I always expect to pay more for food when I go to resort/whatever
kind of places. That's life. But for two drinks and two huge
platters of food, I didn't think 50 bucks was out of control.
I sure could not have served that at home for less. Even including
the tip.

But, I guess my point was, roasted chicken is not something I would
think to order out. To me it's home food. Just had oven fried
drumsticks for dinner. Came out great. Another thing I wouldn't
order? Meatloaf. Or meatballs. I'm just funny like that.

$84 for a roasted chicken? Uh, I'll take the chateaubriand for two,
thanks.
