Went for lunch on the last day of work because its close and I basically just wanted to get home and start my holidays

Factory operator had curry trio, ate the butter chicken and left the other 2, they looked terrible and apparently tasted worse. Apparently had to stop at Maccas on the way home to use the facilities cos he didnt think he would make it.

Secretary had salt n pepper squid, looked like it had been frozen and coating was a stodgy mess.

I had the churrasco duck, not great but better than the other 2

3/10

Probably on the banned list now

Could've been worse, though...

I found my first grey pube the other day, it was in my salad.

As if there isn't enough to worry about in the world these days we now have to start manscaping salads

They don't do kids meals/ burgers except for a cheeseburger which was overpriced crap.
I had a chicken burger with fancy cheese and fancy lettuce which was pretty good but it was small compared to the price.
Missus had a beef burger with all the trimmings which was quite good as well.
Kids shared a beef burger like the missus.
Both kids had an Oreo milkshake whilst I tried their Henry Ale's x 3.

Total was about $110 less the 25% which made it about $82.
Not cheap but will go again.

7.5/10

So assuming the 2 shakes and the three beers were 25% percent of the bill, then it cost around $82 for three hamburgers. Yowzers.

I kind of don't get the fancy burger thing. Now don't get me wrong, I like a good hamburger, and I'm all for tricking up the standard issue burger with some fancy ingredients. But at the end of the day it's a just bun stuffed with greasy meat, salad, other bits and bobs, and some cheese. Given a choice of driving across town to one of the hipster burger joints and paying twice for what I can get at the local take-away, I'll take the latter every time.

Whilst the new-school burgers can taste amazing, the bog-standard burger is still reliable and tasty and IMHO not worth the upgrade as a general rule.

Bonus points for using "bits and bobs" in your post.
