Travel: June 2008 Archives
There's a McDonald's across the street from Hitachi Data Systems' European Education Center here in Waardenburg, NL. OK, I know most of yomu regard it to be an abomination to eat at the Plastic Arches while in Europe, but it's either that or the company cafeteria (we're in an industrial park).
I go up to the counter and order "Menu 2" which is the Quarter Pounder Value meal. (And no, unlike the French and "Pulp Fiction," the Dutch call it a "Quarter Pounder." The assistant manager rings me up (€ 5.50), and says something foreign to me, in English:
"We are cooking your Quarter Pounder, please have a seat and we will bring it to you."
whoa :-)
