Edge City by Terry and Patty LaBan for June 30, 2021

I see nothing amazing about a $400 dinner and that was their share.

They sure changed their attitude from the beginning of this arc. The cost would outweigh the enjoyment for me. And I thought that was their problem at the beginning.

I’m glad they are happy with the dinner!

I refuse to pay $34 for a lobster roll. (Average tourist-trap price around here).

I had a $50 plate of lasagna in Las Vegas, one of the cheapest things on the menu

It was about the size of a $5 stouffers frozen lasagna

Everything about the restaurant was amazing, but I will never spend as much for a single meal again as I did that night

My wife and I used to try a new restaurant every anniversary. One year we went to a very nice (IE expensive) one. Along with our meal we ordered a Caesar Salad. The waiter built it at the table with many gestures and flourishes. When he was done,, he folded his arms, stepped back, and backed into a busboy with a load of dishes.

Oh c’mon, it couldn’t have been THAT good, Abbs.

I’ve never had a better restaurant meal than what my wife and I can prepare at home. We eat out only to enjoy not having to cook, occasionally.

In my internet dating days, my date suggested a place near her. The bill, with no alcohol, was $116.96. I kept that receipt taped to a kitchen cabinet for several years.

There was no second date.

So they just let this jerk invite them to have dinner with him and then make them pay?
