[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine is, "Still working on that?" Or even worse, "Still picking at it?" My entree is not a project, nor am I a buzzard.[/quote] I agree, but what is the appropriate but effective response?[/quote] Well, I have found in recent years that many young restaurant servers seem to be lacking basic manners, thanks to parents not teaching them manners. Or maybe that's just where I live (rural area of Maryland). When one of them asks me this, I try to sort of demonstrate what the appropriate thing to say/ask would be. I usually say something like, "No, I'm not yet finished with my dinner," or something along those lines-- because I wouldn't mind if a server asked me, "Are you all finished with your dinner?"
