He is working in a kitchen it is always stressful. You have a lot to do and people get mad if they don't get their food quickly. Then you have to deal with waiter problems, busses problems of not having plates washed to keep up with the influx of customers. A restaurant kitchen will have about 5 to 8 cooks depending on the place. Usually when an order comes in, the head cook will call out what he needs. Another cook will repeat back, which confirms they will make it. They sometimes forget which order they were making something for. It is also hot as shit, and you have to wear heavy clothes.
I work at a McDonald's, and a lady asked for a cheeseburger with no cheese. I told her that a cheeseburger with no cheese is just a hamburger, and then she told me she "didn't want no hamburger" and wanted a cheeseburger without cheese.
I kinda did this with a burger too... and they looked at me funny (obviously). Until I explained that having the all in one burger with less stuff was 10 cents cheaper than adding a bit more bacon to a regular cheese bacon burger. It was just bad pricing on their part.
Never worked at McDonalds, but working at Starbucks, whenever someone ordered a no foam Cappacino(foam is basically what makes it a cappacino) I would just make the latte they asked for and call it a no foam cappuccino just to get them out the store. Whenever new people would ask why, I'd tell them "we're paid to serve coffee, not educate in it 😂".
Both chefs' attitudes fight for dominance in my brain. "I'm experienced enough to translate what the customer probably meant" and "did you listen to the words you just said out loud?"
I’ve worked as a prep chef in multiple kitchens over the years and this scene just hits so hard. The amount of dumbass orders that come in is astonishing, and then the server that has to deal with it on top of everything. I do not miss those days.
My cousin and I are both Chefs. He is Chef 1(Because he lose his temper fast ) And Im second one.(im more calm guy) Always laugh when I see this scene.
So, Chef 1 is openly aggressive but only to prove a point and Chef 2 is openly friendly but kind of a piece of shit if you focus on him? Yeah, I see that.
I work as a chef in a kitchen and I swear to god a lady ordered a vegan omelette. She looked very sure of herself as if I was crazy for not understanding.
Ah I get your confusion, but a vegan omelet does exist (sorta). It's made with besan (a type of cornstarch flour) batter with chopped vegetables and seasoning.
Reminds me of a bizzare experience I had at a restaurant when I ordered soda with ice. The lady came back serving me just the glass with ice and said they're out of soda, then left without even asking me if I wanted something else.
HAHAHA, Silly waitress. She prolly made her glass of ice, held it and was looking for the soda, Couldn't find it and brought you the iced cup. That is a funny moment.
Gold! I was in Italy and wanted a Latte Macchiato. I ordered a "latte" - that's just what you say over here - obviously it only means milk in italian. Didn't think that far, I got a glass of hot milk and just pretended that was what I wanted. Another day I ordered an iced coffee and they were really confused, then gave me an espresso with ice. Or should I say ice with an espresso... 2 week holiday, I didn't manage to get normal milk coffee once.
@@99xara99 lmao thats on you, if you wouldve asked specifically for a latte macchiato im pretty sure they wouldve made it. And I dont think iced coffees is such a thing in italy
I like how she hesitates to leave the plate, she's so confused and afraid that she'll do something wrong. Then he said "there you go" and her confidence came back lol
@@fh854 why ? Even I can pretend these kinda b.s. ... For eg if there's a car video :- 'been in the automobile industry for 32 years, .... Blah blah' ...
@@speed999-uj5kr you don't have to trust every person you meet on the internet but when it comes to harmless conversation like this you can just not be an ass about it. Nobody is going to give you their fucking certificate just to prove that they can relate to this video.
When I was in like, 2nd grade or so I asked my mom, who was a professional cook, for the same thing because we were out of eggs at the time. She was very much like that 2nd chef there in trying to explain it to me but when I insisted she just went into the kitchen, slapped a slice of american cheese on a plate, added a bit of seasoning and microwaved it. Didn't make me eat it thankfully but the lesson was learned. Makes me wish I'd have found this clip before she passed away, I know she would have gotten a hufe kick out of it.
@@MalawisLilleKanalFun fact, American cheese _is_ cheese, as long as you buy the right stuff. But that can be tough, because Kraft was able to illegally sell "not cheese" as American cheese for years without being caught.
I once got a complaint from a customer stating "The soup was too soggy." Edit: Thanks for the 8k likes. Here's a treat: The soup was vegetable soup that was served at a fast-food diner.
@@Konpekikaminari that's the same type of idiots who vote for bernie sanders and hillary Clinton. You know, the people who never do a job competently a day of their life. When/if they have one.
I can't even lie. I been Kiki before. Some days you just on autopilot. EDIT: Some of y'all should just be ashamed. Maybe instead of seeing a RU-vid comment as a place for you to vomit hateful diatribe towards the thing you blame for all your woe's, you should just keep scrolling and ignore it.
