Clayton’s “Tendee Tips”
- “The true Chicken Finger Aficionados know it’s all about the plum sauce.”
- “You know it’s going to be good if it’s all tendees on the top and you can’t see any fries.”
- “You know it’s good when the plum sauce is gone and you’re dipping the fries in there.”
- “If it’s in a strip mall, it’s probably good food.”
- “Don’t sleep on bowling alley or curling club food.”
- “Make sure you put your plate at the end of the table. Lets your server know you’re done.”
- “If a place has plastic cups, it’s going to be pretty good.”
- “Don’t cross-sauce plum sauce and honey dill.”
- “Do cross-sauce BBQ sauce and honey dill.”
- “Veteran move: cut open your tendees, safety first. Don’t burn your mouth.”
- “The fries, you know they’re going to be good when they have the potato skins on both ends still.”
- “You know the sauces are good when you ask for the lids, so you can bring them home.”
