Outlaw Tea From Restaurants

February 5, 2010

in Dining Hell Commentary

I have wanted to get this off my chest for 20 years. I absolutely think they should outlaw people who order hot tea.

OK, I know you’re thinking that I’m crazy, but now that tea, especially green tea, is supposed to be so good for you, everyone is ordering it. When you’re a server with 12 tables at breakfast and hear ‘I’ll have tea,” you just cringe because in order to get that tea, you have to get a teapot, go to the kitchen to get the water, get a plate, get a dolly, get a lemon slice.

OK, OK… you’re right, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to do this, but it really sets servers back in time. They should be out in the dining room pouring coffee, pouring juice, delivering omelets, clearing plates, handing out checks, and doing credit cards.

There is no solution to this pain-in-the-butt item. I just wanted to vent a little. Thanks!
