my boring vent

We rarely go out to dinner, so when we do, we view it as a treat. We try to pick something that tickles our fancy or isn't just a chain type place to eat. We're going out with friends tonight, and they picked the place. It's a Scottish bar/tavern that's part of a group of 5 similar restaurants in the city. Their food is blah, nothing I'd ever get excited about. Just a place you might happen to eat in if you're out for a drink. I just looked at the menu, and everything on it makes we want to wretch. The guy who made the plans doesn't respond well to feedback, so I guess we just have to go with it and suck it up. To top it off, they picked the one restaurant of this all alike group that is downtown, so we have to pay for parking and fight the crowds that are going to the big music festival happening this weekend. Oh well.

    The real question is, when it's time to put on your dining kilts, will you each wear your own family's tartan, or should you all match the same color scheme?!?!

    My boring vent is that I ate Chipotle and am about to explode from needing to fart.

    I totally understand.  That blows.  Get there early and have a couple of drinks.  That will help numb your tastebuds to the sub par food.

    I'm certain these will be loud enough to be heard through the door.

    Is there any way you can casually suggest a different place ? Something like "Oh, I heard restaurant x is really good and we've been dying to try it..." Fallin-do the cough to cover up a fart move.

    I'd speak up.  Say your coworker went there and was sick for a week.

    That's what I was thinking - any other time you'd probably happily but on your appropriately selected kilt, throw some back and rejoice in Shephards Pie. Early pregnancy + Scottish food = green face

    For pete's sake they have three different menu items that are a variation on a Scottish egg. Not to mention the other couple that's going (the guy that planned it lives here, other couple are in from Indy) own an organic produce home delivery business. Like they want to eat a fried cod dinner.

    Fallin is right, as usual. I'd never play that card. Plus, I don't think we're telling that news to friends just yet.

    I give up.  Pour some A1 steak sauce over everything then.
