This review is for a really new sav vendor, and let me just say, after a rough start, they have really sgotten off on the right foot. It started a week or so ago, and as soon as I saw this new take-away food van i thought "SAV!" so i pulled in and it seemed he didnt have them yet (even though his menu board had a space for both battered savs AND dagwood dogs...) So I enquired and he confirmed that he didnt have them but was expecting them to come in soon. So I drove by a couple of times but he had put an NA on his board so I didn't stop, until this one time when he had gotten rid of the NA so i asked him if he had any savs and he replyed that he would have them that night. So I returned a little before midnight after my concert, and he recognised me and reported that he hadn't got the batter and as a result of my trouble he said that there would be 2 free savs waiting for me whenever i came back! Well after a few more days of apologising that they had'nt come in i finally returned to see that they now were on the menu board. My consience got the better of me and i decided to pay for the sav, after all he is a new vendor and all... anyway i got my sav and whoa =_=. I think they need a better source for their savaloys becuase they are really blaaand. The batter was a bit undercooked but nothing drastic. I might have a chat to the operater next time I pop in but untill he promises me a better sav im sticking to chips 'n gravy. maybe It will come with experience but i hope you learn quickly, B&S...;

Poor people. Growing up in a family of bleeding-heart liberals and being educated by Catholics, I was always taught that poor people were people just like you or me but were the victims of unfortunate social circumstances. However, I've recently come to believe in the following: if you live in a trailer, it's your own damn fault for not being able to cook a quality sav. I'm talking about YOU B&S; people.
Now the guy behind the counter seems like a nice enough dude (although he apparently called batteredsav.com 's own Baconheist a "loud cunt" - I'll give that to the B&S; guy though, as Steve was practically yelling in the guy's lounge room), but there is something unsettling about standing around in what appears to be his lounge room (seriously...) while you wait for him to batter and cook your sav. To be fair, he did say that fresh is the only way to have a sav, but freshness is irrelevant when he is battering a frankfurt and not a real sav. Is this not a cardinal sin in the art of sav-ery?
Anyway, two months and three savs after first visiting the trailer, and the only improvement in their 'savs' is that now they don't fall apart. Whoop-dee-freakin'-doo. A deep-fried frankfurt is always rather bland, and their batter might as be bread. I left all complaints slide when the trailer people only charged $1.80 for a sav, but upon my last visit I was charged $2.50. Who the hell pays $2.50 for a fraudulent sav from hell? For $2.50, I'd expect a sav blessed by Dave Grohl himself. I understand that these people are poor, and live in a trailer, but $2.50? No dice.
Trailer people, take heed: Learn how to make a quality sav, charge accordingly, and someday you may live in a real house like the rest of us, but for now, you won't be seeing me for a while - 3/10
