    When Nick asks the waiter if they dip the cheeseburger and he replies "if you want it", I got the impression that if you ordered a cup of coffee and asked for it to be dipped, they'd figure out a way of making that work.

    don't think I'm a fan of the wet bread. but I think, like most people have mentioned here, the sauce would be better off the side so you can pour it (or dip in it) later. I still prefer the bread to hold its shape while you're taking a bite out of it.

    • @normandea
      @normandea Před 4 lety +3
