don't know what to order well here's what not to order these chain restaurant workers reveal
10 menu items people should never order well done steak she orders a steak well done and
then complains when the damn thing comes out and it's too dry steak is a versatile meat able to be
cooked in different ways to varying degrees of Readiness and with different sauces spices and
toppings steak is great for a variety of situations as well whether you're out for
an expensive business dinner or just enjoying a casual Backyard Barbecue with family and friends
people have all sorts of different tastes when it comes to how they like their steak cooked some
people are extremely picky when it comes to their steak leaving it on the grill for a second too
little or too long can ruin the steak for those extremely picky steak eaters this steak is medium
rare I asked for its medium if you're one of those people that prefers their steak to cook for way
too long you're probably better off avoiding order ordering it from a restaurant unless
it's a high-end Steakhouse where every cut of meat served is of top quality if you're at a mid-range
restaurant and you choose to order your steak well done you run the risk of being served the lowest
quality steak available likely the one from the back of the fridge that's been sitting there for
a questionable amount of time so while you may be tempted to order a steak well done when dining out
you may want to skip that idea and order something else House made chili best before this day after
this date not the best but still pretty good housemate chili may sound like a delicious home
style meal that's extremely tempting to try when out at a restaurant a favorite among many chili
recipes have evolved over the years to include all sorts of ingredients and spices restaurants
may try to make their chili appealing by using words such as hearty and filling but if the house
made chili is the special of the day you may want to skip it and move on to something else specials
are already a questionable choice because they're typically the items that the kitchen wants to get
rid of usually consisting of items that are close to their expiry date with chili this is even more
true as meat that may taste a little bit off due to it being old can easily be disguised with the
heavy Taste of the spices and sauce typically used in chili putting chili on the menu as a
special of the day can sometimes be a sneaky way to get rid of older ingredients without simply
throwing it all in the garbage order the chili special at your own risk soup nothing for you
while you can definitely order soup if that's what you really want to eat you may want to check with
the kitchen first to see if it's actually made in house or not restaurants may use wording on the
menu that is purposefully vague on whether or not it is actually made by the chef in the kitchen or
not a lot of places will have soup on the menu but the soup tends to be either canned or bagged and
Frozen meaning you end up paying restaurant prey prices for pre-made soup that you could have just
bought at the grocery store for much less this type of soup is also not usually the best quality
which is fine when you're paying a couple of bucks at the store for the soup but when you're out at
a restaurant paying over five dollars for soup you would at least expect it to be handmade from fresh
ingredients a lot of people do not really think to ask they just assume that the soup served at
a restaurant must be made by the kitchen staff but a lot of places take shortcuts to increase profit
margins and also save time as they could just microwave or warm this soup up in a big batch
and call it a day it's cheaper so unless you're absolutely sure that the soup is freshly made in
the restaurant's kitchen you would be better off ordering something else from the menu free samples
of packaged Goods but it's free so I will continue to chew getting free things always seems like a
good thing I mean who doesn't want something that doesn't actually cost anything tell me about it
free samples are a fantastic way for stores of all kinds to draw people in and make them want to
stay and make a purchase even if the free sample itself is not anything too unique whether you use
it for yourself or pass it on to someone else free samples are never really refused by anyone and you
may even find your next favorite product by trying out new things but you may want to think twice
if you're offered a free sample at a restaurant and it's something pre-packaged there's a reason
they're offering it free and not selling it and usually that reason is not out of the goodness
of their hearts a lot of restaurants will also attach a free sample of an item onto another
menu item and usually that's because the menu item does not sell as well as they would like so adding
a freebie increases the odds of people ordering it typically restaurants only hand these kinds
of free samples out when the packaged product is expired expiring soon or is something that simply
just isn't good and didn't sell so they want to get it out of their store while you may still be
tempted to take these free samples do so at your own risk show your support by hitting that like
button we do appreciate it now let's keep going The Show Goes On avocado here have an avocado yay
avocados have become a hugely popular food to eat in recent years they're super healthy for you and
can be added to just about anything to enhance the flavor Unfortunately they do not keep for
very long after being cut or prepared they'll turn brown and mushy quickly and the flavor
will be completely off as well as the texture most restaurants prep their avocados in the morning and
do not prep anymore throughout the day unless they happen to run out meaning that those who order
anything with avocado later in the day are going to get the old ones that have been sitting and
turning brown oh that's hot unless the kitchen can guarantee that the avocado for your dish has been
freshly cut to use specifically for your meal or the dish was freshly made recently it's probably
best to skip those avocado menu items when dining out later in the day drink garnish wait that's
a garnish you're not supposed to eat that what ordering any drinks that come with a fresh Citrus
or fruit slice on the rim or in the drink itself can be a bit of a risk this may seem confusing but
there is a good reason behind why this is risky many times these sliced fruits have been sitting
