Best of 2000: Best Murder And A Meal

The Mystery Cafe
Imperial House Restaurant,
505 Kalmia Street, Park West
(619) 544-1600

Since 1990, comic murder mysteries and delicious four-course meals have been served up every weekend by the suspects themselves at this popular restaurant. More interactive than anything on a computer terminal, patrons participate in the dastardly doings and ask questions as the evening progresses before being invited to guess whodunit. About $50 will cover dinner and the show, but tips and drinks are extra. Vegetarian and special diets are happily accommodated.
