So, are you ready to try White Castles yet? :Evil
A lot of mainstream fast food places that have an in-mall location don’t carry a full menu. Of course they should adverstise this fact on their website with at least a little asterisk and footnote.
Aw, I wanted to do that!
White Castles are delicious to the point of orgasm.
You mean you didn’t “… ring the bell if we did well!” for them?
At least, that’s what it says in a Long John Silver’s/A&W around these here parts.
“Lots of space in this mall.”

If you’re looking for horsey, try Taco Bell.

Oohhh Lynn. I’d be really scared to do this. Keep in mind that people you are complaining about are the same people who are handling your food. It’s not to say that everyone would sink so low as to tamper with your food, but you never know. I waitressed for long enough to know what could happen to the food of those who complained.
[Disclaimer: I am in no way condoning this practice. In fact, it’s a huge part of why I no longer work at that restaurant.]

It’s always the most irate servers who don’t double check your order that are the ones that screw it up the most.
I once ordered the ham dinner at Boston Market, and questioned if it was, in fact, ham. The server rudely insisted that it was, and no, she would not check. Silly me, I got all the way home (20 minute walk in a blinding snow storm) only to find out I had been given a chicken. (Obligitory pause for jokes about when pigs fly.) I trudged back there, made the exchange, and trudged back home.
While eating my meal in front of the TV, we saw a commercial for Boston Market. “Order the family size ham dinner”, the commercial said, “and get a free apple pie.” Hrmph. I double checked the bag. It remained relatively uncontaminated by that particular symbol of Americana.
When come back, bring fuck you BM.
Spending the night on the toilet dealing with distressed bowels is not my idea of a good time, and I’m definitely not going to pay Taco Bell for the privelege.
My personal victory of the last few weeks was finally convincing my wife to try Arby’s again. She had eaten there once and didn’t like and refused to go back (no matter how many GD Taco Bell meals I ate)
I told her they had a club now so she tried it.
Now she’ll go back!
Hooray!
Nothing to do with the OP, just happy about being able to enjoy Arby’s again.
Mmmmmm… Super roast beef…
A few observations:
[ol][li]Arby’s is the king of fast food. The beef sandwiches and horsey sauce are amazing. [/li][li]We don’t have them in Ireland, and I don’t think they’re in the UK, and it’s a crying damn shame. Imagine my delight when I found one in Hong Kong. I used to make a two-stop detour on the MTR just to go there as a treat.[/li][li]Therefore you are privileged to have them. They deserve some leeway. Don’t look a gift-horse (no pun intended) in the mouth.[/li][li]Check the damn bag, silly.[/li]Better still, park the car and go in, lazy.[/ol]
OK, Arby’s has tasty food. The stuffed jalpenos are wonderful. The ‘market fresh’ are pretty good too.
But I always check my order and I always taste my drink at the drive thru to ensure it’s correct. I can’t tell you how many times a said “that’s a DIET coke, right” and they say “yes” only to find it’s a regular coke after I get away from the store. So now, I always check. It’s usually right now(McDonalds drive thrus in my area are automated where the drinks are concerned) but every time I haven’t checked, it’s wrong.
As the old saying goes:
Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.
Fool me 30 times …

A fuck you BM, huh? I thought I was the only one who was into that sort of stuff…
If by “delicious” you mean “gross and disgusting” and by “orgasm” you mean “the point of dry-heaving” then I’ll agree wholeheartedly.
One trip to that particular hellhole was enough for me, thanks.
We have a Arby’s outpost a reasonably close distance from home (an output in the vast scrublands of McDonald’s, Burger Thing, Wendy’s and Checkers - the White Castle resistance is near collapse).
It is almost within reasonable driving distance for lunch - almost. Well, not really, but at least it’s not the bland 4.
I fear it will go the way of the Legendary ‘Mr. Philly’, who once offered glorious Cheesesteaks across our fair Island (well, they had 4 stores, and the cheesesteaks were pretty decent)…
