Not only THAT but we're going to Ruby Tuesday's

I don't like Ruby Tuesday's. I HATE their napkins. They're abrasive and napkins should NEVER be abrasive. I mean they have decent crab cakes and a fairly nice salad bar, BUT THOSE UNHOLY SQUARES OF CLOTH RUIN THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE.

I went past Ruby Tuesdays this morning and I flipped my shit

My Ruby Tuesday's bad idea

Usually I go for the Triple Prime burger which is excellent, even for a burger aficionado like me. Today, however, I was full from my 4th chili which I had for lunch. So I was swayed by the photos in the menu. I custom-ordered a combination of two dishes: the petit fillet and lobster tail pair, and the bacon-wrapped shrimp and shrimp pair. I wound up with a shrimp and beef combo. Bad call. Plate arrived: three small shrimp (20-25 size) on a skewer, one medium fillet, and a lake of runny mashed potatoes. Most appalling was the steak. I can't quite place the flavor, but I'm going with "barnyard". Not the lovely grass-fed flavor of free range beef. But something more suspicious and less tantalizing. And the texture was an odd combination of mushy, mealy and chewy. The pepper paprika and salt spice blend neither enhanced nor improved the experience. The shrimp were more edible, but hardly the promised peach-glazed confections promised in four-color process in the special seasonal menu. Bacon was run of the mill and dry. And only three? Really? Let's not talk about the potato lake. All in all, I was unimpressed, as you may have gathered. Service was prompt and polite, so no complaints there. Next time I'm sticking with the Triple Prime bacon cheeseburger, one of my *favorite* burgers anywhere.
