30 Times Restaurants Served Food On Anything But A Plate
I know I’m not the only one who loses it when food shows up on anything but a plate. The good people of r/WeWantPlates have been cataloging the most ridiculous offenders.
Seriously, burgers on shovels, fries in literal sinks, desserts on clipboards? It’s all laughs… right up until your soup arrives in a flower pot.
1. “Shakshouka in Teflon with metal utensils and a side of sourdough in a cloth pouch”
2. “Service with Sole”
3. “My Ceasar salad on a log….split in twain”
4. “We also want ramekins :/”
5. “Using fish skulls to prop up my food is a new one for me”
“Ngl I actually enjoyed this, but still thought it fit the subreddit. At Mayta in Lima.”
6. “Check out those knife marks. Is that sanitary for next customer?”
7. “Chicken Parm somewhere in NJ”
“As the second generation Italian American, I am very mad at this.”
8. “Wet steak and beef whiskey”
9. “You order popcorn chicken and they think they’re cute”
10. “Nobody wants this”
11. “Coconut shrimp”
12. “A bathtub?”
13. “My shrimp appetizer was delicious, but required some careful excavation.”
“They call this Dynamite Shrimp, and it was amazing!
But trying to get the last of those crispy noodles from the bottom of a martini glass was definitely an adventure.
No regrets tho, I’d order it again!”
14. “My gf asked I show you this cereal bowl that her matcha latte came in”
“She blamed herself for ‘looking like the kind of Brooklyn millennial who would drink this.'”
15. “Please get your scallops out of my drink.”
16. “Excuse me, there’s a cucumber salad in my martini.”
“My cucumber salad— which was delicious. But it was impossible to stir and coat with the dressing. The glass was sticky, but if I didn’t hold onto it, it was going down.
What’s with the martini glasses replacing plates and bowls?? Make it stop.”
17. “There better be honey mustard flowing out the nozzle.”
18. “I ordered bread. I think I got an art exhibit.”
19. “This is a tile.”
20. “I just wanted some Bruschetta and got some wall fixture and a sparkler alongside it”
21. “Salad at a Mexican restaurant”
22. “Meat clothesline again”
23. “Frying pan with mitt, served on a mini wooden pallet”
24. “Everyone else at the table got a plate, I got the whole pan”
25. “I don’t want a hollowed out bamboo stick!!”
26. “A truly ‘grate’ experience”
27. “Bruschettas on rocks they probably brought from the beach across the road. Are the crumbs supposed to just scatter across the table?”
28. “Dessert in a Flower Pot”
29. “Nothing beats a chopping board tzatziki”
30. “Strange way to eat strawberries and cream”
