Hungry anyone?

Today was pretty low key- I think I've explored the area as much as I can until I learn a little bit more from my co-workers and apartment staff. However, I did attempt to stroll a little more today and came across a "Pollo Campero," a Guatemalan fast food restaurant that has franchised throughout the world. A Guatemalan friend of mine that I met in high school reached out and suggested that I try it so I figure why not today! It's actually a pretty good business from what I read briefly... it sponsors the largest Central American program for children with cancer and also works with the community to improve education and health!

But anyways, main part of the story... I walk into Pollo Campero ready to whip out some spanish. I start talking to the woman and start ordering my meal. I won't lie..I wasn't 100% sure what she was saying... but i THOUGHT I had a general idea. When she said the cost of my order I was a little surprised. Don't worry..it all made sense when the order came out. Now I thought I order a 6 piece chicken tender like meal. But instead, I actually got 2 6 pieces, 2 fries, 2 sodas, and 2 sides. So naturally, the American goes and sits down in a restaurant full of locals with food for 2, maybe even three. Now to add on top of this chuckle I was getting from my pure screw up... I go and sit down at this table. I notice the staff is staring at me. I begin to look around and realize everyone is eating their fast food on legit plates with appropriate silverware. APPARENTLY, Pollo Campero is 50% sit down restaurant with a waitress that takes your order and 50% fast food, or at least this one is. So as I continue to eat..a woman comes over to me with a plate.. puts it in front of me.. then takes my fries and chicken out of my hands and dumps it on the plate, says nothing and walks away. Ladies and gentlemen... welcome to my life lol
