Dinner On The House!

Today we went to Logans Road House for supper and both our meals, plus dessert, were on the house!!! On Mondays and Tuesdays there is a special of two meals for $12.95! We ordered our usual 6 oz steaks, mine was medium and Jerry's medium well. Tossed salad/ranch dressing on the side for both, baked sweet potato with butter/cinnamon for me, veggies on a skewer for Jerry. Delicious hot rolls come with the dinner. When the waitress brought our steaks she asked us to cut into them so we could see if they were cooked to our satisfaction. Mine was a little pink, just the way I like it. Jerry's was even more rare than mine! So the waitress took it back to put on the grill. We waited and waited. I ate about half of my food and Jerry ate a few bites of his and then we waited some more. Finally his steak was returned to him, very well done, but he didn't complain. A manager came to make sure we were now satisfied and Jerry mentioned the steak was very well done, not medium well and that his vegetables were now cold. He apologized and said he would take care of us. We were finishing eating when another man came, I think a higher up manager! He asked several questions of us and then said it's their policy to take the vegetables back with the steak to warm them again. He apologized again and asked if we like chocolate and peanut butter! He said he'd order dessert for us. Then he said because we had ordered the special of 2 meals for $12.95 they would pay for half of it and give us the desserts. We thanked him and he said he hoped we'd come back again. When the waitress came to give us the bill she said there'd be no bill, it was all on them. So we explained to her what the manager had told us. She went to check and came back saying No bill! So we thanked her and left our tip! By the way, the desserts came in little pails, like the ones the peanuts are in only very small! We brought ours home. I only ate a few bites of mine, it's very rich!!! So that was our latest experience at Logans Road House! We will go back again!!! Thank you, Lord, for a resturant that is trying to please their customers. Help us to always be Christ-like in our reactions to mistakes made affecting us. I think we were in this situation but let it be a reminder to us in the future as well.

On Friday Sept. 14, to Celebrate recieveing the keys to our new home in Colorado Vel and I Took our daughter, Lisa and her husband Doug and son Justin to the TEXAS ROADHOUSE about 20 miles from our new home. Everything was very good and the food was cooked perfectly. I had to pay the bill in full. We did not order desert. Too rich. Maybe YOU should have gone to the TEXAS ROADHOUSE in stead of the LOGAN ROADHOUSE? Just kidding.
