Embarrassing, Restaurants and Miscellaneous: Food flight

Food flight

By ashley_skillz06 - 24/01/2010 05:21 - France

Today, I went to a Japanese restaurant. While the chef was throwing food at us, I was getting ready for my turn. He tossed a piece of broccoli at me, I leaned back to catch it, completely falling off my chair. I knocked everything over and had the packed restaurant laughing at me. FML

Today, I went to a Japanese restaurant, where the chefs cook the food right in front of you. Our chef tossed an egg in the air, but sadly didn't catch it. Don't worry though, my hair got it instead. FML

Today, I went into a restaurant with my family. I slipped off my chair, pulling the tablecloth with all the food and drinks on it with me onto the floor. FML

Choked

Today, I went out to eat with friends. My crush was also at the restaurant with his friends. He smiled at me as I took a mouthful of food, and I choked. The waitress had to perform the Heimlich maneuver on me, while he and his friends fell off their chairs laughing. FML

The Fall

Today, as a restaurant hostess, I fell into the fountain at work while carrying a high chair in front of several large parties, who all promptly laughed at me. We were so busy, I had to stay and finish my shift soaking wet. FML

Today, I was eager to learn how to use chopsticks, as I was in a nice Chinese restaurant and had ordered noodles. As I was visibly struggling to eat, the server brought me a fork. When I reached for it, I flicked a noodle into a lady's soup at the next table. FML

Child labor

Today, I was dining out with friends. I saw a mom instructing her young child to go to empty tables and take whatever cash had been left. I discreetly told the manager. He confronted the woman and pointed right at me. As she was being thrown out, she tossed a very heavy mug at my head. It hit me. FML

Today, I was in a restaurant with my fiancée for dinner. I commented that she had some food around her mouth. She responded with a lecture, then by throwing her hot bowl of noodles at me, before stomping out the restaurant. FML

Today, at lunch I was running to my group's table with my friend. She accidentally tripped me, and I slid across the café floor face first on my belly. The whole cafeteria was silent. They then broke out in hysterics when the head janitor ran up to me and yelled 'SAFE!' like a baseball umpire. FML

Today, I was at a local chinese restaurant with two of my friends. We were laughing hysterically when my friend tells me to stop making her laugh because she was going to puke, naturally I kept egging it on. She puked all over the table and I was laughing so hard that I peed my pants. FML

Today, I brought my boyfriend over to meet my parents. They prepared dinner for us - mushroom pasta. I have always hated mushrooms, so I spent the entire dinner trying not to gag. Unfortunately, I did gag and my mom got up and smacked me so hard I fell out of my chair. FML

Aaaaaaaahhahaha that brings back memories of family dinners at Hibachi! Something hilarious has happened each and every time. Last time, a shrimp fell down my mom's shirt. The first time we went, my brother learned the hard way that fire can burn your eyebrows. xD

._. I love these kinds of restuarants like I love breathing, but that just sounds dangerous. What, did your brother stick his face right into the fire or something?

Yeah, pretty much. He was fairly young the first time we went, so he was really curious about the big shiny cooking surface. I guess he thought it was a mirror? He barely moved his face away in time when the chef lit it up.

Well, hibachi/teppanyaki like this isn't *really* traditional...I work at a traditional restaurant and we hate it when people ask us for hibachi-style meals - we don't serve it there and a lot of people can't seem to accept that it's not the only style of Japanese food besides sushi... Don't get me wrong, it's good, and it's fun, but it's not *traditional*. :) Closest thing you can get is nabemono, where we make food at the table for the customers, but it's more like hot pot where you put everything in a pan or pot and cook it, sans entertainment of course. It's still delicious though!

Stunts are for the professionals to perform, OP. Seeing as they're not allowed to throw food directly at you with the exception of certain circumstances (or they'll face legal consequences), you either asked for it or are full of bull. Try again.
