How to send back restaurant food without being labeled a jerk

Is Brief your uncle?

I like steak well done. I ordered a steak and specified that I wanted it cooked completely. When the food arrived, my steak was so under cooked that I didn't even have to cut into it to notice.

I felt bad asking the waiter to take it back because he seemed overwhelmed with the dinner crowd.

He knew that I felt bad, and he took it back and had the chef put it back on the grill until it was cooked correctly.

He must have told the chef that I felt bad, because he came out and brought the steak to me personally.

He told me that, as a chef, he would rather have a person send food back that isn't properly cooked then have them just eat it anyway, because he wants to make sure that he and his staff are offering the most excellent and accurate service. He was really nice.

I always worry about the spit thing, I guess you have to gauge the overall atmosphere of the place. And if you do return food, do it very nicely.

I have no problem with kitchen naggers, it's part of their usefulness.

When I go out to eat,I immediately turn around and leave if I see even one nagger in the joint.....Gives me severe indigestion just looking at one of them!

I am always surprised when I look at the American restaurant culture.

Most of it is fast food or elevated fast food, like olive garden. yes I looked at the menu.
For truck drivers and travelling salesman.

they always spit in sent back plates.

Some black people are great cooks, one of the best fried chicken meals I ever had was in the black area of Atlanta.

I've worked in Restaurants for ages now, and I can honestly say I've never seen anyone fuck with food, at all.

Where the fuck are you guys eating?

There are a lot of independent places, you just won't hear of them because they are small. I rarely eat at any of the chain restaurants. When we eat out, most of the time its at a small Vietnamese place. Its pretty good, and cheap.

they always spit in sent back plates.

Being that I once had to bust my ass for every tip and getting $2.01 an hour I AM one of those people who expect my table to be " prebussed", and have my food checked on 3 min after its been delivered to the table, and I expect refills, ect, in return I have no problem leaving a great tip for them. I've only ever sent food back 2 or maybe 3 times in my life and that was for being cold and undercooked, but I was never unkind or mean about it. No need for all that nonsense. ..but as a server you get some REAL ASSHOLES and you know how you deal with a beligerant asshole???

Those plastic ice cubes with a roach in them work well, and they'll even comp your bar tab.

Every GLP person needs this in their pocket, just like super glue for locks and parking meters.

Well I would send it back...but I'm a bitch...



Hey if I am paying 30 dollars for a entrée then I want to enjoy it...

Do you check your food for spit?

I dont

they always spit in sent back plates.

I always take the offending order back to the chef myself.
I get him by the scruff of his dirty neck and push his face into the slop while screaming, EAT IT, EAT THIS GARBAGE YOU INCOMPETENT, IGNORANT, IMMIGRANT LUMP!

Now bring me some decent food or your family will be deported!

Works every time.

And then your dad kicks your ass for touching him.
