There were tables inside the bar.

Yes there was a kind of back room between the bar and the garden which Mouthfuls reserved a couple of times.

Once in a hideous snowstorm as I recall, which Mongo brought with him from Minnesota. Thanks 😄

Significant Eater was the garden monitor on Friday nights; sometimes I'd wander back there for a smoke.

But let's face it - the farther one was away from the bathrooms in that place, the better. Because if a place's bathrooms could make the bathrooms at CBGB or Coney Island High look plush, this was the place.

Let's not forget the bathroom in Noodletown.

Unlike CB's bathroom, it's not iconically vile.  It's just vile.

[Sneakeater]

I'll never forget the first time I entered the CBs bathroom.

I was expecting it to be bad.  But I wasn't expecting THAT.

Yes, about GNYN...but, I could get through a meal there without having to use the bathroom.  A night at DBA often meant one had to use the bathroom.

I think the first time I entered the bathroom there, someone had just finished shooting up.

I haven't said it yet, but I can't see the title of this thread without thinking of the Museo de Jamón in Madrid.

It's del jamón but then isn't it also museau with one s?

[Sneakeater]

Uh oh the Regents of the State of New York are going to revoke my Spanish diploma.

You'll have to do community service at the gigantic Museo that spans three buildings in La Chopera. 

[Sneakeater]

That would actually solve several problems.

[joethefoodie]

I always thought that museo was in Barcelona?

Ain't no such thing. 

[Sneakeater]

The one in Madrid is a restaurant/shop, not an actual museum.

One of my most stupid collegiate errors was thinking that i could place out of the three years of language requirement by testing out.    So I mustered any and all of my Latin and Spanish and jumped.    Placed in the last quarter of the highest level.    Then, should that not been enough, the section I enrolled in was a Tues/Thurs/Sat  8am.    And taught by a graduate level prof who was German as first language.   He would speak English for several paragraphs, switch to Spanish and repeat.    I sat there, nodding on and off consciousness, trying to parse which he was speaking.    Not my finest hour.
