When meeting with friends for good times and over dinner, it is essential you request a fun waiter.
Lucky for us (or was that lucky for him) we were appointed this guy at the local IHOP in The Colony, Texas.
Mmmm, the tilapia was seasoned to perfection along with its nest of sliced red potatoes.
Hollandaise sauce? Ewwww.
Usually when I go to IHOP, I order a Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity. Actually, I don’t remember the last time I did not order the Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity as it is almost a tradition for me when I visit this particular restaurant. Stacks of pancakes and sweet breakfast sausage alongside bacon and eggs cooked to order–what more could one ask for?
You want to know the real reason I ordered a Rooty Tooty Fresh ‘N Fruity for the first time way back when? I ordered it because Tootie off of The Facts of Life was my icon and a version of her name was in the title of the meal. There. I said it. Please don’t judge me.
Of course, ice cold Dr Pepper goes with everything here in Texas.
Just ask Chef E of Food~Wine~Fun–she’s a native Texan and joined in on the good times at IHOP. I haven’t had this much fun since I pretended I was a rich woman and toured the model homes in Lantana, a master-planned community. Just ask my Friend Who Will Not Be Named that went with me to meet Chef E, since it was her who I sprayed with a shower head inside a walk-in tiled shower in that multi-million dollar home. Good times…
A rare photograph of me…take it in while you can.
I dont know why, but I really like this angle.
Next time you go to IHOP or any other resteraunt for that matter, don’t forget to throw a little salt for good luck.
If it works, you may get a crazy spirited waiter like this one. Yep, we were definitely the lucky ones.
You’re a goof! I love it!
