unsolicited advice, restaurant style

Dear Brew Pub manager,

Sending out a round of shots is not going to make a table overlook the fact that their hamburgers came on moldy buns. Sending out ten rounds of shots might do it though.

Sincerely,
Your Favorite Unsolicited Advice Person

Eeeew.

I really, really hope you called the local health dept on Mr. BPM...

Oh, haha, alas that it wasn't me. It was a restaurant review I saw while working this afternoon.

Oh, ew. Penicillin + beef = not delicious.

Definitely not the grounds for a weekend special.

Sounds like a delicious special to me!

I once got served a burger without any bun at all (or roll, as we would say over here). When I asked the waitress if there would be a roll coming, she looked at me like I'd just asked her to drink her own vomit. She said their burgers don't come in rolls (although I'd eaten there before about a month ago, and they did then), but as a massive personal favour, she would see if she could find one. About 10 minutes later she came back with a stale roll.

So if you ever encounter the riddle "when is a bacon cheeseburger not a bacon cheeseburger?" you can answer confidently "when you eat it at Carfraemill".

Hah! How bizarre to not just serve you the roll. Stories of restaurants are always so strange and funny!
