Why is the waiter a douche? And I guess I'm full of shite because I love it. I order it at restaurants and I order it from Hudson Valley and cook it at home. Maybe it's an acquired taste but an appreciated one.
I like everything listed in this thread sans the lone Pancho mention.

No the guy was a douche for many reasons, I dont really appreciate waiters that are condescending when explaining a menu.
I feel like when the waiter asks "Do you have any questions", That is likely an appropriate time to ask questions. So when I do ask questions, I dont want to be talked to as if I am being the biggest inconvenience in the world. When I asked him what was foie gras and he responds - "You've never heard of foie gras" and carries on like I am fricking moron, I dont really appreciate it. I feel that me asking a question in itself implies that I dont know what it is. It is one thing to have heard the term, it is a completely different thing to know what the texture and taste is, but I have never had it.
I think that, especially since I am younger, that going out and having a nice meal can be a learning experience and enjoyable. Alot of that hinges on the waiter and his ability to explain dishes without sounding like we are the dumbest person alive.
