    Hello I Spanish person and have to say one thing. Tapas isn't a plate for dinner, is a food that bar gives you FREE when you buy one drink (some places put a price on them but is cheap). In the history people use they for “tapar" (cover) the glass of drink and protect them for insects like flyes... Maybe everyone must visit Spain and enjoy the Tapas, Sun, beaches, culture, art, flamenco, mountain... Spain is different and you enjoy this!

  • @AndresALandaeta
    @AndresALandaeta Před 9 lety +3

    I do too hate being asked so many questions when I take my seat. I have worked as a server before, they make a job that should be easy, complicated, and that usually comes from the restaurant's owners. The menu itself should have most of the information that I need to know for me to pick my entree, have visuals too. the plates ARE small nowadays, it's crazy- not only you have to wait a hour to get your food but when it gets there is so tiny you just want to cry lol

    The small plates that she talked about called "tapas" are the starters. The most common one in Spain is a plate of green olives. They are never considered an actual course of the meal, just a small appetizer. And don't say I don't know what I'm talking about. I'm Spanish.

  • @Dan5819
    @Dan5819 Před 9 lety +10

    So funny. She's right -- those expensive restaurants in expensive areas of Los Angeles have small plates -- and they put the tiniest bid of food in the center of the plate -- and charge big bucks for it. I was taken out a couple times to them by other people and was starving after eating the main course while my hypnotized dinner companions were going "I'm stuffed" for hours afterwards. So "Have you eaten here before" probably means "So have you been hypnotized yet?"

    I think the reason they ask you/do those things is because you know how many people complain about stupid little shit like that. Like asking about stuff on the menu or complain because they have been there or because they haven't. Though those things seem silly to us. Undoubtedly someone has complained to make it that way

But such an arrogant attitude made me quit that job after 15 years. It should bei called host and not servant. We are paid for being your host and not to be treated Like a slave. A wise man once Said: you can tell the charactere of a person by watching how he treats the waiter and not how he treats his company. Still... I Love You Ellen. I really do.

    Waitress is going to explain the menu if you haven't been there before. She probably has more tables to take care so asked you those questions if you're gonna need her guidance at the beginning. People think that being waitress is all about bringing a plate you asked for but it's more than that and an exhausting job. Ellen kinda sounds arrogant here and I don't like that attitude. People work so hard to get that small amount of tip while you're making thousands per hour. I know you're gonna tip well Ellen but a little empathy is nothing that hard.

      I'm honestly not trying to start a fight, but just bc Ellen has a talk show, doesn't mean she's not a stand up comedian-this is what THEY do, take the most mundane experiences and make them funny. It's just for a laugh, she's not telling everyone waiters/waitresses are working a pointless job-remember last year when she hooked that super nice waitress up with cars and money? I understand where you're coming from, and I can only imagine coming home from complaining costumers and hearing this on tv wasn't the relaxing humor you expected-but she wasn't being mean, just her view on dining.

      Guys don't get me wrong all I asked for is empathy. I love Ellen and I know this is for fun but I sensed a lack of empathy here that's all.

      Ellen did work as a waitress and she has acknowledged how hard that job is on the show before. This isn't about the waiters anyway, it's the management who have these policies to serve people as quickly as possible to make room for new people, this whole thing about, have you dined with us before is part of that and I also would find it a little annoying to be asked if I have dined there before, Just give me the menu and if I have questions I will ask when I take my order and if you don't have time for my questions then I might as well not go eat your restaurant in the first place. And this is not to put down the waiters, it's about the instructions they get from management.
