Food: Do our restaurants need more rules? Mary Keltner sent a link to a New York Times story about a somewhat worrisome trend in New York Restaurants. It's the New York Way. But not so much, as far as we know, the Columbia way. Not until back in the 1950s, when the waitress at the G & M Grill took off her apron and threw it in Grover Gilpin's face, and said the immortal Adair County words of resignation, "I don't have to take this s_ _ _. I quit!" for telling her that if a customer wanted tomato ketchup on apple pie, the customer could have tomato ketchup on his pie, did local restauranteurship lose some prestige, and with it the authority to make people enjoy great food the way it was meant to be, whether they like it or not? Jethro Davidson Harper at the old Circle R gained a measure of respect by occasionally ordering disagreeable customers to leave his restaurant, to take their business elsewhere, but that was usually for something other than the way they ordered their meals. But for the most part, the hospitable nature of Adair County business owners has always been that the customer is always right. It's quite a read, well worth some Sunday time: Have It Your Way? Purist Chefs Won't Have It This story was posted on 2011-03-06 04:14:26
