15 secrets your waiter will never tell you....

My best friend was a cook at McDs for a while. His stories kept me away from fast food for about a year. You dont even want to know. (This was the one on 33rd or 39th south, I forget which, and between main and state in SLC, around 1977-78)

That statement seems a bit presumptuous. As a matter of fact, I do want to know.

I worked in fast food for 11 years. If I ever saw anything like this, the person got fired, including have sex on the doughmaster's table in the middle of the night.

That doesn't ease our fears. It only confirms them.

is someone seriously called the doughmaster? awesome.

I won't be ordering the special anymore.

When I worked at the Broiler the fish, clams, calamari, etc. that was just about to not be good and was not going to get sold before it could be used frequently became a gumbo special. So that one is true. But it would not be right to say it was almost spoiled. It was still good.

Did she at least get a cashmere sweater out of the deal?

Ah, I miss Pancho Villa's. I remember them getting shut down be the Board of Health and then, when they reopened, things just weren't the same ever again.

Really? I hadn't heard that.. But I've been away from SLC for a long time. I didn't know it was gone until I drove past it a few years ago, and saw the lot. Always wondered what happened.

Good food, I thought. Always very busy when I worked there.

Here is the answer for the squeamish - restaurants with open kitchens visible to customers are becoming more common. If kitchens are open and visible the chances of these disgusting shenanigans, unauthorized food-samplings, booger-dropping, fecal-matter-mixing and semen-stirring drop pretty drastically.

Hmmm maybe a website that for squeamish diners that want to know the restaurants with open kitchens isn't a bad idea.

I was a doughmaster for six months. I could crack walnuts with my bare hands. Then I got promoted and never looked back. Making all that pan dough at 5AM SUCKS.

I'd like to know, too. I worked right around the corner from that one on 33rd and main. And, you guessed it, I've eaten there quite a few times.

Please...spill. I feel a retro-active wretch coming on.

My daughter was a waitress at a "nice" Greek restaurant in town. She related that when uneaten soup came back to the kitchen it would be put back in the tureen to be served again.

How do you know if it was uneaten? I mean, what if they take a bite or two and decide they don't like it?

Either way it's a SHUT-THEIR-ASSES-DOWN violation of the Health Code.

No kidding. I don't think they can recycle the bread either.
