Customers Have To Eat Food With Their Hands At Chilis After Not Being Given Silverware
It turns out that not having silverware ready for new guests is a problem many of us didn't know existed.
We're here to share another viral TikTok that garnered so much attention that we just had to mention it in today's article, especially after seeing the numerous comments and responses it received. If you've never seen this video, you're in for a treat when you find out what happened.
Before we dive into this, we want to clarify that the video features the girls at Chilis. While you might initially think this was a terrible situation for them, and it was, it turns out that it's not that uncommon. So, without further ado, let's discuss this viral TikTok video.
The TikToker's name is Kate, and she came to TikTok because her server did not provide her with silverware for her dish. The server's response was that she didn't know where it was because they were running low.
If you want to see this video and find out what people had to say, stay tuned as we show the original TikTok and the responses she received from other servers. With that being said, let's go ahead and dive into this.
Here's the original TikTok made by Kate herself explaining the situation and the responses she got from the server.
The video shows her, accompanied by a text overlay that says, “When you ask your waiter for silverware and they respond with ‘uh, I’m not sure where it is; we’re running low,’ and then walk off.”
She then continues with, “It’s okay; we will just [dig] in with our fingers – nothing can stop us.”
After seeing some of the comments, it turns out that this isn't as uncommon as many other people might think it is.
@kateaylmThen people continued commenting about how this is common, and many times they just try to get the silverware from wherever they can.
@kateaylmPeople then came to the comments to discuss how they usually solve this issue.
@kateaylm
Most of them are saying that plastic silverware is usually what they decide to give customers if they don't have any actual silverware ready.
@kateaylm
I can bet that this does happen because I think I accidentally throw away silverware in my own home too, so it definitely happens at a place of business.
@kateaylm
It seems that this is just not as uncommon as many people might think it is. However, I don't know if that makes us feel better about the situation or not.
@kateaylm
After watching the video and reading the comments, it is clear that Kate wasn't exactly upset about it, and many people commented sharing that this happens in a lot of cases. However, it seems that the server could have done a lot more to provide them with what they needed, such as offering them plastic silverware to eat with.
Regardless, they probably shouldn't have been eating with just their hands, but we're glad they weren't mad about it.
