So I can't figure out if it was just because I was overly exhausted or just because I had driven forever but I was totally turned off by the food last night at the Erie in Port Jervis, NY.
We had just finished what seemed to be the longest trip ever from Florida and we needed to refuel. Every meal I have ever had at the Erie was delish and I can't really say that it would totally deter me from eating there again, but I know that what I eat will totally change.
We sat down and received our drinks and our appetizer. We always go for the blooming onion when we eat with mom because she totally loves it. That came out pretty quick as we were the only one of 6 or 7 tables at the place.
We did receive our main course in a timely manner as well but I am not sure if the order was put in right. I asked for my burger rare figuring that I would probably get it medium rare and much to my dismay, it was medium well. My mom asked for the fries well done and that didn't happen. And lastly, we were sitting at the table for at least 10 minutes before the waitress came back and we were able to ask for ketchup. At this point, Adam had already finished his burger and was probably ready for a nap.
Tables began coming and sitting down and it seemed like our waitress was a little overwhelmed but didn't come back and ask us how everything was until we were almost done. I don't know if it was an issue with something in the kitchen or not, but when I want rare and get almost well...I am not happy.
So will I ever eat a burger again at the Erie? Probably not because to them, medium well is rare...
