What he didn't know was that there is a completely different University Avenue in Palo Alto. JONL went up to the counter and asked for ginger honey. The guy at the counter asked whether JONL would like to taste it first, evidently their standard procedure with that flavor, as not too many people like it. Just give me a cone. The guy behind the counter insisted that JONL try just a taste first.
Some people think it tastes like soap.
I eat Chinese food. I eat raw ginger roots. I already went through this hassle with the guy back in Palo Alto. KBT caught his eye and winked. At this point, RPG clued me in fully.
