I’m traveling up the coast. I found a pizza place online and ordered my dinner over the phone:
Me: I’d like to order a Stromboli roll.
Guy: Just One?
Me: Oh, I don’t know, how big are they? Are they much food?
Guy: Well, how many do you want.
Me: I don’t know, is one a meal? Will that fill me up?
Guy: I don’t want to make just one, I’ll waste the leftover dough
Me: So is one pretty small then?
Guy: We make them four at a time.
Me: Oh, is four an order?
Guy: It’s OK, I’ll make you just one.
Me: Is one enough for dinner?
Guy: So you want two?
Me: …Um, Sure.
I typed the address into my phone and hopped in my car. The directions brought me to the mall. I ordered my dinner from the food court.
Great story, Jeff!! 🤣🤣🤣 Like a scene from My Big Fat Greek Wedding
Did it at least taste good?

Not especially great. And the smell is really stinking up my hotel room. Gotta get the remnants out of here. 🙂

That sounds like something I would do too! Sorry to hear the food wasn’t great, but it gave me a chuckle.

so was two enough?
I guess all these food places are trying to get business any way that they can. They may not have had the best food, but it sounds like they did a nice job of promoting themselves online…

I could have been fine with one. I ate one and a half because it was there.

I do the same thing, and regret it afterward…

Road trip food is always an adventure! Loved the dialog. You’re more patient than I.

Like always, I check into the hotel and then look for food impatient and hungry. Not a great combination for me. From now on, I’m planning out my meal before I travel.

Oh dear. You might have to research better 😂 I hate paying for bad food. And then having to eat it as there’s no other alternatives.

Every time I arrive in Vermont to pick up my daughter, I’m hungry and impatient. You’d think I’d learn my lesson to come up with a meal plan before I make the drive. This incident probably kicked me over the edge. I’m sure I’ll plan ahead better next time. The breakfast we got in the morning more than made up for my error. It was delicious.

I’m glad! We tend to google yummy places in the car on our road trips. Though most times good other times we misses out as in the country over here they closes early or don’t open at all on the slower days like Mon-Wed.

It looks good! This is coming from a person who doesn’t eat dough or cheese and would LOVE to stuff my face with both 🙂
