At Table………
John-Bryan Hopkins
I love eating out. Some restaurants offer things to snack on while waiting to order. I like this part of the meal. It offers a chance to see the quality of the food offered.
Chips and salsa, warm bread and butter,or (here in the South) cornbread…..
I hate a cold, stale bread basket. The bread needs to be warm, at least. I like room-temperature salted butter. No ice-cold butter or rubbery bread for me. Ew.
My favorite set, if offered, is warm sourdough bread and rich, virgin olive oil. I like to add sea salt ,if offered, and cracked pepper. Yum!
Anything to make the meal take longer.
I went somewhere and they offered fried pickles, no batter, like potato chips only …. pickles.
What is your favorite or weirdest offering?
Question of the day:
What do you call this “course” you get upon being seated at a restaurant?
