I visited Chaplin’s Café on Sunday at around 10 a.m. and ordered a Full Breakfast. At that time, there was only one other table waiting for food, yet my friend and I still had to wait nearly 30 minutes for our meals.

It was not hair, nor from our clothing, and was clearly something that had come from within the meat itself.

Worker passed me (4th time) to clear a table at which point I got up and left. Never experienced this before. Really...
