11. We want you to enjoy yourself while you’re there eating, but when it’s over, you should go. Do you stay in the movie theater after the credits? No.

What I have witnessed in a top French restaurant
A customer sent back a stained dinner knife, the French waiter
took it to the pantry, licked it and wiped with his tie, then
returned to the guest with a cunning smile

So what did you do when you saw that?

Can you next time make up a story to sound a little more real? The story you told is almost identical to another story I saw somewhere else, but that one is just a 笑話 story.

it's totally a different thing~
restaurant is a place to hang out, chat; movie theatre is not.

What's wrong with you? Take your personal hatred somewhere else.

Most people here have seen worse than what he said. You haven't seen one or just naive?

8# Prelude

Thank you Prelude.
Only ignorants would deny the truth, even Youtube  have 100+ clips from restaurant's  security video archives,
some  bored  cooks  do  all sorts of silly things at graveyard shrift, my French hotel  chef friend told me that he used to pee in the
large(100 gallons) steam  jacket kettle  making out in the pantry,  drank up the cognac from the Maitre D.Hotel's
flamblee cart and replaced with tea etc.
Once  when I was dining in a high end Chinese restaurant, the waiter tripped and the full plate of panfried shrimps flipped
on his waist, he was such a cool guy, turned around to ease the food back onto the plate, wiped the rim of the plate  with his thumb,
and proceeded to served it to the customer.
Another case in a famous steakhouse in Granville Island, they have hand-carved prime rib on the carving cart in the dining room,
a Homer walked in, grabbed the beef and ran, the waiters  hit  him, he threw the beef onto the floor and left .
Guest what happened? the waiter put the  "Peppered" prime rib back to the carving cart, in the presence of 20+stunned  customers.

Once I was in the washroom of a Japanese restaurant, the sushi chef(he was cursing in Japanese) stomped out from the partition
and returned to work without washing his hands! I left the place with my friends before the food arrived and never return  to that
restaurant again.
I've witnessed hundreds of  bizarre  cases in the past 40 years, and seen why restaurants got closed down by Health Authority.
If anyone bother to surf the Foodinspectionweb.ca , it is amazing that so many cases stating that  dim sums and Hot Pot ingredients
are contaminated with feces, that is, the cooks did not wash their hands before commencing food preparation after using the bathroom.
I stated the facts, and it is up to anyone to believe. Go and ask some experience cooks and waiters and you will  learn more everyday.
I will talk about it on the radio next week.

If you voice it out, guess you can 全身而退?
Just keep your mouth SHUT if you are not eating

Yes, when I was still in school, my classmate who PT in MacDon.... fast food told us,
he pee into the ice-cream mix before it was pour into the machine.
That's true and he admitted it to us.

Of course I know there are more dirty things happend in kitchen. I worked part-time in restuarants/coffe shop before.

I found it funny because the story he told is almost the same as the story I saw elsewhere.

In addition, I enjoy challenging him, but he always has hard time to make simple and direct answers to my questions (it is a bit disappointing sometimes.

If a customer asked me if I liked that dish, I would say

"I preferred the other dish more but many customers ordered that dish and told me it's good."

He has no match to me and it is a bit disappointing.

I have hard time to get him answer my questions in simple and direct manner.

But anyhow, I still enjoy challenging his authority as he claims carrying so many titles under his belt.

作者: somewhereintime 時間: 2009-12-1 09:53

I only reply to valid queries with grounds, but not random personal attacks,
sorry for disappointment.
Try to bully a cop as I did, smart one.

I do not reply to Toppy, PSP1-- N and the alikes.

No, people tend to choose what they want to believe,
and they defy even they seen it in their own eyes if they don't want to.
