The Insane Waiter

Running wild on customers, chefs, owners and managers since 1997. I bring to you, The Insane Waiter. What do bring to your table? A crisp bottle of San Pellegrino ? Perhaps a lovely seared Sashimi Tuna? Start off with a wonderful bottle from Tuscany perhaps? Why I'll be more than happy to bring you your White Zinfandel and Chicken Caesar. No you can't order the mac and cheese off the kids menu and sorry no, we don't serve cheese sticks....

Typos

Ah, an article after my own heart, given my many grammar critics.

It brings to mind Randall’s rant in “Clerks” of how it must be so satisfying to point out the shortcomings of others.

If you have the time and energy to go through a menu with a red marker you really need a hobby, or some help.

Either that, or the people making the menu need to be a bit more professional and pay attention to their work.

Personally, I love menu typos. It makes places memorable, like the place I still call "The Restanrant" because of a particularly stupid typo on all of their menns. Or the place that serves a "Rueben," whatever that may be--possibly a snadwich with patsrami and sauerkruat on rey bread.

eh, Typos happen. Some people just don't sweat the small stuff. When was the last time anyone ever encountered a typo that make anything incomprehensible?
