I’ve lost count the amount of times that I’ve had to sit back at a restaurant or café and just thought to myself – Why?
For some reason, somewhere along the line, someone thought it was a brilliant idea to put a napkin underneath food when giving it to a customer – that person was wrong. Why someone would think that a napkin isn’t going to get stuck to the bottom of food is beyond my mere mortal brain capacity. Especially things like toasted sandwiches that have melting cheese, it’s just a recipe for disaster. I’ve even had this conversation with a hospitality teacher who said they didn’t know where it came from and they never ever teach students to do it.
So where did it come from? And can it please go back there now?
