Craziest Valentine's Day Customer Comment?
So I served a table on Monday night which was just a middle-aged couple out for pizza on Valentine's Day. They seemed pretty normal compared to a lot of customers I've had, but the comment the woman gave me at the end of the meal was just (excuse the lack of a more politically correct word) crazy! Okay, so by now you're thinking "Come on...just tell me what she said." Well, okay then, I will. She said "This is the best Valentine's Day meal I've ever had! I really enjoyed it." Seriously, after over a half of a century of Valentine's Day dinners, we serve you pizza with fungus(mushrooms), olives, and diced tomatoes and you think it's the best Valentine's meal ever? All I could do was smile and say, "I'm glad you enjoyed it, Ma'am." But all the while she was complimenting the meal, I was standing in awe...I mean our pizza isn't even homemade...it's cookie-cutter pizza. It's not made in a brick oven, or with homemade sauce, or with freshly grated mozzarella...it's really quite ordinary. But as my Grandma would say, "To each their own." So to you, the older woman with low expectations, I say this: Keep your pizza with fungus, and I'll have my perfectly cooked steak with roasted vegetables and freshly baked rolls spread with cinnamon butter!
