I’m At The Wrong Drive-Thru But No One Seems To Care
December 27th, 2006
[At El Pollo Loco’s Drive-Thru]
Them: “Welcome to El Pollo Loco, may I take your order?”
Me: “Yeah, can I get two beef meximelts…”
Them: “Okay…”
Me: “A bean and cheese burrito, with sour cream…”
Them: “Okay…”
Me: “And that great Nacho Bell Grande thing?”
Them: “Anything to drink?”
Me: “Pepsi? Oh, and those cinnamon crispas for dessert.”
Them: “Okay. Anything else?”
Me: “Can you read back my order?”
Them: “Beef melt, bean and cheese burrito, nachos, pepsi and a churro.”
Me: “Well, I guess that sounds about right.”
Them: “Please pull around to the second window.”

I’m too overwhelmed by being the first commenter to say anything even remotely clever.
Wow, that’s a great excuse for not having anything clever to say…

Too bad, El Pollo Loco food is good but sometimes you want to eat really unhealthy food at dirt cheap prices.

I would have tried to order a Chalupa, and I have no idea what I would have gotten for that.

You should have ordered the spaghetti basket.

How accommodating the drive-thru guy seems to be. I’m moving to where you are. Here - he would be telling exactly where you could put your chimichangas.

I’m with you, they got your order relatively close.
And in my book, close only counts for horseshoes, hand grenades and fast-food orders.
