| - So, the man needed a banana cream pie. He's been asking for one for probably about two weeks, and he's very partial to pies from The Village Inn. Tonight on the way home I decided that I would get dinner from this Village Inn, and get him his pie.
The one- star is for the fact that there is no online ordering. Now, everyone knows that I am more loyal to businesses that let me order online with ease. Unfortunately, the Village Inn has opted not to jump on this bandwagon. I had to pick up the phone, like a caveman, and call in my order. "Ooga, ooga. Turkey bacon avocado, ooga".
I ordered J's favorite sandwich, the turkey bacon avocado melt. He requested it with a side of fruit. I got a bowl of the chicken noodle soup, and a side of broccoli. Let me step back for a moment. I called and spoke to a gal named Tammy. At First, the way she picked up the phone, I thought she was going to be mean. I was on hold for just a moment, and when she came back, she was the nicest lady I think I've ever spoken to on the phone.
Fast forward my brief drive to the parking lot. It was clean outside and well-lit. The parking lot was absolutely full, so I suppose that's a good sign. I waited just a moment upon my arrival, with no greeter or recognition that I was there. However, Tammy soon came out of the back to greet me. She was just as friendly in person. My meal was ready as promised, and she took the time to show me each item, to make sure that they were to my liking.
While I thought the broccoli looked a little bit wimpy, everything else looked fantastic. And it all tasted pretty fantastic. Especially that darned banana cream pie! As far as comfort food Village Inn meals go, anyway. I would definitely order from here again. I just wish they would let me do it online.
