hellisonWhy do so many resturants have 'pasta' as their only vegetarian option on set menus?
Am I the only person in the world that doesn't see the point in paying for a meal on a set menu I'm not actually going to eat any of? Not to mention the embarrassment factor of ordering a dish knowing I'm not going to eat it then having to send it back to the kitchen untouched, when theres absolutely nothing wrong with it.
And of course the mere suggestion that I skip the meal and just come along for the drinking has caused Horror and Consternation among the others, who seem to think Eating Out is the Holy Grail of Social Activities or something.
Am I also the the only person in the world who doesn't particularly enjoy eating out? Yes I know this is because I have Odde Tastes. But is it really such a crime to prefer indulging my odde tastes at home and eating food I like to having to pay good money to pretend to eat food I don't like and then having to apologise to the staff for having ordered it in the frist place.
GNAH.
Fucking Christmas.
Bah Humbug to it all I say!
