Pluckers – Not So Plucky

On a whim, Jason, Julie and I decided to order-out last night. They had already had pizza for lunch, so we decided to give Pluckers a try.

Perhaps I should have known better than to order beef from a wings-place, but the avocado burger looked tempting. So, I ordered that while Jason & Julie decided to split a 10-piece order of chicken tenders.

The food arrived a little while later (though I wasn’t paying attention to the time). Jason & Julie were enjoying their tenders before even sitting down. Meanwhile, I placed my burger (and waffle-fries) on a plate since I was concerned that the styrofoam tray might become unwieldy.

On paper, the burger had it all: bun, meat, lettuce, onions, cheddar and (of course) avocado. But, it was just stone-cold. It wasn’t actually chilly, but I couldn’t detect any remnants of heat. It took a 40-second nuke to bring the burger up to an acceptable temperature — and I shouldn’t have to do that. The waffle fries looked the part, but they were also cold and more soggy than crispy.

Perhaps it was just a fluke. Or maybe Pluckers doesn’t have an expertise in beef. Either way, I don’t think I’ll buy their hambugers again, but I'd be willing to give their chicken another chance sometime.

  1. oh god, i once made the horrible decision to eat there for lunch and will not go back evar again. horrible horrible food. the only thing worse than the food was the waitress i got stuck with.

    when you see a pluckers, you should run away.

  2. I’m sorry your food was cold. I feel your pain. I made the mistake of buying 20 pcs of barbeque chicken boneless wings (really chicken strips) from KFC. They must have been sitting under the heat light all day, cause they were horrible. I didn’t like the barbeque sauce they used either so that just made things that much worse.
