Just like The Checkout’s product versus packshot segment lol.

It’s been terrible for many years now

Whatever that sausage is, it looks dangerously close to excrement

Nah, that’s what it always looks like when you shake the box vigorously before you open it. Why’d you do that?!

Even for an overpriced low quality bad food that’s like a shotgun to the heart it looks pretty miserable.
For a price they charge people for buying anything from Flinders St that’s the heart of a cosmopolitan city, it’s really embarrassing.
I remember buying currywurst from German train station cafes and I was surprised how it was actually a genuinely nice food, instead of this low quality bread swimming in bad tomato sauce with a drunk sausage on the side.

What is that supposed to be? 😬

I used to love that place, their snack pack was my go to after a hard night and needing to wait an hour for the train home.
Sad to see the quality drop so harshly, but honestly if it still tastes good then the looks don’t matter – it’ll all look the same coming out anyway.

It’s been inedible for years. It only survives based on its location and catchy name.

Yes the sausage fell off the bun.

This is how they threw it in the box mate

That’s a pity. I remember really enjoying them when I was in the city all the time circa 2012.

I’ve somehow had either the best, or worst experiences at LOTF, there’s no in-between 😆

Did you drop the box before opening it?

Their burgers used to taste like proper beef burgers with a really nice sauce. Now, tasteless and dry patties with sugary sweet bread and barely any sauce.

On the odd occasion I pass through Flinders St, I sometimes grab a couple of potato cakes from them. The staff are always incredibly slow and uninterested. I sympathise with those in food service (I did my time when I was young). But, it is fairly abysmal. And wowzers, glad I never ordered anything else from their menu

The OG was amazing.. used to get the loaded fries with South African topping. Nothing better after about 10 drinks. Gone are those days

I usually go through IKEA for my DIY assembly hotdogs.

I tried one from walkers the other day it’s not much better, at least LOTF says there’s didn’t have meat in it.

They’ve been falling hard for a long time now, covid didn’t improve things one bit.
I remember them when they had original location only, great fries indeed. Went downhill from there.

Tbh I have never enjoyed their food. I wanted to love it but it was gross.

As a uni student I always just stuck to chips and whatever sauce that was free.

Return it. Get another or your money back. Don’t be a pushover.

This is why toppings go on top of the sausage

Used to love it 10 years ago. Always grabbed some for the long train ride home after uni.
Now they are shit. Quality has dropped through the floor, and the price is astronomical for what you get. Let them waste away as far as I’m concerned, and hopefully someone takes their place

I remember way back in 2012ish I was buying cheese and bacon fries there all the time. Fast forward ten years and I finally discovered it was vegan 😂

As a life long deep fried chip connoisseur and an out of town frequenter of Melbourne for 15 years I will say that lord of the fries has always sucked ass. Very attractive shopfront but what you get is overpriced and underwhelming

Eeeeew! No filter on that pic, lol
Thought I was in /badfoodporn
Yeah they are like right on the brink of disappearing unfortunately, there’s only like 3 or 4 locations left
Looks to me like the sausage fell off the bun so I’d say you’re correct
Honestly looks like it was dropped on the floor.

They did indeed fall off, massively
