Hooters

For Christmas, Mike and I received a gift card to Hooters from one of Mike's brothers. I'm against everything Hooters stands for, so I was scratching my head over this. We even considered re-gifting the card to a friend, but instead we used it yesterday. I know that using the card the day after we got it makes it sound like we just couldn't wait to go there, but really, we needed to go out to Target anyway and since it was Sunday, Mike's mom was able to babysit Leilani for us. Because there was no way we were taking Leilani there.

As it turns out, it wasn't that bad. I was surprised that I really enjoyed the food. In fact, I'd go back just for the food. It was pretty yummy. And I was also surprised to see a lot of families with children there. In fact, it was mostly families.

The server on the other hand was exactly what I expected... 

This first part is hard to explain, but I'm gonna try... As we were being seated, the server took us to a booth and stood right in front of the end of one of the seats. So Mike sat down on one side, and I just stood there because the server was in the way of me being able to sit down. She proceeded to look at me like I was stupid. I eventually had to tell her that I couldn't sit down until she moved out of the way. Strange.

Then, every time the server came by our table, she would only acknowledge Mike. I'm sure they're programmed to flirt with every man that walks in the building, but c'mon! Know your customer. Do that crap at a table of six guys chugging beer and eating wings, not at our table.

On the other hand, she was quick with our food, drink refills, and check. Everything in that regard was pretty good.

I guess the experience as a whole wasn't too bad. It could have been that we just got a randomly annoying server. After all, bad service can happen anywhere. I wouldn't be opposed to going back. Like I said, the food was surprisingly tasty. And maybe the whoriness of the server will be toned down next time. Who knows.

And one question: What's up with their socks?!?
