Last night Liz and I checked out the local Texas Roadhouse. This one happened to be located at the Newington mall. The other day at work, some employees came in and gave Liz, and her co-workers, some bread and envelopes to be opened at the restaurant on a particular week. So this gave Liz and I an excuse to go.
If you’re not already familiar with where it’s located, it’s easy to miss. It’s tucked away on a hill in the corner of the parking lot. Depending on which way you’re coming, it’s not hard to drive right on by - especially if the sun is in your eyes.
The food was standard and the service was pretty good. The manager came by to see how everything was, as usual, but he wasn’t creepy, weird, or overbearing. For a few years I used to frequent this establishment in Muncie with a group of friends from college and our server/waitress always tried to sit on my lap…totally unwelcomed. At least I never had an incident like at the Applebee’s in Marion.
So at the end of our meal the manager came by to open our special envelope. He kind of made a big deal out of it and I gave him my best “I care” attitude. So he rips open the thing and plops down a free admission to the local roller skating place. I said, “oh, ok.” He then told me that prize kinda sucks and then gave me a coupon for a free entree next time we come back. Not too shabby.
