Rice and beans for a name?


The other day I went to Bugaboo Creek steak house with my mother and sister. (We were shopping, my sis is preggo, we were starving... we had to pick the closest place.) This place is heavily themed... as... well, the Web site says it's themed as the Canadian Rockies, but I just thought it was going for "hunting lodge" decor.

Anyway... our waitress was named -- wait for it-- Jambalaya. Yup, that's right. Like the paella-esque rice meal. I tried to look at the other wait staff to see if it was a joke, like maybe they all had foodie names like "gumbo," "chile," or "macaroni salad," but all I saw was a "Lisa" and other normal names.

I even double checked the check, but yup! There is was: Server Name - Jambalaya.

Weird.
