“Cashless business” and of course they want me to leave a tip 🙄 I’m on a high protein diet and the pictures made it look like there was a lot of meat on the sandwich but one thin slice of turkey ain’t doing it for me. I’m still hungry and all I ate was carbs and veggies. I won’t be back. - lindsey gill
