"Lady ordered chicken schnitzel but didnโt want it deep fried so she wanted it grilled. So she got her breaded grilled chicken and complained that it was bland"
"One of my friends had a customer that was vegan (and told her). She ordered a vegan pasta dish but when she brought it to her the lady asked if it was gluten free pasta. When my friend asked if she couldnโt eat gluten she replied โyeah I said I was vegan.โ "
"We hired a recent cordon bleu graduate at corporate office cafe as a breakfast cook. On her first day, after I showed her how to get the line set up and ready to go, I went to the back to start getting lunch started. After about 15mins I hear her taking to a customer (my prep table was literally just around the corner towards the back).
Then I hear a loud ass pop followed by a couple of shrieks. I got to the front to find out what happened. This cordon bleu graduate had a customer ordered a fried egg from her and she thought that meant taking a raw egg, uncracked shell and all, and dropped it into the deep fryer. "
"Not to even mention things like "allergies" to -melted cheese specifically -dark meat but not white meat from a chicken -any eggs that aren't scrambled -peppers but paprika is fine -very serious gluten allergy that will cause extreme pain to the unfortunate patron, who is chugging down his 3rd pint of double IPA. "
Also: "dark meat but not white meat from a chicken" reminds me of a friend of mine who called herself vegetarian in high school, except she'd eat chicken
"I had this one the other day: "I would like a small tossed salad. But I want in a large salad bowl. Can I have extra lettuce, extra onions, extra cheese, extra tomatoes, extra croutons."
Oh, you mean a large salad? I'm not at fucking kidding somebody did that."
also if i were the person i would have said 'very good, sir/ma'am, but just so you're aware we have an up-charge for anything extra you add to a salad'
my husband has an onion allergy, and we realize how much of a pain in the ass it is, so we mention it early and just try to find things on the menu he can have
and it's a tricky allergy, because he's allergic specifically to onion oils, so if there's onion powder he's good to go, since the oil has been completely removed
"I saw this website where you could anonymously send eggplants to people for 20$. Bought one to send to my sister only to google the site later and find out it was a scam and I spent 20$ on nothing."
Oh, you mean a large salad? I'm not at fucking kidding somebody did that."
