The Nook and Shamrock’s Issue Warning Labels
November 12, 2007 – 12:38 pmExperienced Jucy Lucy connoisseurs make a point of explaining to their noob guests the dangers posed by taking a big first bite of a burger full of molten cheese that’s as hot as the sun.
However, some hungry noobs don’t listen and chomp away, causing cheese to blow out the backside and down their forearms. Lesson learned the hard way.
But what happens when you have a table full of adventurous noobs? If they’re at Matt’s Bar, I’m sure they’ll be find since Matt’s is better than any Jucy Lucy restaurant at reminding patrons of the dangers posed by aggressive Lucy chomping.
The Nook, along with it’s West 7th sister site, Shamrock’s, have taken a more formal approach of including a warning label with every Lucy basket:
Problem solved.
The Freets made a point of asking our Shamrock’s server whether he was required to initial the form before digging in, to which he was told, “No.” Perhaps there is some sort of wait staff / kitchen staff power-play taking place just below the surface? 
One Response to “The Nook and Shamrock’s Issue Warning Labels”
Last Tuesday at Shamrock’s, I dove into the Paul Molitor, only to have a large drop land dead center on the front of my shirt…..the waiter never missed a beat appeared with a glass of soda water and wad of paper napkins. I dabbed and the spot lifted off. What a guy!!! (Big tip came). The burger was soooo good, as were the fries. There was a table with a 6 year old having a birthday party next to us. There were men in suits having steaks. Lots of guests were watching The Twin’s game. It was a comfortable, casual, family oriented bar with really good burgers. Larger than it’s “brother” The Nook, and lacks the energy, but, has the same burgers. Loved it.
