    It’s funny, because usually when the fries aren’t included at a sit-down place it’s because the restaurant is trying to squeeze a couple extra dollars out of you (maybe the sandwich is $2 cheaper than you’d expect but then you pay $5 for the fries because of course you want fries!). That stinginess mentality seems to go hand in hand with a smaller than average sandwich. But maybe my fat American ass can’t scale portion sizes.

      No, this is the thing. Compared to UK prices it was ridiculously cheap. In fact even when you add the higher expected tip it was cheap. And it was actually very nice. Just, so much food!
