Blimpie Burger Balderdash!

BLIMPIE BURGER...............an AA origional! It was shown on the Food Network's show Diners, Drive-In's, and Dives. Well, we were so privlidged to be customers at this infamous joint. I have to share because it's pretty funny and I want to blog about it so that I don't ever forget the experience.
Matt and I walk into this house-turned-into-restaurant and it smells soooo good. We're excited. We wait. and wait. and wait. For 45 minutes we wait. I decide to have a seat in line......bad idea. The cashier tells me "Stand Up! If this was a bank, would you sit down in line? No, I didn't think so. We have to stand and so do you!".......(delayed reaction by me)........Alrighty then! (Mind you, I'm the nicest dressed person in this joint and again, the name of the restaurant is BLIMPIE BURGER!!! And, as a matter of fact, I would sit down in line at the bank if I had been waiting there for 45 minutes!)
Some other privlidged customers walk into the restaurant and leave the door open. Another worker yells, "Shut the door. The door cannot be left opened. If you don't fit in here, wait outside." Wow. This place has some intense rules.
We get up in line to order and.......
THERE ARE RULES TO ORDERING!!!!!
1) First, the deep fryer order: french fries, fried veggies, etc.
2) Then, what size Blimpy: double, triple, quad, quint
3) Next, decide what kind of roll: plain, onion, kaiser, etc.
4) Any grilled items: onions, mushrooms, peppers, etc.
5) Just before the burger comes off the grill, you will be asked to pick what kind of cheese you prefer, if any. (This is the step where the lady at the grill made my burger and said "That looks nasty!")
6) After the burger comes off the grill, you will be asked what type of condiments you would like - please start with "wet" items like mayo, ketchup or mustard... and only say what you want and NOT what you don't want!

Oh and P.S. --If you get it wrong, you'll be yelled at and embarassed in front of everyone else and possibly have to go to the back of the line! (yes, that same 45 min. line)

So, there are some highlights of THE BLIMPIE BURGER experience. The kicker was at the end when the cashier called Matt a "naughty word" because he didn't handle paying correctly. (Cash only and do not remove your tray from the counter until it's paid for.)

All in all, the burger was excellent and I'd go back. Matt on the other hand was a little offended and might not go back for awhile. It was funny to be customers at a restaurant that prides itself on NO customer service, but still has tons of customers.
