Reply #34: Disappear for over an hour in search of the item

[Nikia]

When I was a kid, we went to a restaurant that had eggplant parmesean as the special. After over an hour at a restaurant that did not appear busy at the time, our food finally came. The waiter said that is because they ran out of eggplant and the first three grocery stores that he went to, which were the closest, did not have it.
