waffle house literally is a short order grill where you say "I want 2 eggs over easy, a waffle, some hashbrowns, shite bacon, and toast", or whatever you want, and they give you that - and you send it back if it's poo poo. it's like eating in your drunk friend's house where you just dictate whatever you want and they greasily make it to the dumb specifications you insist on. you could be like 'slice a tomato, stack some sauteed mushrooms on it, crack an egg on it, griddle it for 3 minutes, then flip it, and smash some toast on top of it' and they'd be like 'ok, that will be $4.50! have a great day!' and you'd pay it and be happy because where the gently caress else are you going to go that will put up that little of a fight on such a stupid breakfast food request?

that sounds pretty cool actually, and I'm glad you put the effort in to provide me the context, thank you

The worms crawl in,
The worms crawl out.
A friend of friend lives in Santa Monica, on Ocean blvd. One time when we were visiting we crashed at his place. The next morning...

Him: "Hey you wanna get brunch?"
Me: "Ya sounds great, there's a million places around here"
Him: "I know just the spot"


And where did he take us? Mother. loving. Denny's.

He is also an astonishingly terrible cook. Like, salsa chicken would be a huge upgrade to the food I have seen him prepare.

Jeez, I didn't mean to set off a firestorm. I didn't say I didn't enjoy my meal at Waffle House. I did. I like my hash browns smothered, covered, peppered, and capped. They did NOT gently caress around with the amount of jalapenos they gave me, wow.

waffle house is very good at a very specific thing

dissing waffle house is like trashing your cuisinart because you can't fry an egg on it

There's no mystery when you go to a waffle house, you know exactly what you're getting. Which is good.

It's just that waffle house is bad. Which is bad.

But why wouldn't you go to Whataburger/Dairy Queen/random taquiera instead?

I usually don't go for breakfast when I'm drunk/hungover though. I go specifically for tacos, or pizza. Waffle House is neither of those things.

They always seem to cook their eggs way too loving hard, I have no idea why, but it's always a very disappointing. Also their tortillas are way too fat, who the gently caress thought that was a good idea? Nobody wants a fat tortilla guys get with the program.

I love when a customer starts yelling about how she's been waiting 20 minutes when I have a timestamp on her ticket and I can see it's been 4. I don't even know how someone is that bad at time.

If you're taking I-80 eastbound across Nebraska, there's a long stretch of road with absolutely nothing. After what seems like forever, when it feels like your mind is about to break, over the horizon you'll see the red and white sign of a Dairy Queen. It's almost impossible not to stop there and eat some lunch.

Thank you all for your time.

You don't go to waffle house. You end up at waffle house. Same for Denny's.

That said it's nice to sit down somewhere in the middle of nowhere, Ohio, and have a cook or server to chat with since you're there alone.

Maybe that's just me.

Then again, I also like a good fast food burger scarfed down before you make it back to the highway onramp.

I had one of the waitstaff do this about a month ago, usually we don't make excuses about it and just try to rectify it. The most egreriously wrong ones are customers who allege they'd been waiting 30 minutes for something when it's like 10-15 (I took the order and ran it through the system, so I know the kitchen had it)
