The Perfect Place For A Coronary!
EDITORS' CHOICE, FLORIDA, HEALTH & BODY, IMPOSSIBLE DEMANDS, RESTAURANT, USA | HEALTHY | SEPTEMBER 19, 2020
A friend of mine and I are hanging out on the weekend in the next town over, and we stop to get lunch at a deli that’s just opened up that someone else I know has been raving about. The place is small, with several tables close to where you place your order, and all of said tables are full. We walk up to place our orders.
Server: “What can I get you guys today?”
Me: “Can I get a [Special] on white, with no mayo and extra onion?”
Server: “Sure thing!” *Turns to my friend* “What can I get for you, sir?”
My friend is a bit of a picky eater, so it takes him a second to respond. And he tends to like meat and cheese… a lot of meat and cheese.
Friend: *Still skimming the menu* “Yeah… Can I get [Sandwich], no veggies or condiments, with double meat, triple bacon, and quadruple cheese? And some salt.”
The server gives him a strange look and I just snicker.
Me: “He’ll have a heart attack on a bun, basically.”
The server and my friend laugh, and one of the tables behind us pipes up.
Random Person: “Just so you guys know, we’re off-duty.”
I turned around to see who was talking to us; seated directly behind my friend and me was a group of off-duty EMTs, still in uniform! My friend, the server, and I all cracked up laughing for a good minute, and so did the group of EMTs. One of the funniest stars-aligned moments I’ve had to date!
