and bringing your own is probably a good idea during these times.

Why? They’re packaged in paper. Now we have to worry about items packaged in paper being contaminated? FFS

Saw this Ol boy in sushi Yama the other night.... couldn’t figure out what he had in his back pocket until he sat down. Reminded me of mini pool stick case.... kind of like when you see a couple baws roll up to the Egan Bar with their cases hangin off their shoulder back in the day.

Ever since the rona I usually bring my own glass and a set of my own silverware. You can't be too safe, it's scary out there

I usually whittle a pair from the bamboo growing at their front door before going in.

shite no man. You’d get your arse kicked at Nakazawa if you pulled something like that.

Telling an Asian restaurant that you think your personal utensils are better than theirs is incredibly insulting. Many owners would consider suicide.

Can we buy Pawl Allen an egg roll stand and visit with our own chopsticks?

I have my own chopsticks. Got them at the Japan section of Epcot at Disney World. I am having a hard time determining if this is pretentious or trashy.

I bought mine because I don’t always have the disposable ones at home and I wanted some for ramen and stuff. That’s not pretentious.

I have, but that’s because I prefer Korean chopsticks to Japanese or Chinese chopsticks. I can’t stand the disposable ones.

Why? Even if you are a masked covidian, chopsticks are usually pre-wrapped. If you are worried about the utensils, then you should definitely be worried about the food being prepared and sent to you.

Especially the cold, uncooked fish, veggies and wrappers.

Do you bring your own fork and knife to a regular restaurant?
