Okay, I’m a big time eater.  I like to eat.  I like to eat a lot of food.  Especially, I like to eat a lot of meat.  But, I’ve been noticing a trend lately, that I hope is only isolated to the individual restaurants.  A lot of the restaurants that I go to these days, they don’t put a lot of meat on their plate.  Indeed, today, when I went to eat at this one Thai restaurant in San Diego, even though it was a lunch special, on my plate, and I counted, were 3 pieces of chicken.

3 fricking pieces.  WTF?!?!!?  And these aren’t big pieces.  They’re about the size of a quarter, width, span, height, and all.  And there was 3 of them!!!  I seriously ate all of the meat after 2 seconds the plate was set down.  Now, I know, restaurants can be cheap and all, but for fricking sake, 3 pieces of chicken?  I was still friging hungry after my meal.  I mentioned the lack of ….meat to the server, who asked me if I wanted more chicken.  I wanted more, but to be courteous, I turned it down.

Same thing happened to some of the other restaurants I ate at.  Cheesecake factory.  Pho places.  Everybody is skimping back on the meat.  Skimp back on the service.  Skimp back on the decoration.  But whatever you do, leave the effin meat on my plate.  *sigh* I guess the only way to get my meaty meal is to cook it myself.

Bleh.  Time to clean up and move out of my apartment.
