The point is, what are you really getting for $2 of food?? What kind of fish?? Gross.

You know not of what you speak. It was haddock. It was delicious. Nothing gross about it unless you just don't like fish.

$2 of food? What does that even mean? I might be able to buy that small piece of fish for $2, frozen at Walmart, in a bag with a bunch of other little pieces of fish, but since when is that how the restaurant experience is measured?

Of course I could get it cheaper if I wanted to cook it myself and eat it in my kitchen.

"What does that mean?"???........With restaurant food cost at ~30%, you got ~$2 of fish. Frozen, battered, haddock can't be an ideal fish. Jus say'n sounds gross to me. Not sure what Walmart has to do with this conversation.

Of course I could get it cheaper if I wanted to cook it myself and eat it in my kitchen. Nice to know, irrelevant but nice to know i guess.

Where else can you get a lunch for $7.00 and have a nice view. Give me a break. Even a burger in TV is $15.

So you haven't had it, but it sounds "gross" to you because it was only $6.99....

like I said, "you know not of what you speak"... it was delicious.
