Well, hello there again PF Changs.

Celebrated 4 months of married existence with a meal at PF Changs.

It's the first time I've been back to this chain Chinese restaurant since, oh I think, '98 or '99. Reason being, the service was the worst I've ever seen. I went with a friend of mine from high school (my prom date actually). We both worked in the Copley area of Boston at the time and decided to head to the PF.

Well, three hours later we were finished with our lunch. Three hours, yes. Apparently, the server couldn't comprehend the many nuances of serving. Which is to serve your guests. Especially during lunch time. which should have been quicker than shit. And it wasn't just our table. There were 3-4 tables all looking around at the kitchen area, the bar, at each other, wondering where the hell this kid was. My thought was he was blazing a joint in the back alley forgetting the fact that he was working. But I have no evidence of that. Just a hunch.

And this was the first and only time I never tipped a server. I'm a notorious over-tipper. I understand the job of serving, and hate it so much. It's just not in my DNA.

So when Betty asked if we could go to PF Changs to celebrate our four month anniversary, I hesitated. But ultimately relented. A 10-year protest, well, that's long enough I suppose. The food was ok. The atmosphere, ok. The company, perfect. So it wasn't a total loss. But I don't think I'll be going back for another, I don't know, five years this time.
