“La Cocina”

I’m not postive, but:  
"what was the name of the restaurant the Jerry’s current grilfriend wanted to go back after she taught him to express his emotions, causing the fight that led to them breaking up. Elaine also suggested they go there, bring Jerry to tears : “What’s this salty discharge?”

As far as I know this is not the response to “Kramer’s Answering Machine Message”.

I admit there could be more than one, but I invite the other response as well.

Actually, I believe the “spitter” was Keith Hernandez (“That was one Magic Loogie!”) and the spitting incident was in response to a derogatory comment made by Newman about the quality of the game Hernandez had played (“Nice game Hernandez!”).

I got nothin’ on Roger McDowell.

No. You are incorrect. The powers that be would have you believe that, but McDowell was the second spitter on the grassy knoll.

Who is Kramer’s ex-roommate that owed him money?

I repeat mine:

**The Message on Kramer’s Answering Machine**

and a new one:

**Five Jobs Held By Kramer, paid or unpaid (same job done in multiple episodes count as one**
