A Miami doctor is suing Houston's after a bad experience with an artichoke there, according to Short Order. Huh? Apparently Arturo Carvajal, a legit MD with a family practice in Hollywood, ate the entire artichoke, leaves and all, and then suffered "severe abdominal pain and discomfort," leading him to the ER, where an "exploratory laparotomy" showed, you guessed it, artichoke leaves stuck in his bowel. Lawsuit alleges that the server didn't "explain the proper method of consuming an artichoke." Guess they don't teach that in med school. [SO]
