Winging It

Have you ever eaten at a restaurant where you get the menus and the waitress gives you like 90 seconds to read the menu, and then comes back for your order, and you’re not ready? That’s rough. You never see that in restaurant reviews though.  But you see restaurant reviews all the time where the opposite happens and people say, “the hostess seated us and then no one came back to our table for 20 minutes, and there were people who got seated after us, and they got their food before we even ordered.” Just once I would like to see the restaurant response say, “Yeah, but then you got to see their food, and, more importantly, you got to see whether they enjoyed it, thereby helping you decide on what to order.”

Going back to the first scenario, sometimes I’m not ready to order but my wife is, so I say, “I’m gonna wing it”. Be careful when you say this, ‘cause I bet a lot of times when you say that they bring you chicken.
