Do you know how hard it was to not make a joke about squirty cream LOL

[@Bozemanjustin]

I think tipping is better. You get the level of performance that you pay for. Oftentimes on a very busy night in america, it's best to start out by laying a big tip on the table and letting the waiter or waitress know, that is currently your tip, poor service will make money get subtracted from that total

[@Bozemanjustin]

[@marykelley854]

Hey Joel. For the most part if you are at a restaurant like that in America, when ordering you can request your bacon to be cooked extra crispy if you like.

[@the_god_of_food]

That is true

[@steverocksyo]

same with the pancakes, same with the hash browns :)

[@ljspivak9447]

Or if you don't like your bacon all burnt to a crisp, you can order it "soft".

[@auntlynnie]

I always ask for it to be shatteringly crisp.

[@signalfire15]

The service in America would still be very good even without tips. There are many, many industries where employees aren’t paid through tips and the customer service is still top notch. Retail comes to mind. America is just big on customer service in general and the “customer is always right” mentality.

[@margietucker1719]

You are correct, Kat. When I started working at Lowes---part of our training is HOURS of computer training videos--most of them to teach us good customer service. This is HEAVILY emphasized--excellent customer service is extremely important with them...and we have to do refresher courses often on "SMART" customer service. (That's their acronym for it) And the thing is--it actually comes easy because once you engage the customer--you find that most people are open and friendly, and you develop a good rapport.

Hate to say, but not so much anymore, we need to make sure it doesn't go away completely.

Making hash browns stay together is actually quite the art. The most important thing is washing, soaking and squeezing dry the shredded potato to get as much starch off as possible.

Your breakfast looked good. Made me want to make a stop at Denny's!

[@barryfletcher7136]

I worked with a Canadian who lived near the border with the USA. Whenever he and his wife had an important dinner (anniversary, St. Valentines Day, or whatever) they would drive across the border to eat at a restaurant in the USA. Yes, they needed to tip (Canada was definitely more like the UK about tipping at the time) but he could be assured they would get great service and if there were any problems the manager would fix them. Even with tipping, the USA restaurants were usually still less expensive than the equivalents in Canada. You were recently in Canada so should have some perspective on that.

[@msbeaverhausen7226]

Canadians tip for everything, just like the USA. Your friend must have been a little cheap if he only tipped over the ditch.

[@lemonz1769]

Canadian service is at least as good if not better than in the States generally speaking.

[@shirleyk7647]

@@lemonz1769 Things got a lot better in Vancouver with and after Expo 86 as per helpfulness, friendliness etc. Restaurants on both sides of the border around here have really taken a hit with Covid, though. Prices up a lot.

[@annaburch3200]

We LOVE eating at restaurants in the Vancouver area (we're from Seattle). Great food, the service is great (yes, they expect tips) and with our exchange rate, we usually get a pretty good deal, even though it seems more expensive.

[@barryfletcher7136]

@@annaburch3200 My experience with the exchange rate has been that when US$! = CA$1.25 then something which coats $! in the USA costs $1.25 in Canada.

[@jlpack62]

Even though it's a massive chain, going to Denny's give you a taste (pun intended) of America's diner culture. You should always eat breakfast at a local diner when you visit an American city!

[@gawainethefirst]

If you can find one built out of an old silver Pullman rail car, even better.

[@sassygrammy1258]

When in America, chose diners or meat and three restaurants based on recommendations from locals and the number of cars in the parking lot. The last time the hubby and I were in Texas, we asked locals to recommend restaurants and we only ate at those establishments. The locals were spot on. Knowing our Texas friend likes donuts, we wanted to take him a dozen. I asked a local which donuts are the best. I can’t remember the name of the donut shop, but we pick up a dozen and headed to our friend’s house. He was delighted to get the donuts, and he was amazed that we bought the best in Texas.

[@vincegay986]

The quality is much higher at most Mom ‘n’ Pop diners, especially in New Jersey and on Long Island.

[@HankMeyer]

My appreciation for Denny's had declined quite a lot over the years, but watching a couple of Brits enjoy it so much may have restored it.

[@coyotelong4349]

I think Denny’s is superior to IHOP- Their burgers are actually pretty nice

[@bigplanett]

Denny's has really gone downhill in recent years in terms of quality and cleanliness. That's not to say all are bad, but most Denny's I see these days are not good. IHOP is a step up, but they've gone downhill as well. My new go to place is Black Bear Diner.

[@coyotelong4349]

[@bobwallace9814]

Back in the day when the Soviet Union was a thing, they sent their National Hockey team to the US for a tour along with dozens of KGB to make sure they didn't stray. This was a big deal as it was a first. Near the end of their tour the Soviet team and entourage was asked what was their favorite restaurant while in the US. Denny's won by a landslide much to the horror of the US snooty media. Why did they pick Denny's? It was because they could order by using the food pictures in the menu.

