K&W Cafeteria, Myrtle Beach


It was during my first trip to the beach WITHOUT my mom that I learned what old people eat. And what do they eat you ask? The K&W cafeteria...excuse me I mean the K&W CRAPteria. Yes, Myrtle Beach has many wonderful places to eat, but this is not one of them.  This restaurant is probably the worst place I have ever visited.
As soon as I went into the restaurant, I looked around and knew the food was going to be as bland as the atmosphere. The walls were beige and the carpet was a dingy grey with burgundy checks. This isn't a restaurant where you are greeted by a hostess, instead you just grab a tray and wait in line like in a school cafeteria ( except any school cafeteria food is better).  You have to ask the lunch lady to give you whatever you want. The counter lady was really nice- almost too nice. There is such a thing as too friendly and she definitely was that. It was a little uncomfortable because she kept calling my Pappaw "sugar" AND my Mammaw was right next to him.
While in line, I decided to get the roast beef with new potatoes, a slice of Texas toast, and some blue jello. The meat was dry and chewy, subpar at best. It was smothered in this disgusting brown sauce that wasn't gravy or au jus ( and I love au jus). The sauce kind of reminded me of the greasy liquid you drain off cleaning the grill. NASTY! And it smelled like dog food, but I wouldn't even feed that stuff to my dog.
The potatoes were overdone and all the flavor had all been boiled out. They were almost as bland as the atmosphere. The toast was doughy. Texas toast is suppose to be crunchy and garlicky. This tasted like it had been covered in Papa John's Garlic Butter Sauce. And while that stuff is fine on pizza, it doesn't belong on toast.  The jello looked good when I got it, but ended up being more liquid than solid and tasted more like sugar than blue raspberry. Overall, food FAILURE!
