| - Had a gift card and a hankerin' for a unique salad, this was the place!
Chose the carmelized peach salad, ordered online and drove the 5 miles to pick it up and head home for a relaxing afternoon alone (had a movie all picked out).
Friendly staff, quick service, all bagged up and I zoomed outta there.
Got home, laid out my culinary treasure... salad, dressing, crunchy toppings, bread and butter, plate and utensils... what??? Where are my caramelized peaches? Huh, that was my whole purpose for going...!!! Aaargh!
Now, do I head all the way back (salad's getting wilty -- the cold part, hot and the hot part, cold)?? Or... do I call them to let them know (what's that going to really do for the moment...)?? Do I sit and resentfully eat it because I'm hungry and it's here and I can?? So much uncertainty, angst and bitter resentment.
I sat, I ate, I felt disappointed and angry. (I tipped hella good, too!)
Later I emailed them, politely and in the "I just wanted you to be aware" way. They sent me a coupon for a free salad, that was nice.
Still don't know how caramelized peaches taste...
