A FUCKIN CANARY!! posted:my family stopped at a sizzler once during a vacation. everything was so salty that after about a third of a plate my mouth was burning from all of the salt and i couldn't continue. the family next to us had a 400+ lb teenage daughter who repeatedly shoved food into her face as fast as she was capable of, threw up on the floor, took a minute to recover, then went back to the buffet for more food. her parents didn't think this was unusual and were kind of just "oh ha ha how cute" about the whole thing. Ok none of that happened but that's cool

Pharmaskittle posted:oh sweet baby child honey no, picadillys is alive and well here in the south My sister and her husband used to occasionally eat at Piccadilly Cafeteria but not anymore. You carry your tray through the line, you pick out your own items, you carry your tray of food to the table- it's a cafeteria, not a full service restaurant, right? You don't need to tip a server that only brings you your drink, right? Oh, honey. They noticed someone at another table tipping and realized they had been stiffing the waitstaff for years. She's feels so bad about it that she can't go back. Interesting, Piccadilly now has an Emergency Services division that can roll in with a mobile kitchen following disasters.

Yeah I still leave a dollar or two at buffets and stuff since, while I am barely getting any table service, I know the staff are probably still dependant on tips since this is America. Especially at Chinese places since their waiters are probably doing even worse than the standard.

I would never set foot in a sizzler because they don't welcome you with big fat yeast rolls https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j37XT2d5M3g the steak in this ad makes me almost as uncomfortable as the dad WE LIKE FOLKS LIKE YOU. COME INSIDE. NOTHING TO FEAR.

That's Quincy's steak is a weird combination of realistic and overly perfect. And the hand that puts a cherry on the sundae dips a finger in the chocolate, ick. Still, all these vintage ads make me wish I had a decent local place for cheap steak and giant, starchy sides.

When I was like 12 years old my dad and I where riding in the car when a radio commercial for Sizzler came on. My dad then said"I've never been to a sizzler, I don't think Ive ever seen one of those places around here". Just when he said that we stopped at a red light across the street from a Sizzler. That's my Sizzler story, Ive still never been to one though

Are we forgetting that Western Sizzlin exists or are we the types that call it Sizzler without knowing there's a difference?
