This is sort of the thing.

You have to sort of meet up your expectations with regards to circumstances.

Swiss Chalet is not the greatest roasted chicken in the world. But if you just feel like some chicken one random night...it'll hit it. And you're not breaking the bank for it.

You dont need Gordon Ramsey so cook you a chicken every time. Sometimes 'that'll do' still hits the spot.

"I want some chicken today and I am willing to do the least amount of effort to get it!"

Its that way with all kinds of food.

Theres nothing wrong with that.

Now, on the flip side...if you wait forever and you're paying a ton then your expectations are clearly going to be higher. Thats fair.

For instance, I remember getting a burger in Vegas...it was this expensive deluxe burger at a specialty restaurant and it was the blandest most tasteless burger I've ever had. I was very disappointed. Because thats pretty much the opposite of what I came for.
