Right this has happened for the final time!!!

I guess its good that I've made this decision considering my diet starts tomorrow wink ubblol but basically I just can't stand this anymore, now some of you may think this is petty but well I actually had a mini eruption in the kebabery (for any people that arent english and dont know what im on about, the kebab shop also sells many others fried servings of crap such as burgers/dogs/chicken/salad and chips.

So anyway here is my curse and quite simply I've had enough, I have the misfortune of absolutely detesting cheese, I mean I really hate the stuff, I dont like hating it cos pizza looks and smells so good, but cheese urrrggghhh! so anyway onto my Kebab conundrum, EVERYTIME i go into ANY kebabery or the like and I always ask for the same ( Can I have a burger and chips mate) they always ALWAYS!!! put cheese on the burger, now why?? did i ask for a [censored] cheese burger!!! no i didnt i asked for a [censored] burger!! if i had wanted a cheese burger i would have said CHEESE!! but no they have to be smart arse's! now the second part of the curse is (and granted this doesnt happen as often but definetly the majority of the time) i ask for a buger and chips and not only do they put cheese on it and then look at you weirdly like its your problem when u go no i didnt say i wanted cheese, but they also dollop [censored] loads of salad and mayonnaise, burger sauce, everything! did i say i wanted salad? could they not have asked would you like salad, no they assume!!! grrr sorry guys but it really annoys me, cos ok im not that unhealthy, i dont mind a bit of salad, but not in my burger, in my burgr i want meat, and bun, and some ketchup thats it! there is no harm in them asking if you want something but no they do it first!

So anyway enough is enough, I am now at war with kebaberies, at least MacDonals the heathens that they are ask hamburger or cheeseburger!

Ok I believe I'm done now for the moment

P.S. I didnt bother to do a search for a thread about this cos im sure no one would have written about such an obscure thing but no doubt UCOF will find it within the space of 12 hours I think.
Goodnight everyone, may your burgers be cheese free for a long time smile

nah, i expect cheese on a burger, and salad, sauce etc. i think that it fits the decription of a typical burger. in australia at least. i'd be peeved if i had to ask for a burger with bun with a pattie, salad, cheese, sauce.... if you know they always give you cheese, specify burger no cheese, jsut in case. i think your just being a big wuss. ubbtickled

Well no, if you want the 'whole shabang' then i think you should say cheese burger then they say you want salad and then they do that, why should i have to say burger plain?

And anyway maybe I shuld have added this but I always say plain burger, nothing on it, yet they still do it, now i know the majority of kebab owners arent the most fluent in english but come on!! if i ask for a burger and they say you want salad that would do me just fine, i'd just say no thanks but no they have to stick cheese then salad on it, bastards!

Yeah, I don't hate cheese that much, I can take a small amount on pizza... but in Oz... everything comes with cheese. I had the misfortune of working in Mccensored and there, the hamburger is called a junior, and the cheese burger... is just a burger. I'd get asked for 10 burgers and 10 burgers I'd cook, then get, "where's the cheese??"... you didn't ask for no cheeseburger...... argh!!!!!

I used to be indecisive, but I'm not so sure now.....

i'm over here stateside wondering what in the world you crazy folk are talking about...kebab?? i started thinking about the turkish doner kebab i had in Leipzig that gave me the runs...and then i was like, wait now they're talking about burgers?! *confusion*

then it dawned on me--you mean a fastfood joint...ha! why didn't you just say so? wink now i'm not so dense as to not know that chips are fries (fish-n-chips, eh? ubbloco )...but salad? and i'm thinking burger, fries AND a salad...man yall are some hungry people!...

but no! you're talking bout lettuce on your burger.

weird culture shock, folks...at least stateside i know when i ask for a burger (ketchup, lettuce, pickles only please) and fries i get what i ask for cool

definitely bowel moving

soooo good and i really like doner kebabs but turks must have intestines of steel--that thing tore me up!

yeah yeah Americans gobble gobble lots of food yadda yadda--i know smile i personally HATE that! when i go and order food i don't want something the size of Texas on my plate, i just want to feel satiated.

my euro-side is expressing itself i guess--bout half my family lives in southeast germany, so i guess they must be rubbing off on me wink

(In the news today a local shop was burned to the grond, police have no leads except for a witness saying she heard someone yelling censored cheese as the building went up in flames)

You'd get told to learn some manners, the magic word is 'please' wink

Or possibly, you'd get some blank stares and some german spoken back to you if they don't speak english tongue

But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

you know what's funny is that the last time i was in germany i was never taken for the tourist i was...i just would get really odd stares when they'd sprattle at me auf Deustch only to have me reply coherantly in english. (my verbal abilities in german are abominable biggrin)

you'd probably get some guy looking at you wierd, and then saying, "was haben Sie gesagt? Sprechen Sie Deutsch, bitte!" wink

actually, you don't want a burger here - trust me on that one - they use total crap meat - the meat on a McDonald's burger being about 5 times better if you can beleive that (there is only one place in Berlin I'll eat burgers, and that is a sit down place where all the food, even the burgers, is totally awesome). But a request for burger and chips would land you with a peice of something approximating meat of some sort between two slices of a bun (perhaps some lettuce and tomatoes on it, but they will ask first) and a little paper tray full of "pomme frites" - and a quizical look from the guy behind the counter wondering if you want something to go with it like ketsup or mayo. They always ask before adding anything - even onions or salt. If you don't ask for cheese strait away, 95% chance they won't even ask you if you want cheese, and you sure as heck won't get cheese without them asking if you want any first. Germans are 100% intolerant to things that are not totally up to their specifications, so no imbiss owner is going to assume anything. Besides, cheese is a bit expensive here, so they are more than happy to not give you any unless you are paying extra for it.

as promised my rant about british kebabs:
why on earth do they have to be soggy and salty piece of cr@p. it makes you feel like you had a pint of saltwater the next morning...........
our kebabs here are soft, fresh buns with nicely spiced chicken meat and fresh veg, with a perfectly complimmenting garlic- joghurt sauce to make it a culinary tango in your mouth.........

cool
