Breakfast Buffet?

Yes, I tried again to find a decent breakfast and usually don't have a problem when I go to Granny Cantrell's, but today was an exception. I got there before the buffet opened so was in hopes of just ordering a couple of pancakes, but the young girl that waited on me, took one look at me and "automatically" assumed I was there to eat all I could eat (just because I'm obese does not mean I eat everything I see). Anyway, she took my coffee order and told me to help myself to the buffet, so I didn't correct her (I wasn't sure you could order from the menu when they had the buffet), anyway, I knew they had pancakes on the buffet, so I preceded to get a plate and two pancakes and syrup and returned to my seat. I usually cut up about 1/2 my pancakes and only pour syrup over that half but when you have to get syrup off the buffet it is all over anything you put on your plate, so my two strips of bacon were soaked too. I was drooling by the time I got that first fork full in my mouth and then something was not right in taste-ville. The pancake had a sour taste. Like butter milk or regular milk gone bad. Anyway, I took a second bite and pushed my plate away. The girl came by and I told her there was something wrong with the pancakes. She looked at me like I was crazy and had just threatened to hand her a snake on a platter. She said, "Like how does it taste?" and I said, "Like something, maybe milk is sour. Don't worry, I'll find something else to eat." She walked away. I went back and got their French toast, it's always good, and then I went back and got their scrambled eggs with onions, green peppers and ham. All in all breakfast was good, but I hate spending $10 for breakfast when I could have gotten 2 pancakes elsewhere for half the price. OH Well! One more lesson learned.
