Diners sue over snail that 'exploded'






Two Northern California businessmen have taken a Marin County seafood restaurant to small-claims court after a snail allegedly "exploded," spraying their faces and polo shirts with hot garlic butter and ruining one man's birthday dinner.
They say legal action could have been avoided had the eatery expressed sufficient remorse.
The 59-year-old plaintiffs (photo), Chadwick St.-OHarra, an information technology executive from Danville, east of Oakland, and Steve Righetti, a Sonoma businessman who owns an automotive shop in San Rafael, are suing the Seafood Peddler, in San Rafael's historic Canal area, the Marin Independent Journal reports. The restaurant's insurance company denied the men's claim, so they headed to small-claims court, which handles cases of $7,500 or less. 
The escargot cost $7.99.
