I saw that, and I love it
Because that would destroy the illusion. Tipping allows restaurants to pretend they have lower prices. Difficult to pretend when you remind patrons about the extra cost of a tip before they order.
Officially, they are not allowed to be touched, but that doesn't mean management is going to do anything about it. And the joy of tipping means if your asshole customer gets kicked out, you don't get paid.
Yeah. I was pretty ticked off. But maybe the guy was just confused! He thought we were in a brothel, not a restaurant. After all, if sex workers don't sex you, then you don't need to pay them.
Bingo! The best servers always seemed to me to have this 6th sense that tell them what kind of treatment a particular customer wanted. But there's nothing you can do with these pervy types. They just want to be assholes.
Not leaving a tip is such bullshit. Like, it's not enough of a power trip for these guys to perv all over the servers, who can't leave and have to be polite and provide service. Nope, these assholes have to make sure their victims don't even get paid for doing their job while putting up with their nastiness.
AND the croque monsieur. Le sigh.
It is true that bacon makes everything delicious. BUT, the BLT is really leaning on that bacon crutch. The true test of a sandwich is that the ingredients should enhance each other. The bacon enhances the lettuce and tomato, but the others do nothing for the bacon except dilute it. I'd rather just eat the bacon by…
I DON'T EVEN CARE THAT YOU LEFT OUT BEEF ON WECK BECAUSE I'M SURE YOU WOULDN'T APPRECIATE ITS SANDWICHY MAGNIFICENCE.
Yeah, whoever he payed to write that did a pretty good job.
Speaking as a North-Brooklynite, you are late to the party. Once a trend is picked up by the NYTimes, you know its long over. Artisanal toast is so 2013, man.
But what if I really, really want it to be true?
Oh man, I would watch the shit out of that!
We all know what the starving African child looks like, but how much do you know about the kids next door? We can sensationalize mass starvation and war and no one gives two shits, but you're up in fucking arms because the ugly truth is in your face?
Ah, yes. I've mixed up my purple liquid terminology
All I can think is Dave Chapelle's "purple drank"
