00:00Looking at the menu before you arrive.
00:02There's no need.
00:03Like, I'd rather sit and I'm the worst
00:05because I'll, like, get to the restaurant
00:07and talk for 20 minutes
00:08and then, like, not look at the menu once
00:10and then have to figure out, like,
00:11it's more fun to just run through the menu
00:13and just pick random things and go for it.
00:15Asking for menu substitution.
00:17None of that. None of that.
00:18You're going to a restaurant,
00:18you want substitutions, just stay home.
00:20Like, go to the restaurant and enjoy it
00:21how it's intended to be.
00:22Unless you have, like, some crazy,
00:24like, you're gonna die allergy,
00:25just let them do their thing.
00:27Ordering the most expensive thing on the menu.
00:30I don't think so.
00:31Like, the, like, most expensive flex
00:33isn't necessarily the best thing
00:34or the most tasty thing, in my opinion.
00:36Asking the server what's best.
00:38Oh, I love that.
00:39Of course.
00:39You gotta get the inside.
00:40That's insider trading.
00:41You have to know what's good and what's not good.
00:44Taking photos of your food before eating.
00:46Yeah, that's fine.
00:46You can do that.
00:47You gotta show love to where you're going
00:49and the restaurant's like, come on,
00:50it's a small business,
00:51so you gotta give them love.
00:53A group splitting one entree.
00:55No, terrible.
00:56No, a group splitting?
00:57No, you can, you can,
00:59I'm down for sharing everything,
01:00but, like, a group can't,
01:01you gotta get multiple entrees to split.
01:03Sending food back.
01:04Only if it's just not right.
01:05Like, if it's just, like, you're being picky
01:07and you're, like, trying to be a hater,
01:09don't do that.
01:09But if it's, like, not cooked
01:11and it's something egregiously burned
01:13or, like, it's gotta be egregious,
01:14in my opinion, to send it back.
01:16Adding salt before tasting it.
01:18Stop it right now.
01:19There shouldn't be salt on the table.
01:20If you're sending me food,
01:22I want you to season it right.
01:23There shouldn't be salt on the table.
