Went out for lunch - alone - the other day.
Kinda payday/ end of term/ Easter treat.
Went to the Slug & Lettuce as Wetherspoons was more than usually full.

Decided to try their Philly Steak Sandwich and Chips.
Now I knew it would be nothing like a Philly Cheesesteak! But both the connection and the description drew me to it.

Description: A 6oz flat-iron steak, served in ciabatta, with BBQ sauce, melted Cheddar, lettuce and sautéed red and spring onions – served with chips and coleslaw (asked for no coleslaw, that was about the only thing they got right).

Everything else was NO. No no no no.
The steak shown in the menu photo was a single piece of meat. Mine came in strips, which were very chewy and had gristle and fat on them.
The cheese was not lovely melted cheese, but a few grains of something solid. I say something as they had not melted in any way despite being in contact with hot steak.

The chips! About half of the cup of chips was edible. The rest are what we would have called scraps back when we went to the chipshop. They used to sell these over-fried pieces of potato off with the remnants of batter from the fish. Mucho cheapo.

It arrived.
No concerns, I was only taking photos to show you.
Although I realise the steak has been chopped at this point.
