Well it's a god-awful hiding spot from most angles. But if you squint your eyes and believe, it's almost like the…

Two months. I've been waiting on a third one for WEEKS now. Finally got that bread one this week. It was like a gift from above.

#NotAllFerrets, okay?
This isn't a restaurant story, but it was a "WTF?" moment and involved a dumb person and food.

Why Taco Bell doesn't sell barracuda kessadealias is beyond me...
When I was in Europe, selling monogrammed thermoses, THEY would cook my steaks for me until it was tender, no matter how long it took. Americans are so lazy sometimes.
I politely let him know that I could have asked the kitchen to skip the red if he had asked me before the meal was prepared but that I was unable to accommodate him after he had started eating.
