The waitress/ hostess, Chen, NEEDS to get promoted, given a raise, ANYTHING!!!
For context, I’m in a summer program, and today was a fast day. To compensate for the hunger, we went to this restaurant. Now, it was a fixed menu, and no one could specifically order something that wasn’t being served. I didn’t listen and still tried to order.
The staff by the kitchens were so rude, and they weren’t paying attention to me…
Except for Chen.
She asked me (in a very kind tone) what I wanted, and when I told her what I wanted but she didn’t understand me, she was like “lemme show you the menu so you can see what I CAN do” and then when she put it in I was like “pls make sure there isn’t a lot of oil in the process of making the food” (bit extra but oily things make me nauseous, so) and she said she’d tell the chef.
But this was… astronomically kind…
So me and my group were getting ready to leave, and while I never specified whether my food would be dine in or to go, when I went to get my food, it was ALREADY in a to go container!!!!!!! HOW?!! She couldn’t have known, but she was awesome and so accommodating. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
