Maybe they’re just regular people in an unfamiliar place looking for a recognizable meal.

Not everyone wants to pay $500 bucks for salmon foam mousse with one ravioli artfully accented by one bread crumb.

The worst, most traumatic meal I ever had was back in the 90s at a Michelin star rated restaurant. I was left so hungry I stopped at McDonalds afterward. The champagne was incredible though.

True, and I would think the liberal elite response should be a turn off to all those poor people they claim to represent.

Yeah, and who would want to go to a snooty restaurant for 3 hours, after such a whirlwind the past few days - I believe him when he says he wants to go home!

BOL! The worst, most traumatic meal I ever had was back in the 90s at a Michelin star rated restaurant. I was left so hungry I stopped at McDonalds afterward. The champagne was incredible though.

We had the same fiasco in the 1990’s. I made a suggestion to our Professional services that save a ton of money and made money as well.

One of the asst directors, a VP said besides a nice cash bonus, he wanted to take us out to any 5 star restaurant in the bay area. I told him to have his secretary call my wife and let her pick the restaurant.

My wife suggested a 5 star restaurant that had a 3-4 month waiting list. They got the reservation.

3+ months we met the VP for dinner. We ordered Maine lobster and after a couple of small and expensive appetizers our so called Maine lobsters came out. We still laugh at what our faces looked like when we saw half of a critter the size of a medium crawdad on the plate with two small raviolis, 2 small asparagus spears and a couple of long/slender green tube like veggies.

Dessert was like a miniature cupcake with chocolate sauce and a few small berries by the side.

On the way out, I saw the vp slip something to my wife and whisper something in her ear.

As we were heading home, I asked what that was about. My wife held up a $20 bill, and said the vp told her to buy both of us something to eat at a fast food.

We enjoyed our free late dinner at Jack’s.
