TexasMiss 314 Posted July 21, 2013 I hate eating out for a few reasons. I won't eat out with people who don't know about my surgery now (just family and close friends) because of comments made each time I've tried... nothing to drink? are you sure? why aren't you eating? and the waitress kept asking over and over and then pointing out to everyone at the table that's is ok, they don't charge for Water. I wanted to crawl under the table and die...especially when she brought me a tea with my meal and then looked all offended when I didn't drink it. I just order a water and let it sit there, or ask for my drink in a to-go cup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully they'll leave it alone after that... And I hate that they think its about $! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwi63 22 Posted July 27, 2013 I have a card that explains but I've only had an issue with Swiss Chalet. Waitress didn't want to let me order from the kids menu. I've also eaten at the bar and hubby and I share. I take a little meat and some veg. Makes it a cheap dinner too because we're only paying for 1 meal.

I don't eat enough for my own plate! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fixerupper 335 Posted July 28, 2013 I always share or just order an appetizer. I do always tip extra though., as if we it's two Entrees. I think that's fair since we're taking the servers table from what would otherwise be a higher sale. 2 Wayless and Mrs.RRn reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
