Bliss by Harry Bliss for February 29, 2024

The wife slips the server couple extra bucks for having to deal with her husband.

“Highly recommend” is the same as “specials”, and are usually more expensive than menu items.

Okay. The chef recommends …

I got the “I highly recommend the shrimp bisque” at a very expensive, classy restaurant in Connecticut. I was deathly ill for three days. Those words still give me a chills.

Thought balloon: I highly recommend you dine at another establishment.

Well at least they still have a waiter and not a Touch Screen ….

Having been a back of the house individual, “highly recommend” and “specials” are kitchen speak for “what’s about to expire and we need to sell it before having to waste it out.”

Thinking: “I highly recommend a gag for your mouth and let the wife do the ordering!”

Or “Oh, that’s my favorite” when you order an item.

He highly recommends you all go to a different restaurant. There’s a McDonald’s a few miles away.

Whatever he orders now is highly likely to have spit in it.

The specials are usually shown in the menu, too.

Highly recommended and specials usually mean, “push it, we made to much and it ain’t selling.”

My first thought is the poor guy is having a meltdown and you all seem to think it’s his fault?

I highly recommend you don’t eat the soup when it comes with suspicious bubbles.

Never insult the people who HANDLE YOUR FOOD. You think it makes you look like a big man?

“I recommend you eat across the street and leave me a big tip.”
