Instagram/Mama D\'s The my girlfriend is not hungry menu item at Mama D's in Little Rock, Arkansas.
A restaurant in Little Rock, Arkansas named Mama D’s had an ingenious solution to the problem many men have faced on dates: “My girlfriend is not hungry.”
Of course, maybe she really is hungry, but she’s pretending to not be hungry. Or something like that. Either way, Mama D’s came up with a fix for the problem, and it’s written right there on the restaurant’s menu. A photo of the menu item went viral.
You can visit the restaurant’s website here.
The restaurant, under side dishes like cole slaw, fried pickles, onion rings, and mashed potatoes, offers the “My Girlfriend is Not Hungry” option for a mere $4.25. The menu reads: “Add extra French fries to your entrée, and fried chicken wings (2) or fried cheese sticks.”
Mama D’s appears to be enjoying the attention. “We glad our Mama D’s menu option solved the most couples’ problem ???” the restaurant joked on its Facebook page. The restaurant posted a photo of the menu on Instagram.