out in the open for an extended period often completely uncovered as well things can drop
in the dishes if they're uncovered or insects can find their way to the sweet meal offered by
the uncovered fruit as well aside from the fact that these fruit slices are not usually properly
refrigerated or covered a lot of times when staff are in a rush they'll often forego using gloves or
tongs to pick up the fruit slices and we'll grab them with their hands without having washed them
they could have touched countless things including other food dirty cups left behind by other diners
or even handled money just before touching those fruit slices with their bare hands you know this
is enough to turn most people off of ordering a garnish with their drink unfortunately even if you
watch your server use gloves or tongs that doesn't mean others have and the those fruit slices may
already be contaminated by bacteria you're much better off asking to skip the fruit slice or
other garnish as there's no real guarantee that they've not been exposed to who knows what secret
menu large black coffee do you mean aventi a lot of people have probably heard of Starbucks in
their fabled secret menu items it's been written about all over the Internet and posts about these
secret menu items have been around for a few years now but the thing with these supposed secret menu
items is they're not actually menu items at all these are recipes that have just been made up and
passed around whether they were made by Starbucks Baristas themselves or by customers who decided
they wanted something specific and unique but these so-called secret menu items are the bane of
Starbucks employees it's too much too much aside from the fact that the employees hate having to
try and decipher what these secret menu items might be you're also not likely to get the same
flavor and consistency every time you order it and this is because of the simple fact that there is
no actual recipe to follow normally with drinks from places like Starbucks there is an exact
recipe set into place to ensure every time a drink is made it's consistent with these made up secret
menu drinks there's absolutely no consistency and the recipe is just estimated or can change after
being passed around from person to person with the result not being what was expected at all next
time you take a trip to Starbucks for the sake of everyone stick to ordering items that are actually
offered on the menu one-off items our special today is coho salmon sounds disgusting do you have
chicken fingers most restaurants have something that they specialize in whether it's Mexican food
seafood or something else altogether usually they try to have some some sort of consistent
style when it comes to what they serve this helps the restaurant serve food with the best quality
possible without having to have too many different types of ingredients on hand the more ingredients
that a restaurant has to keep on hand the more likely they will have to throw things out which
is equivalent to throwing out money they also do this to make sure their chefs can cook top-notch
meals in a certain style rather than just be average in different styles so if you head to your
local sushi place and you see a hamburger on the menu you should probably just avoid it it's much
better to stick to what the restaurant focuses on trust me when I say this the restaurant is
more likely to produce quality food because it's what they're set up to make rather than attempting
to make something that is completely different from anything else on the menu even if the chef
is perfectly capable of preparing different types of food you're usually getting subpar ingredients
because the restaurant may not use those ingredients in any of their usual dishes meaning
they will probably take less care to make sure they're well capped and in good quality popcorn
butter I know you like extra butter popcorn with extra butter is a treat for most people whether
you're heading to the movie theater to catch the latest release or to the stadium to catch a game
popcorn with added butter is a favorite among many in fact a lot of people actually go to the movie
theater just to get the popcorn and there are even places where you can order movie theater popcorn
from food Courier Services that's how much it's loved while this overly salty and greasy snack is
extremely tempting it may be best to avoid it the next time you go out the butter warmers used are
very rarely cleaned in a lot of places meaning the butter contained within is just sitting in
what could be weeks of grime and grease that has never been cleaned out aside from that they tend
to not be sealed completely which means all sorts of bugs and bacteria can get in there and take a
little swim through the butter before it goes on your pot popcorn it's not often that employees pop
open the top of the dispenser to make sure all is well so if a bug gets in there after the initial
check to see how full the warmer is it could be floating in the butter for the entire rest of the
day you might be better off choosing a different overpriced snack of which there are usually plenty
of options your best bet is something pre-packaged because at least you know that factories are
held to higher cleanliness standards than movie theaters and stadiums typically are ice cream I
think I'd like a hot fudge sundae ice cream is a popular dessert option and has been for many
years so while it's fine order ice cream at a restaurant if it's served as a dessert topping
to go with something else it's not suggested to order ice cream on its own unless it's handmade or
something like gelato when it comes to ordering ice cream at restaurants aside from soft serve
found at fast food Outlets you're usually just getting scoops of regular supermarket style ice
cream unacceptable in that case you could have just bought a whole container of it for the same
or similar price as you will pay at the restaurant for a single serving of it a serving of ice cream
from a restaurant on its own is not worth the cost unless you really really like ice cream and have
to have it right that second you're better off stopping at your local ice cream shop on the way
home or you probably already have the same ice cream in the freezer at home so save your money
and chew something else off of the dessert menu that's actually made in the restaurant rather than
just scooped from the same Supermarket ice cream container you can get on your own think about it
