Everyone loves that special treat known as eating out. So what shall it be tonight kids, ice cream, burger, steak? Decisions, decisions. Ever made a wrong decision and wishing you had stayed home? No doubt everyone has... A friend of mine in high school many years ago told me about working in his Dads restaurant. If someone did not finish a meal, no problem, push it into a new plate, warm it up and re-serve it. If something fell to the floor, no problem, pick it up, a little rinse and good as new. Lots of sauce or gravy helps. Hmmm. This is nasty!! And the particular restaurant is long out of business. But still, there are situations that make one grimace. Our daughter worked in a buffet style establishment during her university years. One day one of the staff had a cold and some of the kleenex this lady used somehow ended up in a salad. Ouch. Will pass on the salad... I have encountered places where after asking for less salt I got more? What? What? Or cold food, or partially cooked food,or the wrong food. It has happened, each and every one of these. And should not. But remember, that is why its called FAST FOOD, because its prepared and served - fast. So, if you don't mind my asking: Whats wrong with eating in tonight, that is, a home cooked meal...at least you can be certain if there is anything wrong, you know where to point the fingers.... Happy dining everyone....
