Dinner Delays

The family had a late lunch today. Then Momoko and Kit Kat had a funnel cake. So we planned to eat late. The girls came over to our room around 8PM. We headed down to the hotel restaurant. I had a big credit there from booking so many nights at the hotel. We waited a while at the empty hostess station.

After getting seated, we waited even longer to see a waitress. But we could not bolt. I had a big coupon. Little Kat and I ordered sodas. We also ordered a crab dip appetizer. Momoko got a pair of crabcakes. Kit Kat got all you can eat ribs. I got shrimp scampi. And Little Kat got chicken on top of pasta.

The crab dip came in a bread bowl. It was worth the trip and delays. They brought Kit Kat what looked to be a full rack of ribs. Little Kat and my meal came with garlic bread. Momoko and Kit Kat got rools. Service was slow all around.

This was one rare instance that I gave a 10% tip. I usually give around 15% tip for lackluster service. We had non-existent service. However we all left full. And the meal was half price due to my credit.

Early Risers

Normally our family sleeps in on the weekend. It is to make up for a hectic weekday schedule. Yesterday Momoko scheduled some service on her vehicle. The appointment time was 9AM. Ouch.

I was actually the first one up. In preparation for the early service visit, I went to bed early. Then Momoko got up and we went to the dealership. Some slacker was sitting there blocking the service bay entrance.

On the way home, Momoko and I grabbed some breakfast. When we got home there were no kids awake. However Little Kat must have heard us come in. He came down to see what was up. In an hour the service was done. I drove Momoko back to the dealer, with Kit Kat in tow. They wanted to go shopping afterwards. Luckily I got a bit of sleep in before the afternoon. I needed it. My bro came over to watch some movies. And the cats at work had problems and were calling me the whole afternoon.
