Mama's Farmhouse - Pigeon Forge, TN 

Yes it was!

Yeah, that's obviously not the way to get new subscribers. We thought we would add a little humor into it. Too much food for that late at night.

We basically went there that night, because of the special. Thank you for watching, and we are glad you enjoy the videos.

Thanks for watching!

We love it there…

Glad you enjoy it!

Thanks for watching!

Glad you enjoyed that!

Sorry that you didn't have a good experience there. Thanks for watching.

And I’ve mentioned this I think before. I’d like you all to go by Southern Porch in Canton sometime. I think you’ll really enjoy it.

@chadupton5615 Thank you for the suggestion, and thank you for watching. We appreciate it!

Part of it could be that we were there so late. The last time we were there, it was really, really good. We certainly want to go back for breakfast, and give them another shot. Thank you for watching.

@@NCMemoryMakers yes probably too late like you mentioned.

Yeah, this was a pretty mixed experience for us. Our first experience was good. We want to go back for breakfast.

Very true. Thanks so much for watching, and for your kind comment.

Hopefully, you'll get to go back soon. Thanks for watching!

Yeah, we thought adding a little humor would be fun. Glad you enjoyed it! Also glad that you realized it was staged and humor. Believe it or not, we actually had someone email us, and chastise me for harassing a stranger in the outhouse. I couldn't believe it. I honestly thought everybody would know that was just added for laughter. I mean, how many restaurants actually still have functioning outhouses for their customers? 😂😂😂😂

Were you there the same night we were? This past Friday?

No it was October 2022! Sorry I should’ve been clear on that 😝

@reginacelia8966 No problem. I just thought it would have been neat if you had been there at the same time, and we could have said "hello".

You are very welcome!

Thank you for watching. We will try it for breakfast next time. Yes, the half price deal definitely made it worth the money.

Thanks so much, and we hope you enjoy our content!

If you do try it, let us know what you think. Thank you for watching and for commenting.

You are very welcome. Thank you so much for watching and for commenting.

Yes, we were absolutely stuffed. And the biscuits were good this time.

Sorry you didn't have a great experience. Thank you for watching.

We definitely do want to try it for breakfast. The videos we've seen of breakfast, including yours, make it look very good. The next time we go, it will be for breakfast.

And we were a bit disappointed that they didn't have the strawberry butter. The peach is great, and it's my preference. But her preference is the strawberry, and I also liked the strawberry last time, as well. And the biscuits were very good this visit.

@@NCMemoryMakers That is very disappointing. I know they only serve one a day but they could have bought you some if requested. Last time we were there we were able to get both.

@vafunseekers Yes, we were able to get both on our first visit, as well.

Very true. I think our problem was, it was going on 9 at night. That's just too late to be eating that much.

Thank you so very much for your kind words. One thing we have learned in doing this, is that while most people are very nice, there are always a handful who were never taught how to be nice and respectful. I agree with what you said, that it is probably a result of their upbringing. The person who made that comment to me, wasn't really trying to be mean, I don't believe. I also believe there are people that mean well, but they just don't have any tact in the way they come across. But I agree with everything you said. There are some things that should just not be said. I really am trying to make much more healthy choices, and have been doing pretty well. Usually, I eat much less the days prior, when I know we are going to be going somewhere like this. Thank you so much for your sweet comment.

Well, we have been staying at the Mountain House in Gatlinburg, as of late. The motel we have stayed in for years, is currently closed and undergoing remodeling, and will be changing hands soon. The Mountain House is older and simple, but clean, and conveniently located in downtown Gatlinburg. It is budget-friendly.

We actually said the same thing, that they could have opened up a jar. I don't know if it's because it was at the end of the day, or why they didn't. We were actually in a seafood place once, and they opened up a jar of their hot sauce that we liked, because there wasn't any out. You have a blessed day, as well.

As someone who’s worked at many restaurants and been a district manager over a top food chain restaurant it’s extremely easy to run out. First humans are just that. Humans..It’s hard to determine each day how much of something to fix without wasting food and money. There’s days we would be fine on something then the next 40 customers want that item that you thought you would have the rest of the night and before you know it, it’s out cause your busy, always understaffed and the next day you make double only to get your butt chewed by owners that you made too much and you are easily throwing out hundreds of dollars of food. It’s impossible to correctly know how much of something to fix just based on what customers and their preferences in each different day. Having those homemade mashed potatoes everyone loves is great but when you run short it’s not just opening a bag and throwing them in a microwave like most places do. It’s a lot of work and I promise you that don’t have one just sitting and making potatoes all night. They have 10/20 other jobs and on top of that I promise you no one wants to run out of anything cause we definitely don’t want to get cussed over mashed potatoes. The rudest and worst treatment people take is in food. Sundays was always the day every restaurant dreads (look it up) none of my employees ever wanted the Sunday shift. As a Christian myself that speaks volumes & is so sad.. People coming in, in their Sunday best treating others like crap. I promise no matter how bad of a day they think they’re having. Those behind the counter is having it worse. Most day we didn’t even get a break & would love to have anything that gets thrown in the trash especially all you can eat. So much food gets thrown away cause most don’t care. If they would get only what they want instead of waste then they wouldn’t run out as much either. And any place I’ve ever worked every single time the food truck delivered there’s issues with them leaving off the order or being out themselves. So sometimes that’s the issue for being out. My daughter worked at KFC for over a year in that time they left their chicken off the order. Even driving to another town twice to borrow from two other KFCs they ran out because the other KFCs are only gonna loan out until they feel like they won’t have enough..Living in a small town all day all I seen was “Went in KFC how are they out of chicken”… Well it certainly isn’t because they want to cause the cussing you receive aren’t worth not frying more..Not at all saying any of this to be hateful just why places run out. It’s not to get at anyone or because they’re not doing their job. (I’m sure there’s a few cases that are lazy but the majority I’ve worked with aren’t)

@tinaseaboch1364 You do bring up some very valid points, and I thank you for letting us see both sides of it. I guess with the butter, the only thing we were saying, is that they had numerous jars of it for sale in the lobby. And I'm guessing every day they have to open some of those jars? And I'm thinking they easily could have refrigerated what they didn't use that night, and used it the next morning. Don't they do that anyway?

Very sorry to hear that you had a bad experience there.

What are you talking about? Is it something specific in the video? State what you're talking about, and I'll reply to it. We make videos every week, and this was a couple of months ago. Like we remember everything we said.
