Apparently more than an hour if you're at the Cheesecake Factory and the dining room is half full.
We ordered two omelets, and after about 50 minutes we asked the server if he might check on the order. He returned to say "there was a problem" getting the omelets out.
When they did arrive, we asked what the problem had been. "The kitchen was backed up," he said.
Never mind we saw more complicated orders served to diners who arrived after we did. Never mind that the nice couple seated next to us received their Chicken Madeira IN 12 MINUTES!
We still enjoyed the omelets. We still purchased two pieces of cheesecake to take home. And we still tipped the server 10 percent -- an insult, yes, but generous under the circumstances.
Off the top of my head, I can think of three or four better ways the server could have handled this. Can you?
