On doing research, Walkabout Wednesdays is $13 for 6oz steak OR chicken with adult sized fries and a domestic beer or fountain drink. No real need to use this kids menu hack

Just buy a steak and cook it, damn.
Yep. It's cheaper, better quality meat, and you can cook it however you want it.

I've been seeing that 18% is now being shown as the minimum tip nowadays. Am I the only one that still sticks to 15%? 18% minimum is just kind of ridiculous as a baseline, things are expensive enough as it is. (I do tip 20%+ if the service is fantastic though)
Ironically I tend to tip more the less I spend. Percentage wise anyways. Especially like the Chilis $10.99 deal the waiter was on it the whole time with multiple refills and dealing with my kids. Really nice restaurants with multiple staff I tip well as well. But these middle grade restaurants that think they are much more than they are and charge a lot more than they should I'm much less generous. The stupid surcharge bumped it over the edge. I'm tired of businesses pushing off costs to the customers. Instead of paying their own employees or eating the cost of things like credit card fees they expect us to pay for it.

I'd rather buy New York Strip Steak, Prime Beef, 1 Per Tray, 0.4 - 0.93 lb [walmart.com] and cook it on cast iron pan at home. Super easy and better value. $17/lb

I have a question for you and for everyone who cares to answer. Here in CA the minimum wage increased a few weeks ago, and most restaurants reacted and upped their menu prices. My wife and I regularly go to our favorite sushi place that is now more expensive than it was before the minimum wage adjustment. We always order the same items. Would you feel bad about tipping less now because the wait staff is getting more money from their employer?
The $20 minimum wage only applies to fast food places that have over 40 locations. And yes, you should tip the same percentage you did before. The owner isn't passing that increase along to the servers. For the record, on July 1, CA restaurants and other businesses cannot tack on a service charge, resort fee, etc. It must be included in the price you see.

I refuse to tip. Tipping is a scam. Servers should be paid properly by their boss.

God bless Northern California. You're either rich and can afford a $50 steak, or you're the working poor and can barely afford your monthly rent.

I agree and why is it in the past 15% is acceptable and now people expect 18% minimum?

It is not the pandemic anymore and wages definitely went up by 3% or more from the pandemic so why are we still expect to tip more?

That and food prices went up, so that 15% is alot more of a tip today. Its not like food prices stayed the same so now it needs to be 18% to account for inflation adjustment.

Maybe YOU can, but I will 100% guarantee I cannot.

Was 10% originally, didn't get to 15% until the 70's 80s timeframe. Frown

They used to have this, nearly identical, deal at Longhorn. Looks like August 2023 was the last time I got it. We'd do one adult steak meal and three kids meals.

Looked at my last carryout email from there.

Kid's Sirloin $9.99
• Kid's Steak Temps: Medium Well
• Side Choice: Sweet Potato
• Butter
• Cinnamon/Sugar
• Kid Beverage: Cranberry Juice


I take full credit for causing them to remove it from their menu. Sorry everyone.
I do this all the time when we order Longhorn for lunch at work. You can choose the temp and the side (loaded baked potato for me).

The cheeseburger kids meal at Longhorn is pretty solid too, and it's $7.99 in my area. It's a lot bigger than I expected for a kids meal, probably about 1/4 lb.

You can also order a loaded baked potato as a side for $2.99. I often will order a kids meal for lunch and then an extra baked potato for dinner or lunch the next day. In my area the toppings come packaged individually so it stays relatively fresh.

Likely because a kid has no damn idea how they want their steak and if you allowed them to get say a rare steak they'd scream unless their parents taught them proper steak temps and flavors.

So much easier to just go "well done" and keep it moving
I'm thinking it's CYA. It's tough to cook such a small steak and not overcook it, although as you said most kids (following in the parents' footsteps) will get well done anyway.

I'm "converting" my kids from well done - that's what my wife orders in the rare instances she orders steak. Then they complain it's dry and tough. Well duh. Now my oldest (who really likes steak) orders medium.
