Yep, my one grandma would do this, it was so irritating to go anywhere with her.

I’ll never understand why people get huffy when ordering food. If there was ever a time for clear communication, it’s when you want something specific to eat. If the server asks you a clarifying question, you should be happy that they care enough to get it right, not annoyed that they are wasting precious time by not reading your mind.

I’m delighted when my server asks questions. It means they’re engaging their brains. I’ve got an unusual food allergy that’s usually pretty easy to work around in the kitchen. If it’s at a restaurant I’m not a regular at (the unusual allergy makes me pretty memorable so I get to be a regular pretty fast), if they ask me something before I inquire about their process I know I’m somewhere that’ll keep me safe. It’s one of those indicators.
