Interesting Articles on Yahoo - Restaurant Tips, Grandma's Olive Garden Review!

Hopefully I can post the links here -

Saw these two articles on Yahoo mail. Loved Grandma's tips on dining! I also thought that the second article regarding "Waiters Judging Customers" would be a good eye-opener for us Shoppers!

Enjoy!

R@iney, Interesting article (Waiters observations), I disagree with them trying to get bigger tips, as shoppers are required to give the 15% and 18% for upscale. When eating out on our dime BS (before shopping), 15/20% was the
norm, hardly ever more, and in this economy, that would be diners limit. Servers should concentrate on serving, not reading their customers, do your timings, be gracious and have knowledge, the rest will take care of itself.
I read Olive Garden (never did the shop) is the worst place to work, and can verify that, as my friend works there part-time...I'd never have thought it would be worse than other chains. Just writing while having my coffee, I hope the forum police doesn't find me as I'm off topic...sad smiley

Since I'm only 100 miles north of Grandma Maureen, and Grand Forks is our closest US city, I'm going to be checking out her recommendations. The steakhouse sounds good.
No Irene, you're not off topic, this is the general discussion forum.
