Description
After 31 years managing restaurants, I finally know which items are worth your money — and which ones you should never touch. 🍽️
Most people walk into a restaurant and order whatever sounds good on the menu. But after three decades on the other side of the counter, I can tell you that some dishes are made with care, fresh every single day — and others have been sitting under a heat lamp since noon. In this video, I’m sharing the 15 things I would always order based on what I saw happen in the kitchen.
This isn’t about fancy restaurants or expensive cuts. It’s about knowing how to eat well anywhere you go, because the difference between a great meal and a disappointing one often comes down to what you pick. 🤌 These are the orders I’d make every time, no hesitation.
