Seriously.
This is just a SLICE of the type of shit we have to deal with.
I told the FOH manager…”Ya know, some other restaurants go to a ‘limited menu’ for ‘concert weekends.’ She ‘oooohed’ and scratched her chin. 🤔😏
I drove an hour away to get gf burger buns, Italian garlic bread and waffles. They didn't have the waffles, so I ordered them for next week and will do it all over again.
Let's put a positive spin on this:
They trust that it is good. Because I can tell you, I would rather drive an hour for good food I can eat than bad food that is near by.

on a hot day too!
The main reasons I dont go out to eat except on special occassions:
a) I have too many food allergies that would require so many mods its not fair to staff.
b) I have wound up in hospital ER's in Anaphylactic shock from servers/staff who forgot that the X ingredient, which I asked about, was actually in the dish I ordered.
So I save everyone the stress & time and eat at home except for specific restaurants I know and have been to for years.
I forgot a rare one (oof) that I'd never encountered before; this happened Friday during dinner rush -- bartender comes back and relays a message vis a vis a burger called "the Squealer" (half MA ground beef, half house-cured bacon) "Please cook it VERY well-done cuz guy has an allergy. There can be no pink." 🤔 🤷♂️
I told her dude should eat something else but proceeded to hockey puck the damn thing.
AFAIK dude turned out okay.
🤷♂️ 😎

That's insane. its not the server's or cook's responsibility. I would just order something else from the jump.

Ummmm hmmm.

Numerous jokes and references were made -- esp. to the Simpson fugu episode, despite not being exactly analogous lol -- as you can imagine.
