For the first time in many years I am disappointed in my order last night. I ordered from the Duchess Restaurant (Drive In) in Fairfield. I ordered from the Drive In outside area. I ordered a “Big D” with no mayonnaise, just ketchup with lettuce tomato and onion. This came with just ketchup. I also ordered a tuna sandwich on “bread”. The woman ( girl”) asked what kind of bread. Just for your information, there’s a fairly large picture of a sandwich on bread right on the kiosk. I went back and forth repeating what I wanted. ... no tomatoes just lettuce. Well they got the no tomatoes just lettuce right but the tuna sandwich came on a tiny hamburger roll.

Do yourselves a favor,,, eat...
