If I’m at a restaurant and everything they have is good, sometimes I’ll tell the wait person to surprise me. Salad dressing? Don’t care, I like em all. Ice cream? Yes please. I’m not a picky eater so I’m not often disappointed by what I get. I take it back, I did order coffee like that one other time and I got a hazelnut latte. Man, that’s something lame that I would normally order on my own. Ain’t no surprise in that. I had one other notable time of ordering like that. We were at a fancy Italian restaurant and I told dude to surprise me. He looked at me and said I’m not playing guessing games, you will tell me what you want to eat. I did.
I do realize when I order like this that I’m leaving the choice up to someone else. I wouldn’t expect anyone to be a mind reader so if I get something shitty, well that’s my own damn fault. It’s coffee, how shitty can it be. Foofy, yes. Over priced, absolutely. Shitty, not usually. Maybe I just want something different that I don’t even know I’m missing out on yet.
