to have a wife in the hospitality business....

You gotta spit that shit out... I had a bad one at one of the restaurants in the Venetian. Was sitting at the bar. I spit it out and told the bartender. He offered more oysters or free round. I took the booze...

boys, my uncle is an attorney who was disbarred for prescription abuse use while in court. anyway, he always said that it is impossible to sue for food poisoning. have you ever done it and won.

if you did i hope you cleaned up.



There is a old saying that if you have to get a attorney, get one that
has the ethical compass of a jackal. That way you will be well represented.

I think it will just attract more people. I'm not a huge fan of the place as it's a manufactured city, just trying to bring in cash. The casinos will bring in a range of different class people in there I am sure. It will be good for the big hotels out there like Gaylord, Western, the loft, and Wyndham. Never been a fan of the restaurants out there, but I gotta admit they're getting better. Have always loved Gracies, they serve excellent chinese/asian fusion or whatever you want to call it, but talk about expensive.....
