My daughter wanted milk, so they just lassoed up some cow, pulled her in the back door, and told all the kids in the place to get on their hands and knees and take an udder.

Restaurant took us 5 hours to get through, they ran out of menus and made us guess the exact names of the dishes we wanted in a game of pictionary, except they were all gimmicky and named like "Big Wad of Beef Burger" and our waiter hadn't been in art school long enough to realize he was a terrible artist.

server: so by making a corral out of the garlic mashed potatoes, using the steak to dam up the remaining gap, and reinforcing it all with the steamed vegetables, you have a nice gravy lake in the center of your table that won't spill out everywhere!

me: OK, but won't the gravy start to flow everywhere once I begin eating everything that's containing it?

server: *shrugs*

that's at the good locations. at the bad ones, you're picking your food off the griddle in between all the spatula flipping and cleaver chopping.

it's going to start as just a mere restaurant novelty twist of "bring your own dishes", but it's going to end as "bring your own dinner, too".

I could maybe have forgiven the restaurant I was in for not having any dishes.

But any sentiment in that direction on my part was quickly extinguished when they indulged that one patron in reliving his fraternity years, standing on his hands while his family propped him up, so that he could buttchug not just his pre-dinner cocktails, but also his soup, breadsticks, salad (with dressing, thankfully Italian), ravioli, and two servings of tiramisu.

The waiter runs up to me, screaming as the hot soup burns his cupped hands. I tie a bib around my neck and lean back, mouth agape, and he gratefully pours the chicken noodle broth down my throat. He whimpers, rubbing his scalded palms together. I hear the pained cries of another chef in the back reaching into the oven and trying to pull out a pizza with his bare hands.

"Sir," cries the waiter, "please! Do not come in here! We have run out of everything!"

"Nonsense, my good man!" I exclaim, "I will have one of your finest meals, please."

One of the busboys flattens out some dirt to create a makeshift table, and puts a rock down for me to sit on. The chef, openly weeping, brings me a napkin full of grass and small stones. I smile, and bite down, teeth shattering and blood overflowing onto the napkin. A waitress faints. The sound of a small child crying fills the air, from somewhere out of sight.

"I-Is it to your satisfaction, sir?" asks a trembling shift manager.

"Lovely!" I say, coughing on a grub.

Later, in the hospital: "You know, I didn't mention it because I didn't want to be rude, but service was awfully poor."

If our current theories about the ultimate fate of the universe are correct, then the Restaurant at the End of the Universe really will have run out of everything except a nearly infinite void of waste heat just unimaginable fractions above absolute zero.

Zero stars. Everything’s too cold and they’re out of stars. Would not return.

I toast the world's last scone over the glowing heat of an irradiated mutant. carefully, ever so carefully, i carry it over to the wrought iron table i created in the image of some delicate parisian filigree, half-remembered from either a cafe or cemetary gate. the table itself was reclaimed from a cemetary gate, so it would only be fitting, but this is only the table! behold the wine i have squeezed from the eyes of my foes, bottled in a yes that is a shampoo bottle, thank you, but no cracks! none at all. that's a lucky bottle, my friend. ah! but what is lacking in this breakfast, if not a dollop of butter!
Quickly, to the last operating cold storage bunker in my shelter! See upon the shelf, that delicate porcelain dish, the elegant silver knife, untarnished by this hellish wasteland? and, yes, that is the last tablespoon of butter left on Earth. Slowly, ever so slowly, we'll carry it through the twisting maze built by who knows what God, for who knows what purpose? Safety or damnation, either feels the same locked in the bowels of the underground, so yes I accept the fate handed to me, as my hair falls out in clumps. I would rather die an Englishman than live a worm feasting on rot and death!
Stay here, I'll pull back the vault door. Mind the wind, it's been gusty ever since the bombs fell. There's but ten yards of rubble between here and the table so if you'll hand it to me I can- NO! You FOOL! You UTTER TWIT! you broke it! IT'S RUINED! All cracked and dusty and, oh the BUTTER'S MELTED! Do you KNOW what you've DONE? There was time! There was time now, for me to enjoy a scone!