I had a woman ask me if the eggs were “Gluten free”. I said “Well, we get our eggs from free range chickens and sometimes they wander into the wheat fields. You may want to order something else just to be on the safe side.” 🤣
That's hilarious! Always love hearing the weird orders. My personal favorite was when the person would order a specific burger, then they would 86 everything until it was a Cheese burger.... I would tell the waiter or waitress, "You know we have an "All American burger" which is the cheese burger with bacon.... you could have just 86'ed the bacon.... "Oh, well, they said they wanted the mushroom burger but they didn't want mushrooms, nor did they want the special sauce, nor did they want the provolone cheese... but they did want cheddar cheese and lettuce, tomato, and onions...." "So the All american burger with no bacon?" Yea... that one.... okay.... thank you!
I like how the second chef accentuates the T at the end of his sentence, I like to think it is because he’s trying very hard to stay calm because she’s doing everything he doesn’t want her to do.
If this was an actual kitchen, that lady standing still for 5 seconds deciding whether she wants to leave the plate or not would have had the nicest of chefs shouting at her.
I actually gave this to my boss when she was getting ready for a presentation on problem solving. We answer phones at the library and get calls about literally anything. Sometimes we hear a question and we just become the 1st chef, until we realize what they’re ACTUALLY asking and become chef 2.
girl like her actually exists and i worked in sushi restaurant for 7 years and i too had orders like salmon sashimi without salmon or prawn tempura without prawn
When I was a sous chef I or any of the other cooks never talk softer then a mild shout. I'm usually a really quiet guy but being in a restaurant kitchen just makes you the most abrasive and loud person ever. No one was every really that aggressive verbally other then when you mess up badly and got chewed out. High speed/stress environments does it to everyone hahahah
I once worked for a restaurant called Tapshack We had a 17$ 11 inch hotdog called The Shackdog Just mustard, ketchup and relish....nothing else to it The owners wanted it on the menu, not us managers and chefs We thought it wouldn't sell.....it became our best selling item I remember a table of the most plastic surgery/instagram fake models you can think of requested we "split into 4" one single order of The Shackdog.....and I thought it was for kids And those barbie dolls ate their small portions with a fork and knife I drank 16 beers that day
Funny thing is, if the chefs got creative, they can easily make "eggless omelette". The ordering costumer was actually Gordon Ramsey, he's just tested them and they failed. ☹️
Hell both chef are tremendously good nature. I would be pissed off. In the middle of service and got seriously stupid question, take blank plate without hesitation and tell her nicely for alternatives...nothing but mad respect with two gentlemen
I’m intolerant to egg protein and for the longest time my goal was to figure out how to make it manageable enough to one day be able to eat an omelette again. So this hits me on a spiritual level 😛
Someone asked me for cornbread without corn once. I asked multiple times to be sure. I have no idea what that is (if it even exists at all) but we were really busy and I didn't want the kitchen staff thinking I was dumb so I just brought the guy a plain piece of sandwich bread. Like wonderbread type stuff. He looked at it, shrugged and said "yeah that works" and ate it in two bites. Paid for his food and left. This interaction haunts me every time I see a piece of cornbread.
Why do I relate with kiki in panicky situations like these?... Edit: oof- all these people calling me dumb in the comments probably never heard of this English word called "Joke" :P
Perfect depiction of: Rookie Guy who worked couple of years n suffers every day from idiots Guy who worked for a decade and doesn't give a shit anymore but is well experienced to find a solution
I've been 12+ years in the food industry and I give up. 2020 is my last year in a kitchen. People never pays attention to their orders or what you say. I asume they function in a semi-conscious state, they save their consciousness for their own money-making endeavours but they ruin mine by doing so and I really dont have the pattience. Worst thing is when they are saying BS and they are and remain convinced that you are the one saying nonesense. I blame the fucking city, it drains our brains. It's too hostile, hysterical, they are surviving WE ARE, it's not their fault. But then again, I don't have the pattience or the passion for this.
Lol. It happens a lot of time. More than you think. For example: I want a pasta order without pasta. Well, I can't do that now can I? So we just told the staff to ask the guest when she meant pasta, does she meant gluten free? We only have one pasta. So we do not serve any other. Needless to say the customer only ordered salad afterwards.
I aspire to be the second guy at work. Where I understand the team is under a lot of pressure, but I still have enough patience and compassion for the less experienced folks on the team. I want to be that guy 🙏🏼💕
@@spencer8388 “Chef, we’re out of bread”. *points to bags on shelf* “Those are cold” Me: “then put them in the warmer” “But the the Barista isn’t here” Me: “if you need the bread so badly, put it in yourself”
Although I never worked in a restaurant, I worked at a movie theater and I have heard a lot of similar demands about the food, partcularly the popcorn. Several people come up and said they want fresh popcorn instead of the popcorn that's already popped. It takes about 15-20 minutes to make fresh popcorn and no one at concession have time to make a fresh batch, especially on a busy day. Also, they asked for popcorn with no butter.
@@10klikeanonimbalikwxc14 the definition of steak : "high-quality beef taken from the hindquarters of the animal, typically cut into thick slices that are cooked by grilling or frying."
Indeed. No one is denying that. But since the waiter/waitresses are the faces out in the dining halls the chefs HOPE that their waiters/waitresses atleast knows something about food, common sense often goes a long way ^^
