When you have a restaurant with a name like The Roadkill Cafe, you might expect most people to appreciate the quirky slogan for what it is; but some people may just take you seriously.
Debbie Mejia and her husband Bruce watched in disbelief one day as a guest sauntered into their restaurant with a dead critter in his arms. Although the Roadkill Cafe in Seligman, Arizona, may hint that the menu is full of unfortunate animals that fell victim to cars on historic Route 66, the cafe doesn’t actually sell roadkill. But this was obviously lost on the gentleman.
“He came through the front door holding a dead, run over – probably several times – coyote and actually asked if we could [prepare] it,” Debbie said. “We all laughed and took pictures, but no, we couldn’t cook it.”
