Another Ogling Lunch...

... this time at Don Pablo's. A group from work was taking a visiting supervisor out before he leaves next week. The food is always good, naturally, but it was the scenery that impressed me the most.

There was this cute cubby of a waiter running about, he was about 6 ft tall, very cute, longish fuzzy hair, dark eyes behind stylish glasses, and a full beard, neatly trimmed. He sported some broad shoulders, furry arms, and slight tummy. Not sure what the chest had fur-wise, he was wearing a tee-shirt under his polo. Sigh.. he was fun to watch, too bad he wasn't our waiter. We got stuck with a perky blonde girl, but she was a good server. I made eye contact with him a couple of times, but I'm sure I was just making him nervous. My guess would be that he was a young college student.

The other bear that caught my eye was the manager I think. A bit taller than me, around 5'10", again with dark eyes, balding with dark hair, THICK black goatee, shirt and tie that hugged his shoulders and chest, and just enough tummy for a good rubbing. He was frantically running all over the place which gave ample opportunity to check out his very attractive caboose. Ah, I bet he has no idea the effect he has on the average bear admirer.

I'd say these two, plus a few cute customers, could give Qdoba a run for its money when it comes to good food and great ogling locations for lunch.

Hmmm...I guess Don Pablo's has been much more successful that I could imagine. I opened the very first one in (of all places) Lubbock, Texas. Except back then it was known as Julio's. (The parent company was based out of Lubbock at the time.) It was my first restaurant job.....got hired as a bartender (with NO experience) thanks to my brother who worked for a sister restaurant.

I then helped open their second restaurant, the first to have the Don Pablo name in Arlington, Texas. Aahhhh, the memories. This time I was a manager. I also worked in DP#3 and #4 in the DFW area until I had a run-in with the GM who happened to be related by marriage to one of the owners....but it's ok. She got hers less than two weeks after firing me when they audited her books and found there was more than cooking going on in the kitchen and showed her the way out.

Glad you enjoyed your food. Even more....glad you had some good scenery to watch. I could go for both today!

I've never worked in a popular restaurant like that, I have worked in a more stuffy restaurant when I was in college.

And the food and the scenery were very good indeed at Don Pablo's.
