Although I appreciate your willingness to hover over my shoulder like a hummingbird jacked up up and away on a palmful of high grade amphetamines, I will not know, until I have tasted what you have just placed before me, whether or not I would like you to supplement it with freshly ground black pepper via the enormous mill aggressively pressed against your chest like a rifle. It is in exceedingly poor taste to chirp an affirmative without first sampling the food that someone with much more skill with a skillet than I can ever hope to achieve has prepared.
fresh-baked at 06:44 PMI have found waitstaff at most "better" American restaurants (meaning anything family-oriented and not fast food), are cloyingly and falsely chirpy in the first place; this is clearly due to intensive training. While it is much better than the surly, pimply-faced kids who serve fries at other places, it is still annoying, and they certainly do rush to ask if patrons want grated parmesan or pepper before you've had a chance to taste the food. (Pasta is the exception; I'll ask them to just leave the cheese on the table, or else I make them grate until their arms ache.)
