Pei Wei Surprise. . .

So. . .Brett is temping at my office a couple days a week

And his favorite restaurant is Pei Wei, so he suggested it for lunch today and I agreed. I have recently discovered that my favorite dish at Chinese food restaurants is chicken low mein. So, being both frugal and I’d like think smart, I ordered the kids low mein for right at $4.00.

Brett had some kind of hook up and knew the manager who gave us each a free drink with our meal. Then we sit down and a few minutes later, Brett who ordered without me got his food before me. . .about ten more minutes go by and I’m beginning to wonder where my lunch is.

We get one of the other manger’s attentions and he goes to check on my food. . .and it turns out that they gave my kids low mein to some other table. . .to make it up to me the guy brought me a $10 gift card and apologized when he brought me my food. . .

Talk about sweet, I can eat 2 and a half more times for free, if I don’t get a drink, unless Brett is with me again and hooks me up. . .totally wasn’t expecting free Pei Wei when we went to lunch today, but hey I’m not complaining.