[@dennisaston3551]

That's an awesome story, thanks Bob. Personally, as an American in Qatar, shopping by picture is a huge thing. "Hmmmm, that package of soup noodles has a chicken on it, and chilli peppers with flames. Think I'll skip the flaming chilli chicken soup" Luckily Google Translate app will do a translation in real time with the camera so times have changed.

[@MoMoMyPup10]

[@cjhansen6618]

[@shannoncopeland4506]

Joel, when you order bacon anywhere in America, just ask for it to be extra crispy when you order it. That way, they can cook it the way you like it. I am with you on the crispy bacon thing. I can't eat bacon that isn't crispy.

[@loboheeler]

Joel is used to UK bacon which is quite different. Same in Canada, which is an entirely different cut. The crisped fat in US bacon is essential to it's texture.

[@justsandy4381]

Yes, this is a quite normal request.

[@edwardmiessner6502]

Same here the only bacon I can eat that's not extra crispy is Canadian Bacon. Do they have that in Canada? 🤔

[@saraneill135]

We call bacon that we like "air bacon" it's cooked so long, when you bite it, it goes poof evaporate... best burnt bacon ever. I've heard waitresses call it Cremated Bacon.

[@zgdafzgdaf4264]

Dennys all you can eat buffet after a night of drinking…. Also they used to give a free meal on your birthday. Loved this day during my poor college days.

[@michaelb.3982]

If you get $15 am hour in Europe and work a eight hour shift.. you will make $120.. work an eight hour shift in an American resturaunt you will make at least $250.. if it's very busy you will make even more.. The American system is much better for waitresses !

[@fhummil]

The benefit of the tip system is that if it paid in cash, it generally does not get taxed, or reported to the IRS

[@gemoftheocean]

The feds assume you make minimum 8% of tips, and Technically you're supposed to report tips.

[@americathebeautifulforever9746]

[@barryfletcher7136]

I have friends who worked in all sorts of retail and service jobs where they wore name badges, BUT there was a collection of random name badges so the customers would not know their real names. They did have to keep track of the name on the badge they were wearing. Some places also let the employees simply wear badges with a name other than their own but their choice. The fake name thing was more important for female staff.

[@raymonddagostino6118]

[@deanronson6331]

I don't think I've ever encountered a couple of young foreigners that high on American popular culture and food. They look like being in their own Hollywood motion picture and enjoying every detail and every minute of it. Very entertaining. By the way, don't hesitate to ask for a properly carbonated drink if the one served is flat or for anything else that's not up to standard. As long as you ask nicely, you will be accommodated without any problem.

Not sure if you've been to a Waffle House (or if you're still in the Southeast), but Waffle House has an amazing selection of hash browns. I think there are 6 different modifiers for them there. Also, Waffle house is well known for never closing. FEMA (the government agency that helps out during disasters) actually uses the status of Waffle House restaurants as an indicator of how bad the disaster is.

Yeah, guys. Feel free to ask for anything. Stateside, they WORK for tips. If you want more milk / creamers. Tea or soda to go. Ask and you'll probably get it. Ask for take out (to-go) boxes for anything you want to finish later, everyone does it. As for service, at very expensive restaurants, your tip % is higher, therefore your asks / requests can be higher. Don't be embarrassed, the worst thing is they say no.

[@SuperBamamama]

[@cypher515]

So weird of me to say this, but I miss Denny's. I live _in_ Orlando, but as my sister says, we're so spread out that "Orlando, is an hour from Orlando". (Which, if you look at the actual city limits of Orlando, is literally true.) And I live in north Orlando now, and have for years, and almost all the Denny's in town are nowhere near me, except for one that's kind of inconvenient by bus, which is why I only would visit it when my dad visited. I need to spread out a little more. (There IS a place called Nick's Family Diner nearby to my house, I'm annoyed with myself that I haven't gone yet.)

It was fine in a nostalgic guilty pleasure way.

Sweet video. Denny's is middle of the road diner food because its's a chain restaurant. But it's a brick wall in the middle of the road. The service is good. The food is good after being out all night. It get's crowded there, but that's a good thing. Jump off the beaten path and you will find really good stick-to-your-ribs food. Eat your hearts out. Dieting on vacation is like watching a R-rated movie with your hands over your eyes. Oops I forgot. Joel. Just ask them to cook the bacon more or less to your liking. Enjoy.

[@clemdane]

What I found a bit confusing in restaurants in the UK is that there often wasn't a singular person who was assigned to wait on us. It sometimes seemed like we never saw the same person twice. So the usual thing where you're waiting to spot your particular waiter to ask for more tea or the dessert menu or the bill did not apply. You might as well just ask whoever the next person walking past. Which also made it harder to figure out a tip because who knew who it would go to?

[@chrisk5651]

One doesn’t really need to tip in the UK.
