[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is what I learned waiting tables: when you ask to hold something, it’s either possible or it’s not (ie, with a soup, it might be fully batch made in the morning, not made to order - all our soups were like this), but if it is possible - it is absolutely NBD.

People ask for stuff held all the time. You click a button, the kitchen keeps it out. Done.

I never asked for modifications before I waited tables because my parents thought it was rude/high maintenance and once I started waiting tables I started asking for stuff to be held all the time. I do limit myself to two modifications per order, as it is a bit annoying once you get to like 5 and your dish is totally different.

What IS annoying: lying about allergies (this triggers a whole protocol! If you don’t like tomatoes just ask to hold the tomatoes!) and recreating something from scratch (“I see you have a chicken Caesar salad and you have a turkey wrap - could you possibly make the chicken Caesar salad into a wrap? Since you have all the ingredients?” - yes people do this and it sucks)

Bottom line: ask to hold the noodles! [/quote]

I have a severe shell fish allergy that can kill me protocol do they do? I had no idea I just thought they wont use the same spatula in the kitchen.[/quote]
