I recently had a very annoying experience at Migros Restaurant St.Gallen Neumarkt.
I chose the fitness plate: self-service salad from the buffet with grilled chicken breast. After I had received the pieces of grilled chicken breast on my salad plate, the new restaurant manager (there are always changes of management there) came rushing up to me and told me that I wasn't allowed to take so much salad! I found this very impertinent and remembered that I had already been unqualifiedly accosted by an older cook some time ago ("but it's heavy"). Apparently this is the reward for eating there regularly. I am of the opinion that you should stand by your offers or otherwise not make them. Apart from the fact that the cost of a little more salad for hungry salad lovers is negligible and constitutes a petty discussion, it seemed wiser to me to satisfy the paying customer than to throw away the leftover salad in the evening (it was already 1.15 pm). The restaurant manager denied that salad was being thrown away. He showed me slices of fried courgette that would be served again tomorrow (this made my stomach turn and I remembered that another customer had recently urged the sour, inedible pieces of bell pepper next to it). In addition, the remaining salad would not be thrown away, but taken away by the cleaning staff and the restaurant's own staff in the evening. From this point of view, the "food envy" of individual people naturally appears in a completely different light. In any case, it's great that the paying customers are the center of attention! I wonder if an M is better?
