Conversation my ex had with some hopped up frat bro at an English-style pub where he used to work in Chicago:

Bro: (waving menu) Waiter! Hey, waiter!
My ex: Yes?
Bro: I don't understand what some of this food is.
Ex: Okay.
Bro: Like this (pointing)..."Beans on Toast."
Ex: Well, which part of it are you having trouble…

just trying to figure out how an adult & sentient human could eat a fried vegetable and mistake it for bread.

I was a cook/bartender/server at a brewpub. A group of 4 came in, two gray-haired couples. It was an easy table because all 4 of them ordered literally the same thing, the pulled pork sandwich. When I brought out the food, one of the gentlemen was irate. "I didn't order this. I would never order this." The table…

As someone who loves tempura anything confusing that with bread is just... WTF... from afar NO it does NOT look like bread. You can see the green of broccoli through the tempura, the bright orange of the sweet potatoes and the very not bread shaped varieties.

That may have been my dad.

I think most servers are pretty sympathetic to people with legitimate allergies. When you claim that you'll "literally die" if you eat gluten, then order bread filled with it, then they think you're an asshole.

Nothing to feel bad about there. Not sure why you would. Allergies are serious business.

The New Style Sashimi dish started out as a way to placate a customer who was wary of raw fish,

"Oh! Well! Looks like you found those bread rolls after all. Wasn't that hard, was it?" I then took a skewer out of one of the pieces of tempura, and plunged it finger deep into her eyeball.

I was working as a waiter at a pretty decent steak house in the New England area. Had a woman and her husband come into my zone. I took their drink order and came back to get their food order. Woman: "I'm allergic to gluten, dairy, and nuts. What can I eat?" I proceed to go through the usual list of gluten free sides.…

What the hell is "New Style Sashimi"? (I know what sashimi is.) Maybe a place that serves "New Style Sashimi" serves bread rolls? I don't know.

I'm assuming you've worked in food service. It typically just makes one a more sympathetic person in general. It's painfully obvious when someone has never had a service job by their shitty entitled attitude. Nobody cares about your ranch dressing, snowflake.

I work at a Japanese restaurant in LA with a very Japanese sounding name and only Japanese food.

Was at our town's new "deluxe diner" last week. It's fantastic and they are brand-new so the waitstaff is still getting their footing, figuring out staffing patterns, menu quirks, etc. The food is sort of upscale diner-ish and just delicious. Anyway, as my table was finishing our meals, a new table sat next to us. Two…

My SIL used to work at Shmolive Garden too. She thought the penne was pronounced "punani"...until she said it at work one day.

I'd be sympathetic if she had pointed at another patron's table and asked for bread rolls. The woman in this story claimed she'd eaten them before, though, and her friends said the only reason they'd come was for the "free bread." Since they got a comped appetizer that time around too, I'm actually inclined to…

Because she was an ass about it. She was rude to the server as were her friends. If she'd been polite then fair enough it would be mean to laugh, but she wasn't.

Can we expand this to also cover people who claim to be "very" allergic to something just because they don't like it?

I can't believe this show is still on and people still watch it after all the racist, sexist shit Trump has said and done. Just goes to show money and power get you everywhere in Hollywood. Quite appropriate they'd leave this part in, as it's a perfect reflection of Trump and the overall hush attitude that pervades…
