Why are Asians so incompetent? They embarrassed me in front of my family by saying my card was declined when it was really them fucking up

Do you guys appreciate delicatessens the way I do?
I have bad nerves. But today I stopped by a deli in my new neighborhood, came home, and had a delicious, worry-free meal. Now I feel great!
This marvel of civilization is so precious. Just tonight for $20, I was able to feast on ox roast, meat balls, sausage w/ peppers, tasty potato salad, cold roast chicken and ambrosia.
I didn't have to cook anything. A delicious affordable meal and leftovers for days
And look at all the stuff you can get. Sure, cured meats and cheeses, but delicious salads of every sort too. Deserts, pastas, spread, fresh sandwiches. Its already cooked, and tasty. Hot and cold, soups and snacks, sides and entree's, German, Polish, Italian- Roasted! Baked! Fried! Sauced! Seasoned! Gravy and toppings! All just ready to order to enjoy at home!
I may have to write an ode to Deli workers. You are the heart of a decent supermarket, and make a small grocery a local super star.
Tomorrow all I need is a bit of bread, and for lunch I will head-dive into the chicken salad awaiting my rapture.
Give a shout out to your favorite deli or deli dish! (if you can pick just one... or two... or three.... ^^)
Be blessed.

My father would only eat rare beef. And, from him, I learned a great ordering technique.
When the waiter/waitress asked him how he would like his steak cooked, he would say, "I would like my steak cooked...", and then pause. He wouldn't say anything until the server stopped writing, and looked at him. Once dad had, and held, eye contact, he would grin, and say, with the slightest of a nod from his head, "rare", while looking the server straight in the eyes.
And, after the meal, he would make the effort to thank the waiter/waitress for insuring that his meal was prepared to his liking, (often, personally giving a few extra bucks to the person, as tip addendum). And, he would ask our server to pass along his thanks to the entire kitchen staff.
With this method, it was very seldom that he was ever put in the position of sending his order back.
Even when, rarely, his order was overcooked, our server seemed to always be at our table, asking if his steak was cooked to his liking. Again, if he paused, looked at his steak, and cocked his head just a bit to the side, the server was always more than happy to bring him another steak, properly cooked.
I saw this method work in restaurants that we frequented, and restaurants in which we were first timers. And, I've adopted this method. For some reason, it works.
Yoroshiku,
Andy

Part of my weekly tradition is treating myself to breakfast at Waffle House every Friday and Saturday before I head into work. I usually spend about 45 min there and read the news and drink several cups of coffee, and usually spend ~$7.50 per meal.
I always give the waitress $10 even to cover the bill and she keeps the change. Usually, my minimum tip at a restaurant is $4, but it's always so cheap over here that even $4 is a 50% and I'm there so often. What do y'all think?

Besides that retardation, there are certain benefits of tipping well in an establishment you're a regular customer of.
Going on a first date soon, it's at a restaraunt. What are some red flags or deal breakers that wouldn't fly at your table?

I miss when you could smoke in them. They were the last hold out of what you would call a real man's diner. Only truckers and drunks.go there and all the waitresses are burnt out or drug addicts. Legit my favorite restaurant.

I got a 3lb King salmon fillet, skin still on it. How do I grill it perfectly medium rare? That is like 110F to 125F right?
Was thinking about doing it skin side down on medium, then flipping it over and putting it on foil to finish the top all nice.

Wow, I've never even thought about cooking salmon as anything else than well done. I have nothing against raw salmon, I like stuff such as cured salmon or salmon sushi, but in a fillet? I can't see how the texture could be palatable.
>>
>>8819984
Slightly cooking it still takes away from the slimy texture so medium rare salmon actually has a pleasant texture and more of the flavor of raw salmon, which I personally enjoy but I feel is enhanced by being seared a little
>>
>>8819946
Be careful it doesn't stick to the grill. Get it super hot and oil it first. Depending on how hot the fire is, I would think no more than 3-4 minutes per side.

A spiral ham (pineapple and glaze), green bean casserole, some "build your own" hourdourves (crackers, carrot puree, sauteed red onion, summer sausage and a few other odds and ends).
My mom is bringing dessert and my gf parents are bring a veg, I have no clue about either one. Should be a fun family event though.

If it's high quality beef and to do it old school, then form patties, salt & black pepper on both sides and pan fry/grill until ready.
If it's cheap meat then add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika and onion powder(if you have it) to the beef and then pan fry it.
Doing it this way will pretty much take away from any decent beef flavor, so dont do this with good meat.
