Welcome, welcome one and all to another episode! Thanks for tuning in for the seventh instalment from Texas; today we’re at Max & Louie’s to do battle with their ‘Robert Stack Challenge’. Twenty five minutes to box off an eclectic tower of American breakfast favourites all by yourself. If you can manage it, you get the meal FREE, a winner’s shirt and a mug too! I hope you enjoy it and I’ll be back with you this time on Sunday for the next one!

He understands that the word of mouth of 'omg somebody did the challenge' is what the challenge as a promotional tool is about. leaving somebody in a corner to complete/fail isn't really worth it. Now all those people who got involved in the challenge, who almost got 'permission' to talk to the stranger will be telling their friends about what they saw today

That’s how you keep people coming back over and over, with an atmosphere like that at your restaurant/place of business. I wanna go just for the French toast, it’s also my favorite breakfast food (and Breakfast is always 24/7 in MY home lmao).

Love that the manager was really into the spirit of the food challenge! It always puts me off a bit when it seems like they don't want you to succeed at all, or they do something to make it even harder just so you'll lose. You can tell this guy actually just finds the whole thing fun. I'm in Canada, so I don't know if I'll ever find myself in that area of Texas, but I'd definitely stop by if end up that way.
