kokesaat Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 18 or so years ago, Udon had a Baskin & Robbins in the Charoensri Complex. I asked for a pistachio cone and a mocha almond fudge cone. The girl handed me my ice-cream in cups. I told her I wanted cones. Mai me, she replied. I equated it to going to McDonalds and them running out of hamburgers or buns. t.i.t.

pogal Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Right!......... about 10 years ago I went to KFC just before lunch on a weekday and was told they were out of chicken!!!! I was dumbfounded, and asked what was the point of opening? She replied they still had potato and gravy and french "fried". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJGreen Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 The shortage of key ingredients just gets worse here. Last night Mcdonalds could not make a Mcflurry!!!No oreo or choc bits...So i went to the next Mcdonalds... just 200 metres away and ordered a choc luv mcflurry... i got a soft serve choc dipped ice cream in return.The second attempt was not much better..she broke the mcflurry cup and the mix was all wrong...

KhonKaenKowboy Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Hey, KFC has a separate counter for ice cream, so you don't get caught behind massive food orders...and for 10 thb, they really like to see how high they can make it....no "choco-lat," but between the fairly bad green stuff and just being out of it, DQ doesn't have it half the time....both have the dip though.

Our water dept. ran out of water last week. Yes, it was a most basic ingredient. Happens 2-3 times a month. Living in Thailand = learning to cope. Good luck.

Dipterocarp Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 I have one better than no chocolate sauce. There is a chain of fast food restaurants in the midwest USA, called Steak N Shake. They are famous for their "steakburgers". You order your burger and they grill it and add the condiments you want. I went to Steak n Shake one time and ordered a double burger with cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion and ketchup. The waiter said "sorry we are out of onions". I asked, " how can a burger place be out of onions? The manager heard me and said that the delivery truck did not come last night. I pointed across the street to a Schnunck's grocery store, told him they have onions and for $3 you would not have to tell customers you are out of onions. He replied that they have to get all their supplies from the company delivery truck. I said, "you mean the truck that did not show up last night". Got one even better. A Subway in USA out of mustard. Then there was the italian joint serving a salad Caprese (fresh/soft mozzarella and tomato). What arrived was cold grated pizza mozzarella (sorry no hab). Mindboggling .

janejira Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 The last time I went to Swensen's, they were out of bananas. Another half of the menu gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkk6060 Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 The Carl's Jr. in Pattaya has run out of burger meat several times over the past few months. At least the Swensen's still had ice cream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srowndedbyh2o Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 It can happen anywhere. A few years back I went into a Taco Bell in the U.S. (Hawaii) and was told they did not have any tacos! Turned out there was a recall on their taco shells due to some sort of contaminant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
