Sweet Tea

Last week I went to lunch with some of the ladies from work. I rarely go out to lunch because I am so cheap and have yet to find lunch other than pizza for less than $10. I decided to splurge to be one of the group, especially when they told be we were going to a place that served southern food. I had to see that one.

The restaurant was Fat Annies and it was far from southern that is for sure. Fist lets start with the sweet tea. I was so excited to see it on the menu, I mean really excited. Like you thought I just won the dang lotto I was that excited. However, what goes up must come down. My words to the waitress "oh gross, is this instant tea, yuk." All everyone could do was laugh at me. I'm sure I was making a face that only I could. The waitress claimed it was brewed tea but I find that hard to believe, unless you brew instant tea. Lord help me when summer is finally here. What am I gonna do with out my sweet tea. Guess I'll have to make my own and carry a flask.

So really the only southern things on the menu were loaded tater tots (I mean who else but people from the south can try to gussy up some dang tater tots) and pecan pie. Don't worry I schooled the ladies at the table that this wasn't really a "southern" restaurant. They didn't even have one piece of fried chicken anything. Not even chicken fingers, how in the heck can you call yourself a southern restaurant without fried chicken damn it!

Good thing I made pulled pork for the Christmas party, or they really would of been clueless when it comes to southern cuisine.
