- A friend of mine from college goes to school in Atlanta, and he was pleased as could be to go with me to an area Denny's. And he had a rough idea of where it was located, too, so that was helpful.
- The waiter was wearing some sort of cowboy priest outfit. That would've been weird enough, but while he was taking our order, he was standing at the booth next to us. There was nobody in that booth, so we were pretty sure that he was talking to us. It was like a covert operation. Knock three times if you want your drink with no ice. On the other hand, the booth did seem exceptionally small, so maybe his aim was just off. I had to request that my quesadillas not come with guacamole a few times before a light finally went off in his head and he said, "Oh, Guac." And apparently to him, "Guac" also means "Sour Cream", because I didn't get any of that, either. ADYONKA's toast was dry (as he requested), but it also had a little piece of some sort of meat on it. It looked like chicken. I told him to hold it between his knees. He didn't get it.
- While we were eating, we noticed an overly made-up waitress with a scarf around her neck sorting silverware. She was also wearing clip-on earrings (she took one off to answer the phone). When we got up to get our photo, we asked her to be in it with us. She refused, but offered to take it for us (after joking that it was "cash up front"). In order to get the proper angle, she had to get down on her knees, about which she had no qualms doing. When she saw that we were holding the oversized suckers in the photo, she commented that if it was a photo with suckers, maybe she should be in it.
- For those of you who need it spelled out:
- Overly made-up
- Scarf around the neck
- "Cash up front"
- On her knees
- Sucker
- That's right... this Denny's waitress was a drag queen. And quite a good one, too. Took a while for us to notice. Now I wish she had been in the photo with us.
- After visiting Denny's, we went up to Marietta to see the Big Chicken. I only wished I had known about this sight of a site before visiting the Marietta Denny's. Oh, well. We also got to grab a shot with the Colonel. If you're ever in the Atlanta area, do yourself a favor and visit the Big Chicken.
- All in all a very entertaining Denny's trip, mostly due to the hosting services of ADYONKA. Thanks, ADYONKA!
