This Is All It Takes To Be The Number One Restaurant In America

Leave a comment

IMG_6543.PNGCHICAGO, Illinois (The Adobo Chronicles, Indianapolis Bureau) –  The verdict is in.  The top fine dining restaurant in all of America is in Chicago!  It’s called Alinea.

Alinea bested hundreds of other highly-rated restaurants  from San Francisco to New York, from New Orleans to Orlando.

The list was released by TripAdvisor, in its 2016 Travelers Choice award for restaurants.

Now we know it doesn’t really take that much to make it to the very top of restaurant favorites.

For Alinea, just a small green leaf sprinkled with what looks like sea salt, and a side of a very thin slice of lemon.

Trump Properties Reject Gender-Neutral Bathrooms

Leave a comment

IMG_6501.JPGLAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles, Las Vegas Bureau) – From New York to Las Vegas, from Miami to Honolulu, Trump hotel properties are refusing to adopt gender-neutral bathrooms despite the growing clamor among LGBT and rights activists.

The clamor arose from a controversial new law in North Carolina (HB 2) blocking cities from allowing transgender individuals to use public bathrooms for the sex they identify as — as well as restricting cities from passing nondiscrimination laws more broadly.

img_6499Also known as the Public Facilities Privacy & Security Act, HB 2 puts in place a statewide policy that bans individuals from using public bathrooms that do not correspond to their biological sex. 

Instead of adopting gender-neutral bathrooms, all Trump properties have now renovated their public bathrooms to segregate nasty women and bad hombres.

Manila’s Chinatown

BEIJING, China (The Adobo Chronicles, Hong Kong Bureau) – Philippine President Rodrigo Roa Duterte begins a three-day official visit to Beijing Tuesday, armed with a solid proposal to resolve once and for all the territorial dispute between his country and China over Scarborough Shoal in the West Philippine Sea, a.k.a. South China Sea.

Malacañang told The Adobo Chronicles that Duterte will propose to the Chinese government a deal in which China will give up its claim over Scarborough Shoal in exchange for the Philippines relinquishing ownership of the entire area on which Manila’s Chinatown now stands.

China is reportedly very interested in having full jurisdiction over the world’s oldest Chinatown.

The Chinese government plans to convert Manila’s Chinatown into a Hong Kong style enclave and make it a world-famous shopping and tourist destination.

The Philippines, on the other hand, will have full ownership of Scarborough Shoal, including all the benefits that will be derived from its oil-rich resources.

U.S. Secretary of State was reported to be scratching his head over this shocking news from Beijing.
