First their food got held up because of some snafu's with Oliver's food (cinnamon allergy). They wouldn't serve anyone until they could serve everyone, even though I begged them to please just let the rest of the table eat while they sorted out his food. Then another night, the slightly drunken father in law wanted Darrell & I to join in the conversation with his daughter in law (pregnant) about how she should just stay home with the baby. This despite the fact that he knows I am a working mom and make more money than my husband. Thankfully, they didn't show up to the regular dining much after that. This time, we've requested a table alone citing the allergy issue, but really, I just hate the awkwardness of dining with strangers!LittleMoreEachDayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00973383472461317915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3829140705577782116.post-24384225732703441862016-01-15T08:42:30.447-08:002016-01-15T08:42:30.447-08:00I agree the big table would have been much less aw...I agree the big table would have been much less awkward.

I think if we had realized what was going to happen we would have just waited for one of those tables to open. The people behind us had 4 people so they got seated at their own table :( Sorry about the tater confusion - the picture is of my husband's hashbrowns. My home fries were more like you described, but they might have been deep fried. I have also heard what I had called cottage fries.

I'm surprised the restaurant doesn't give people the option; I wonder how many customers they lose because of it?<br /><br />You are making great food choices, and it's all so yummy-looking! Des's hash browns comment makes me chuckle; I agree, those are definitely hash browns. Home fries are what I call potatoes that have been chopped/diced and then pan-fried, also known as "breakfast potatoes" ;)Christina @ Love Yourself Healthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530940931626447230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3829140705577782116.post-37596441953800643412016-01-12T11:28:17.513-08:002016-01-12T11:28:17.513-08:00I despise community seating in restaurants, and Po...I despise community seating in restaurants, and Portland is allllll about the community seating.
