The Chinese restaurant guy just owned a SC.

[Taboo]

Yep, same guy from my other thread. I have decided he's officially awesome and that I need to start going there more often just to watch this, hah.

RO = restaurant owner

I went in around noon, so there were perhaps 25 people trying to jam themselves into this tiiiiiny restaurant that only has 3 or 4 chairs. Order gets called, and SC goes up to the counter and pays, then proceeds to ask them to smother it in all sorts of sauces. Restaurant owner humors him for a while, though god only knows WHY he wanted his food in such a huge pool of soy sauce, duck sauce, and mayo (wtf?!) that it is literally beginning to float.

SC: Hot sauce too!
RO: *squirts on a little bit*
SC: More!
RO: *second squirt, then sets the bottle back under the counter*
SC: MOAR!
RO: Fine. Two dollar.
SC: What?!
RO: That sauce doesn't come with it. You pay extra.
SC: Like hell I will!
RO: Then no more hot sauce. *closes container, pushes it towards SC*
SC: But I want more hot sauce!
RO: Fine. Three dollar.
SC: No--
RO: Four dollar.
SC: WHAT?! Just put the hot sauce on it!
RO: Five dollar.
SC: WHYYYYYY is it MOOOOOORE~~~?!?!11ELEVENTY
RO: Because you order extra and then stand at counter and waste my time!
SC: This is bullshit! I'm not paying that!
RO: Then you leave!

Someone huffed out and forgot the door opened the other way and slammed their head into it. I think the kids waiting there learned some new expletives!

Bonus story:
I was at McDonald's last week and this kid, maybe 6 years old, kept screaming about how he wanted chocolate and a chocolate shake. Seriously, yelling about it for a solid 4 or 5 minutes while his parents ignored him and stared off into space. Finally his mother had enough and told him, "If you don't stop it, I'm going to take you to Subway and make you get HEALTHY food instead!"

Cue: "NOOOOOO MOMMY NOOOOOOOO~OOOO!!"

I'll admit it, I cracked up.

[Food Lady]

Haha that McDonald's story reminds me of the time I was in the cafe at work and a mom and kid were arguing. The kid wanted a banana pretty badly and was begging for it when the mom jumped down her throat with, "No! I said we're getting Cheetos!!"

[PepperElf]

poor kid. i mean hell the banana is cheaper than the cheetos too.


and lol. yeah i dont use most of the sauces on my chinese food. i find it ruins the taste.

[XCashier]

yeah i dont use most of the sauces on my chinese food. i find it ruins the taste.

Exactly what I was thinking. Why is he ruining perfectly yummy Chinese food by drowning it in a mishmosh of sauces?! The mind boggles.

[Draco]

My question is why is he putting mayo on Chineese food? Ew.

[GreySergal]

Man.

I've learned a lesson from working in a diner that pretty much sums up to be:

"The Waitress is the seraphim, servant of the mighty cook, who is God. If you should offend the waitress, the cook shall know, for he is all knowing, and has agents in many places. And thus, you shall be smoten by a firey hand, and bland flavors picked from the very bottom of the bowls. And should you waste the time of mighty Cook and his beloved Angels, then, brother, I'm hiding, because it wont be pretty."

Now, the cooks wouldn't do anything illegal or disgusting... but they knew how to make a meal look good or bad.

And indeed, the Cooks did smote without mercy.

[TheMike]

I saw one guy who had enough soy sauce to turn the food dark brown then proceed to dose the whole plate in salt... I nearly puked

[chainedbarista]

probably because he's killed off most of his tastebuds a long time ago. ergh, anything swimming in a sauce is just...

[Gawdzillers]

I like duck sauce on my egg rolls. You can really taste the duck.

[zombiequeen]

I like a little soy or teriyaki sauce, but not much. Or if it's like meat on rice, I like the juice from the meat (bourbon chicken sauce is the yumm ) on the rice.

But making sauce-soup? Sounds like my father-in-law who killed his soft palate years ago and now is inflicting his terrible over-seasoning and bad-seasoning upon the world.

There's a reason we skip meals if he cooks them...the man can ruin box macaroni and cheese without trying.

how on earth do you kill something like that?

[zombiequeen]

Smoking, drugs, drinking, working in a factory that makes dust of whatever.
He literally only smells my husband. Like, I could be walking around with a dead fish (when my fish died, I did because I couldn't flush it) and he didn't notice. Hubby walks by, RIGHT after taking a shower "Oh boy you smell BAD get some DEODERANT you stinky stinkface!"
Actually, he might not even smell that, he could be making it up because he hates my husband.

[Red_Dazes]

Wow. I think I love that restaurant owner... how full of WIN is he.

P.S.....I hate you all... now I am craving King Yen..... I dun wanna get dressed and go outside! lol

[Ironclad Alibi]

In my case, I had it burned away with a laser*. But I still had a decent sense of taste.

The worst I ever saw was when my mother-in-law (who doesn't seem to know spices exist) cooked for HER mother-in-law (who was so old she'd lost a significant amount of her sense of taste). The old woman put so much salt on her food that I was thinking I wouldn't need to add any to mine!

The upside to my MIL's inability to use spices is that it's very easy to make my hubby think I'm the greatest cook ever.
