Ask The Salty Waitress: Our one friend hates the adventurous restaurants we love
　　Hi Salty. I’ve been friends with three women since childhood, and we’ll be friends forever. We try to meet once a week to catch up, and make an attempt to explore a new restaurant. But one of my friends, I’ll call her “Emily,” is the furthest thing from an adventurous...

Ask The Salty Waitress: We should tip stadium food vendors, right?
　　Dear Salty: Please help me figure out whether I’m nuts. I took my kids to a baseball game, and we were seated at the end of the aisle. This guy a few seats in, toward the center of the row, flagged down a hot dog vendor midway through the game....

Ask The Salty Waitress: I took home the unopened bottle of wine I brought to the dinner party
　　Dear Salty: I was invited to a dinner party the other week. I brought two bottles of wine to my friend’s house, a sparkling rosé and a Viognier. The dinner was fun, but at the end of the night, we still hadn’t pulled the Viognier out of the fridge. The...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Server wants to clear our plates but there's one last bite left
　　Dear Salty: We went out with friends for dinner last week. I ordered a dish of short ribs that was delicious, super rich, and cost $28. It took me a long time to go through it, and even when everyone else at the table was clearly done, there was still...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Can I help myself to a straw or napkin from behind the bar?
　　Hey Salty: As someone sitting at a bar, what are the things I can reach for and what’s off limits? I’ve never felt weird about grabbing a napkin, but I’ve seen others go for olives, citrus, straws, etc. 　　Thanks! 　　Casey 　　Hi Casey, 　　Bless you for asking. That already tells me...

Ask The Salty Waitress: When and how much should I tip hotel housekeeping?
　　Dear Salty, I’ve started traveling quite a bit for work and find myself in hotels 1-2 weeks a month. For no other reason than I like to have my privacy, I hang the Do Not Disturb sign or let the front desk I decline housekeeping service until I check out....

Ask The Salty Waitress: The restaurant won’t make my curry spicy enough
　　Dear Salty: Over the past year, I’ve been going to a small, local Japanese curry place that lets you pick your preferred spiciness on a scale from 1 to 10. During my early visits, I started with a 5 or 6 and was pretty happy with my order, but I...

Ask The Salty Waitress: What does it take to get thrown out of a bar?
　　Dear Salty: A friend and I were going out for a drink recently at a new-ish spot neither of us had been to before. While we were on round two, a dude came in, obviously altered in some way—maybe drunk, maybe high, not sure. Whatever it was, my radar beeped...

Ask The Salty Waitress: What are the rules of sneaking food into a movie?
　　Dear Salty: My adult daughter and I go to a couple movies together every month. It’s one of our rare bonding activities and I really look forward to it. But wow, theater food is expensive! I’ve taken to bringing in our own snacks in my bag, which seems to work...

Ask The Salty Waitress: My manager wants us to reuse bread
　　Dear Salty: I just moved to a new town and got a job as a server at a diner. It’s mostly fine so far, but there’s one issue. My manager wants us to reuse bread from baskets for new tables. Everywhere else I’ve worked that had bread baskets, we threw...

Ask The Salty Waitress: I just want folks to stop hovering over my grill
　　Dear Salty: Recently I was hosting a dinner party and decided the weather was nice enough to grill outside. I’m not the most proficient griller, but I can hold my own. My brother, however, who considers himself a master griller, came over for the party, and was basically hovering over...

Ask the Salty Waitress: Let's talk about the huge pay gap between servers and cooks
　　Dear Salty: Do you have any comments or thoughts you’d care to share on the pay disparity between the front and back of the house? Or is this situation endemic only in my area? 　　Servers where I live routinely make two to four times what the cooks make, once you...

Ask The Salty Waitress: Ew, my server told me she’s sick
　　Dear Salty: We attended an evening commencement ceremony recently. We ate before it started, but after sitting through the endless speeches we needed a snack. Head over to a local diner-type spot and it’s crowded—everyone at the graduation has the same idea. It’s fine, we’re not in a hurry, we...
