Is Imitation Always the Sincerest Form of Flattery?
it's really about time someone called that guy out. i couldn't argee with you more Ed. The world sucks when people do stuff like this. The fact that he's been all over the press lately is just more proof how the PR machine and cash can buy you press. UGH!
I dig Rebecca Charles even more now and it gives me more reason to enjoy my time at Pearl. And as David Chang would say: "shut up and eat." (only not at the other Ed's place)

"Can I have the eggplant Parmesan with eggplant instead of veal? I mean! Chicken? And the eggplant?"
It was actually pretty adorable, because it seemed the high-school-age couple was on a first date, and then even funnier was when the young man tried to order wine-- and not just any wine, but white Zin.

I once overheard a couple arguing over what foie gras actually was. The wife had it right, but the husband INSISTED that the delicacy was the brain of a duck, to which the wife replied, "This is exactly why the kids don't eat out with you!"

When I was a teenager I worked at a fast food place. We were short people one night so the drive-through speaker volume was turned up high so everyone in the kitchen area could hear it since we were all working on both drive-through and dining room orders at once. This unfortunately also meant the people in the dining room could hear it.
Guy drove through and was obviously drunk, ordering very slowly and said he wanted a "bunch" of cheeseburgers. After clarifying that "a bunch" was three, he was asked what he wanted on them. He was mumbling but it was really loud, so everyone in the dining room was listening too, "I dunno, ketchup, mustard..." (pause) "Oh, and PICKLES. A *SHITLOAD* OF PICKLES!" Everyone in the kitchen guffawed and the people in the dining room all either laughed or looked horrified.

I waitressed at a local pizza parlor, and had a customer ask me once if I could have the pizza made with fat-free cheese and fat-free pepperoni.
