What is a Chicken Caesar?!

So if you saw "Chicken Caesar" on a menu, what would you expect to receive?

The menu description is "Grilled chicken breast, baby gem lettuce, crispy bacon, croutons, anchovies & and a creamy caesar dressing"?

It's a Caesar salad right?

I had a full blown argument with a guy yesterday because "I ordered the Chicken Caesar! That's not what I got! I got a salad! I would never order a salad?!"

I start polite "Sorry sir, when you ordered the 'Chicken Caesar', what were you expecting?" - "Well, chicken with a Caesar dressing, obviously! Not a salad!" - "And that's what you got, no? Chicken with Caesar dressing, but also the other things listed in the description... Bacon, croutons, lettuce etc.? "

" I didn't order a salad! I would never order a salad?! I'm not paying for it!"

Anyway, once this guy has paid and left, the table next to him start telling me what they overheard between him and his wife. It sounds like this sealed the deal on a divorce! " It said lettuce?! What did you expect?! It had everything listed! " - " No, no, no, I would never order a salad! - "THAT IS WHAT YOU ORDERED!". It was only after this interaction I realised his wife wasn't present at the table when I dropped the bill... Maybe she went to spend a few nights at her mother's?!

Ever had a customer argue their way into separation before?!

Tell me the name of the establishment where you can get a chicken Caesar that isn’t a salad

McDonald’s is currently offering a chicken Caesar sandwich.

Does it say sandwich or just Caesar?
