They have an interesting ordering system which consists of around 8 predesigned meals. It is assumed that one will want a burger, fries and a beverage. Word of warning- there are no chairs at the order counter. I had to bring one from the dining area while I decided what to order. After contemplating the menu for about 15 minutes, I decided on the Number 1 Meal, at which point I got up and approached the counter where I would place my order with the cashier. When I finished, I went back to my chair but a staff member had taken it to a table for me.
Now, I love the fact that patrons are allowed to fill AND refill their own drinks. This is wonderful! I can have more than one fill, and I don't have to keep getting the same thing. After I drank my first large DR. Pepper, I decided to switch to vanilla shakes. This machine isn't as conveniently located as the soda machine but I still went behind the counter three or four times for refills.
Now to the food. I absolutely love reviewing chef's personally inspired dishes. And the chef creating meals at this McDonald's is among the great chefs of Bainbridge, Ohio. This burger, I highly recommend. It was a work of art: 2 all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun. "Big Mac!" I was dying to find out what the "special sauce" was made from. I'd guess something like French truffles, saffron, cardamom, and pigmy goat cream. When I went to the counter to ask the chef, he wouldn't reveal his secret. He tried to fool me by saying, "I don't know, man. It squirts from a gun." Yeah, right buddy! Some joker behind me said, "it's ketchup and mayo! You're holding up the line!" Alas, the secret of the sauce may never be revealed to me but at least I have my blissful memories.
Now to the french fries. Oh my goodness! One of these days, McDonald's fries will be known all over the state. At the risk of sounding lewd, these french fries are better than a french kiss. They are toe curling spine tingling. And that little bag of ketchup they give you, FOR FREE, is the perfect amount. Although it was a little challenging dipping more than one fry at a time in to the bag.
Now I really wanted one last free refill on my milkshake but it must have been getting too busy for them, because the manager politely asked me to leave. I assume they needed my table. But she was very polite. In fact, I can't remember the last time I talked to someone that was so polite. She even worded it politely- "Sir! I'm going to have to politely ask you to leave."
"No problem," I said. "Just let me finish refilling my milkshake."
Anyway, the restaurant is fantastic, the chef is a genius and the manager is remarkably polite. I love this place. I would have given it 4 stars but I gave it 3 because I ordered nachos and they said they didn't have any. But I know they do. Everybody else in the whole place ordered nachos! Every time an order was ready at the counter, I'd go see if it was mine and the guy behind the counter would say, "That is nachos!" And of course I ordered a burger, but I wanted nachos.
Also, I left a $5 tip for my waiter but I think I saw a dishonest patron swipe it as I was walking out the door. I hope next time I go there my service doesn't suffer because they think I didn't leave a tip.
