I didn’t find it mean-spirited. To me Gold was just setting expectations about the eccentric aspects of the place before raving about the food. He convinced me that it’s worth putting up with the monkey business, which previously seemed too much for me to be involved with.

I am stunned that people are reading it any other way.

Heck, I am in the monkey business demographic that he is talking about of and I still had a good laugh about it!
