text: I will be honest I avoided this place for years because the name is just ridiculous It is hard to say It makes me sound lispy and I just do not like it Now my fairer halfwho finds herself quite often having to talk sense into me when I am too analytical and ridiculous in this case concerning a restaurant nameis from New Orleans and explained to me the story of Chris Steakhouse and of Ruths subsequent purchase of Chris name and thus the lispysounding restaurant that would become Ruths Chris She also forced or strongly encouraged me to eat at Ruths Chris to cure me of my aversion to eating here nnI really do not crave steak often but I enjoy eating one here when I do The asparagus is pretty damn tasty and the stuffed mushroom caps are to die for And you could actually die if you eat too many of them My main reason for visiting Ruths is to drink scotch with my lady who because she is awesome also drinks scotch and while away the afternoon chatting with the friendly bartenders and gazing at each other through hazy bloodshot eyes Mushroom caps and Macallan are the way to a womans heart my friends Yes indeed
