Only at Ruby Tuesday

Prologue: The triple prime burger at Ruby Tuesday is disappointing indeed. I really, really miss In&Out Burger. By contrast, their french fries, crab cake, and brownie were the bomb.

As Drew and I were waiting for our credit card receipt, a man who was simply awash with cologne sat down in the booth next to us. Drew and I looked at each other, faces squinched, trying to hold our breath until the receipt came.

Me: Wow, could he smell any stronger?
Drew: He smells like seriously pungent incense.
Me: No kidding.
Drew: I almost expected to see a priest waving a brassiere around.
Me: Bu-wha?
Drew: Er, a brazier. Bray-zzyurr.
Me: I'm blogging this.

The vessel in which incense is burned at Holy Mass is actually called a thurible.

I think they should have separate rooms for those that like to marinate themselves in cologne. It makes me choke. Literally. So the hostess could say, "Will that be non-marinated or, oh, my follow me to the marinated section!" lol

Heck yeah, the chocolate tallcake is the bomb! But definitely do the peppercorn burger. That's a tasty item.

You know, y'all can always buy and begin an In&Out Burge there in good ol Mississippi.

Just a little suggestion ;)
