(photo by spinedoc18)We met up in North Carolina with PHD's cousins and some friends who are all visiting from Israel. We decided to meet them at a restaurant called "Stonewall's" (probably named after Stonewall Jackson). Here is a snippet of the phone conversation:
PHD: The restaurant that you wanted to meet us at is closed on Mondays so another restaurant called Stonewall's was suggested to us.
Cousin: (with HEAVY Israeli accent) Stone wall? What is this stone wall?
PHD: It's a restaurant with a huge salad bar. It sounds very nice.
Cousin: Ok, so it is called stone wall? Like the Kotel?
PHD: (laughing) Yes, like the Kotel.
I giggled and just shook my head. Only family from Israel could have come up with that one.

So what did they think of the "kotel's" salad bar? That was the first thing that popped into my head after reading this because their expectations must have been waaaay off from reality.
And let's be honest: the American tradition of salad bars and buffets is kind of odd. Or at least I think it is.
