Steak N Shake

Why does Steak N shake deserve a blog post? Because EVERYONE has a story about bad service at Steak N Shake. Literally. This might seem like a pointless post, but is always something funny.

At brunch in Uruguay, Stacey, Han, Elizabeth, Jordin and I probably conversed for an hour about our bad Steak N Shake experiences. Some of these included...

Never having our order taken and giving the waitress a list of what we wanted
Receiving a hamburger with a cup of nacho cheese instead of a "cheeseburger"
Getting every order at a table of 10 wrong
Receiving pink and uncooked chicken
Cold french fries

And many more. Then, on our trip to Córdoba, Stacey and I told Armeen and Lauren that we had over an hour of poor Steak N Shake stories. THEN WE CONTINUED TO HEAR THEIRS FOR ANOTHER HOUR! Craziness. Pretty funny how Americans can be so dissatisfied with service, and how Argentines always have such poor service and would never converse for long about such things, nonetheless blog about them!
