Guest guest Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 Ew. Did you send it back and ask for a marinara? I would have. But then, I'm such a beast.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 From where I was sittin' I could see through the open window to the kitchen staff; they didn't look very chef-like to me. I could have sent it back, but felt it risky having heard a few tales from kitchen workers here on this list. *lol* Next time I am going to ask more questions. Thing that gets me is, I should know better! And it drove home the truth again that we just rarely get served as good a meal out in public as we can prepare for ourselves at home. I know many vegetarians lament over our lack of dining-out options; how most of us grow weary of seeing the only veggie sellections on menus are gardenburgers served on substandard rolls with a side of greasy fries, or an iceberg and pale tomato salad. ~ PT ~ To be able under all circumstances to practice five things constitutes perfect virtue; these five things are gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness and kindness. ~ Confucius, philosopher and teacher (c. 551-478 BCE) ~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~~~~> , The Stewarts <stews9@c...> wrote: > Ew. > > Did you send it back and ask for a marinara?

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 Actually PT, formerly I'd complain that " the gardenburger served on substandard rolls " were served with a bland assortment of steamed veggies INSTEAD of some good ole fries or onion rings, LOL. I eat plenty of raw veggies and such at home....I'm out, give me something GOOOOOD! I'll pass on the peas please.. give me them there stuffed jalps with gooey cheese....

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 Oh yeah! That's true. I wasn't meaning to diss those fries and onion rings...and jalap poppers, don't get me started! Mmmm But sometimes the way they'd fix the G.Burger, the fries were the best thing on the plate! Steamed veggies? Who really eats those anyway? *lol*~ bleh ~ feral ~ Each man takes care that his neighbor shall not cheat him. But a day comes when he begins to care that he does not cheat his neighbor.
