Daily Rant — I Hate it When Waiters Serve the Entree Course While the Appetizer Plates are on the Table
May 20, 2024
I would like to start a school in which they teach waiters and other support staff how to serve the customers. There is a real need for people to learn the appropriate serving steps. The reason I am looking into this is because at the last two restaurants that I went to the waiters started […]

May 16, 2024
Instead of doing a rant today, I thought that I would provide some advice on what not to order in a restaurant. This is an argument that I have with my wife all the time. She always like to order food that sounds good regardless of where we are eating. In one case, she wanted […]

May 13, 2024
This past weekend, we treked into NYC for dinner with friends at Tasca on the Upper West Side. It is a fusion of Spanish and Carribean food. We were seated in the basement which was a little eerly but quieter than upstairs. Overall, the food was good even though it was salty. We started with […]

Rant of the Day — Dirty Menus
May 1, 2024
Recently, I was at a restaurant where the menu was dirty with some remnants of food on it. I don’t know how food could get on a menu since when I order my meal, the waiter takes the menu away from me. After ordering, I have no use for a menu. So this is a […]
