Default I won't be going back

The last time I ate at Applebys (several months ago) I ordered a steak and a salad. The waiter ask if I was on a diet. I proudly said yes, Atkins. He said "I don't know why you people bother to eat out." My DH was as shocked as I was. I decided to make my own food and take my lunch every day.

Thanks for the tip about Applebee's. Who would have thought that they would use a marinade and then when you ask for something specific, they didn't tell you up front. Thanks again

Actually Lynn, Before we left my dh decided that maybe he was teasing and that I was being far too senitive. I personally did not find it amusing and he didn't sound like he was teasing. So to answer you question yes, my dh left a tip.
