Haha! This was a frickin’ joke! I thought this was literally a joke when they brought this out. It’s the smallest little button fritters I’ve ever seen and they bring it out with oversized serving utensils to make them look even smaller! The slivers of pickled peppers were larger than these sad fried lumps. #FAIL
