UNO MOMENTO POR FAVOR

Why feel miserable? Life is good.

The Sexth Sinse




I was gonna blog bout women but I just came out of a argument with a colleague who took the time and effort to cook some spagetti and pasta for dinner. After some tasting I decided to add more extra light virgin olive oil, which prompted him to comment on my behaviour. With a constipated face asking me in a nice and well mannered tone if his cooking was under par, which I denied knowing very well his taste. I responded that it was my natural taste to prefer a heavier virgin olive oil flavor. No arguement yet. Instead he decides to share a story:-

In a restaurant which he was previously working at, there was an incident whereby the customer behaved in a similiar manner as I did by adding or in his words 'pouring' chilli sauce and handfuls of salt (I think he was exaggerating). Upon seeing this, the cook kindly asked the customer if his cooking was bad or under expectations, to which the customer promptly denied and explained his peculiar taste and preference for such unusual taste. In response the cook proceeded to politely ask the customer to leave the restaurant premises with the meal on the house.

My immediate response was "Which restaurant is this?". The answer that followed was "Why?". I explained that I wanted to know because I felt this was in my opinion bad service. My colleague however, appalled by my reaction to his story explained carefully how polite the cook was in asking the customer to leave. I think it doesn't matter how polite the cook was, this was bad service nonetheless for the customer is always right. A key principal for any service oriented busineses. This lead to a heated arguement with my colleague and my cousin even who was present being annoyed and in an apparently bad mannered exit to the conversation. Which I feel was because due to my overwhelming arguement.

My question is, am I so wrong to think that the customer was being really polite and understanding to not even complain to the cook for such a tasteless dish? I think it would've only been an insult to the cook had the customer take one bite, and asked for the bill and leave.

In the end, I still don't know which restaurant this was, for I would never visit such a restaurant with such loose customer service regulations.
