Yup. I still have mine from 25 years ago. Apparently it is cheaper to make them disposable rather than having to handle contaminated material and then clean and autoclave them.

I don't think it's a standard thing at steakhouses specifically so much as standard at upscale restaurants. Even still, there's only so much you can do with mashed potatoes for them to cost that much. I think I'd pay up to $20 for truffle fries though, maybe add some aioli, so good.

They do that on purpose. If you leave one wall standing then it’s not considered a “new build” but rather a renovation. I believe it’s done as there are are different rules/regulations based on new build vs renovation.

Not to people who know about such things. Would you be surprised to see a reference to Granny Smith apples?

When you’ve resorted to backlit Menus you’ve turned the lights to far down. This idea that fancy restaurants are poorly lit is extremely dumb.

For tickets it makes sense. But I 100% demand a human who understands the intricacies of "extra butter" when prepping my popcorn.
I want it swimming. I want so much butter that I will have oily shits for the next 3 days.

Because if they turn up the lights the building explodes… or something.

Interesting numbers. Do you have any citations?
Here's what I was able to find: American Cancer Society: 2023 SPECIAL SECTION: LUNG CANCER
Page 32: > The lifetime risk of developing lung cancer is approximately 6.2% among men and 5.8% among women, or 1 in 16 men and 1 in 17 women during their lifetime (Table 6).
> However, these probabilities are based on lung cancer occurrence in the general population so the risk is substantially higher for those with a history of smoking. 15
Page 37: >The primary risk factor for lung cancer is cigarette smoking, which accounts for about 80% of lung cancer cases and deaths (Figure 4).1 Cigarette smoking increases the risk of lung cancer 25-fold in both men and women compared to people who never smoked.15

So clearly the answer is "I have never worked in the food service industry".
The reason I asked, is because if you had you would realize that when you do something 1000x a day, 5-6 days a week, for years, you naturally have a few mishaps here and there. The fact that you will completely drop a place for something simple like this is telling to both your character and your experience.
Make sense?
