From Bon Appétit: The Restaurant Commandments

From Bon Appétit: The Restaurant Commandments

September 1, 2015 by Rachel Raybin Leave a Comment

Do you ever wonder what restaurants think when they see that your party of four is actually a party of two humans and two small howler monkeys? Believe it or not, the writers at Bon Appétit actually sympathize, and have offered some tips to improve your experience dining with children.

And I mean, how much worse could it possibly get? You’re already delivering threats between each humongous, tasteless bite, flinging cash at the server, and slinking out the door. There’s nowhere to go but up.

My favorite is Commandment #6: “Get French Fries. These have never not worked.”
