Unique and humorous customer requests in the restaurant service industry often leave staff perplexed. One customer at Red Lobster was frustrated upon receiving fish after ordering salmon steak. In a Paris café, an American ordered French toast but got regular toast instead, leading to confusion. An older diner ordered a medium rare steak but complained about blood when served correctly. A woman inquired about 'shipwrecked' eggs but couldn't specify her preference, showcasing strange food terminology and expectations.
Buddy of mine worked at Red Lobster. Customer ordered 'salmon steak.' Customer was very upset that he was served fish.
I was at a café in Paris, France, and two American dudes were at a table next to me. One guy ordered a French toast, and I knew what was coming. The girl gave him a weird look and went back to the kitchen. She came back with toast. He was bewildered at first, then got mad. I was dying laughing.
I once had an older guy order a New York strip, medium rare. It came out perfectly medium rare. He cut into it and gasped, 'It's bloody!' I restated that he ordered medium rare. 'I know what I ordered, but I don't want no damn blood in it!' He wanted it well done.
I had a lady ask to make her eggs 'shipwrecked.' When I questioned what that meant, she didn't really have an answer. She settled on something else, but I still have no idea what she actually wanted.
