We ordered, and they brought our pitcher of soda and breadsticks. No pizza. We must have waited 40 minutes, with Hick emitting more steam out his ears as the seconds ticked by. Finally, he said, "We're leaving!"<br /><br />We went to the front counter, where he said, "I want to pay for what we got, and leave. I'm not waiting any more."<br /><br />The manager came, and said, "What did you get?"<br /><br />And Hick said, very loudly, "BUDDY, I DIDN'T GET SH!T."<br /><br />The boys and I went to the car with our heads down. When Hick came out, he said, "Well, at least we got the soda and breadsticks for free."Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-27462134723758855102016-06-23T21:46:23.288-05:002016-06-23T21:46:23.288-05:00I know what fishducky means!

Our friends had told us it was wonderful. It was quite upscale--& expensive. It was one of the very few places in Hawaii where men were required to wear a tie. We got there a few minutes before our reservation time & waited--& waited. When we were finally seated, we waited to get a menu. Then we waited to place our orders. When the food came, the orders were wrong. There were chiefs all around, but no Indians. We couldn’t get anyone’s attention. The maître d’ was making a brief stop at every table. When he got to ours, he smiled & asked, “How is everything?” I replied honestly, “Terrible!!” He smiled again, said, “Thank you” & went on to the next table. Bud & I sat there with our mouths hanging open. I just googled it--it’s still in operation. I can only assume they've replaced the maître d’, the chef & the waitstaff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-937038870722238271.post-83448353975439305802016-06-22T20:42:00.269-05:002016-06-22T20:42:00.269-05:00There's an expensive restaurant here in Portla...There's an expensive restaurant here in Portland where it's extremely dark inside, but the waiters leave a flashlight on the table so you can read the menu.
