And for that you get the fine service standard of Taco Bell.
Ah, San Francisco....
Ah, the virtue-signalling Food section of the New York Times. The only reason I pick it up on Wednesday. I take it minimum wage hikes plus benefits have hit the restaurant scene in the purse?
The whole cook your own food restaurant thing is a scam. I think even dimwitted liberals will figure that out...maybe not!
Well, it seems you would be tipping yourself, though.
We call these “forces”... liberals
And as you leave you get a pile of human poo on the sidewalk to step in, for free.
I’m confident that the vast majority of diners at this restaurant will still leave a tip.
Has SF already preemptively setup a robot tax?
I think Canada has talked seriously about it.
I went to a Greek restaurant once in Toledo, Ohio. You entered from the alley through the back door directly into the kitchen and served yourself from the pots and pans where the food was cooking in. Very “quaint”.
LOL...never thought of it that way, but I once went to one of those cook your own food at the table places with my girlfriend. About 3/4 of the way through the meal, I had the proverbial sucker pop up over my head like in the old cartoons! THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF GOING TO A RESTAURANT IS HAVING SOMEONE ELSE COOK YOUR FOOD FOR YOU! Similar to buying crap Microsoft software and doing Bill Gates’ beta testing for him!
“Dinner for two (entree, side, dessert and a glass of wine): $76”
? They serve sandwiches and salads.
“And as you leave you get a pile of human poo on the sidewalk to step in, for free. “
And you get the aroma while you are eating.
Haven’t had an interest in visiting S.F. in 30 yrs.
Used to go often, as its beautiful on the outside.
Once, late at night, went the wrong way on Lombard....(age 18)
You got dumped?
Was it a fondue restaurant, like the Melting Pot chain? If so, that’s all part of the deal. It’s actually kind of fun.
Now if you went to a steak place and they had you cook your own food, that’s not right.
From their menu:
Lamb salad: $15
Fries: $5
Frozen Yogurt: $5
Smallest serving of wine: $13
Multiply by two people: $76
San Fransisco is like New York or Washington DC, a few square miles surrounded by reality.
Sometimes they’ll stumble over reality, but they always pick themselves up and keep going...
I ate at a place called The Grate Steak in Virginia a while back.
It had a 24 foot long charcoal pit in it where you cooked your own steak.
I think they are all closed now, though.
This is the new model for lots of restaurants—even here in Atlanta—..order your food from a counter, pick it up when your name is called, and bus your own table. I don’t mind all this EXCEPT when you sign on their iPad and the EXPECT a 20% tip. They want to make you feel like a cheapskate if you don’t go along with their suggestion. Grrrr
Seems like a bad idea...
