dishes

One of the things we don't miss about restaurants is the need to make increasingly inconvenient, and sometimes potentially dangerous presentation. For example, serving food on top of a bed of bite-sized rocks is kind of a bad idea. Here are outlandish restaurant presentations, from broccoli on barbed wire to burgers on a guitar.

Sure, presentation is important in fancy restaurants, but who wants to pick their dinner out of a comb? You can't blame people for trying something new, but you can totally blame a restaurant for serving a hamburger on a brick and charging an extra five bucks. There are loads of things restaurants try to use instead of dishes.

Sure, it's fun to spice up the dining experience with some clever presentation, but at the end of the day it's sort of telling when a restaurant puts less emphasis on the food itself and more on the vintage telephone it's served on. Sometimes it's hard to tell what part of the dish is actually edible, especially in the case of minerals that look a lot like food.

Being understaffed and having a manager who refuses to do any extra work is a recipe for a bad day. When this employee was told they had to stay late just because their manager wasn't willing to help, they pulled a classic reverse Uno card move. There are a surprising amount of bad bosses out there, like this incompetent manager who threw away 40 computers. or this boss who told a guy to guard a spill.
