Out for dinner with a friend tonight and the bread came with a little dish of pesto, and another of butter. We dipped the bread in pesto, but didn’t use it all. I also used a small amount of butter, less than 10% of the contents of the dish, I’d guess.
I commented that it was a shame to see it go to waste as, while the dishes were small, there was two much for two people. My friend said that the restaurant would just top them up with fresh pesto or butter, and use for another customer. She used to work in various restaurants during university, and said this was common.
If you work/worked in a restaurant, can you please tell me this isn’t true? I can’t stomach the idea of someone biting bread, dipping it in pesto, only for me to eat the same pesto later.
My friend is 100% wrong, isn’t she?
