The dinner I had last night was not bad. I had a Southwest turkey melt
sandwich and a small bowl of vegetable soup. It was 6 bucks. I ate one half
and took the other half home for the little lady. That's some serious value.
The server got short changed though. I gave her a 22% tip but I usually will
tip at least 2 bucks.

OTOH, I've never had a good cup of coffee at Denny's. Places like that
should have one guy doing QC on the coffee. It's that important. McDonald's
can make a good, consistent cup of Joe and sell it for a buck. They
understand the importance of a proper cup of coffee.

McDonald's coffee here is not good. I have tried it personally but people
who have tell me that it always tastes like it has been in the pot for a
very long time. Then again, people around here love Starbucks. I have been
told that the best coffee is at a Chevron station near here.
