overpriced food

The food was way overpriced and was not that good. I don't know what to say about the bellydancers. They aren't Lebanese or anything. They are skinny white girls that look very unhealthy.

The Mela Indian Resturant

I was working in downtown Asheville one day and decided to try something new (Indian food) it was the worst mistake ive made. The food was so disgusting, i could pronounce what I was eating. more or less the food tasted like spoiled cat food and looked like the the feciese of a llama. Dont make the same mistake i did!
