Add your own pet food peeves to the list!
My additions? Expensive faux-Chinese food and coffee snobbery.

Hmmm. I would say outrageously small amounts of food for a LARGE sum of money. Other, than that they pretty much hit everything.
ReplyDeleteAhhh i love fried onions. Every time I go to Outback Steakhouse I order their blooming onion as an appetizer.
ReplyDeletehaha those were pretty funny. And I agreee with the coffee snobbery (although I do love my Starbuck's Caramel Mocha Frappucino ^_^ ). I thought number 9 was funny because it mentioned Rocco Di- Spirito, who was mentioned in Garlic and Sapphires. Ruth did a review of his restaurant.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to add the dining hall's attempts at sub sandwiches haha
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with the foam and the community table. Personally, when I want to eat a meal I would like it to be quiet and well less "communal" if you know what I mean. And foam? I guess it would be fun to play with, but eat... well I don't know about that one.
