Chow Looks Like Chicken to Me

I went to a Thai restaurant after last night’s debate, and the first thing I noticed on the menu was this:
Disclaimer: Prices and ingredients subject to change without notice.
That’s pretty broad. I ordered a chicken Pad Thai, four stars, with a side of peanut sauce. It was listed at $8.95. As it happened, our server brought me a chicken Pad Thai, four stars, with a side of peanut sauce. And he charged me $8.95. But what if he had delivered, say, a hamburger with two grilled cheese sandwiches for a bun, and charged me $80.00?
I can’t say I wasn’t warned.
translation: we can't afford to reprint our menus every 6 months.
A Thai restaurant and THAT is what you are worried about?!?!? I would focus on the ingredient disclaimer. That is scary....
You can, however, say that your digital camera sucks balls.
Did the chicken taste surprisingly nutty, say like it had been scampering about trees eating nuts?
Fnarf @ 3) Agreed. Enormous chicken balls.
Menu costs as they are known are a reason prices are sticky and don't fluctuate lock step with underlying economic factors.
in the scenario you mention though, i wouldnt patronize a place with that warning.
Sure you didn't eat Cat Pad Thai? Cat tastes like dark meat chicken.
How often do you eat out? Because ECB just said middle-class people can't afford to eat out much anyway.
If you got a burger with two griddled cheese as a bun and it was only $80, I would think you'd won some type of restaurant lottery, that's just me though.
