I worked in the Buffalo area, and went with friends once or twice a week to lunch. It was the same place. First few times I went, I got a menu, the two of them did not. I thought it was strange, but figured that since they went a lot they had the menu memorized. About the 12th time there, I didn’t get a menu. I thought it was weird, but then I kind knew the menu. Then lunch came and I hadn’t ordered it, but we were talking, so I ate it and it was fine.
But the second time I was WTF?!? I asked and got told by the server that they had remembered what I ate and went from there. The process was: if I wanted to order, when we sat, ask for a menu. They sometimes had specials that were different (not just a marked down chicken dish) then we got menus to see them. Otherwise lunch appeared. It was really kind of nice that they knew what we liked and brought it. We seldom had the same plates which was also interesting.
And here it is almost 35 years later and I still remember lunch there. Miss you Jenny and Dave.
