Restaurants That Refuse To Use Plates

When we go out to eat we expect our food to be served on a plate or at least in a plastic basket covered with wax paper. If it's a sandwich or a burger, I'll settle for it being wrapped up in some paper. Sometimes restaurants try to get fancy and serve their meals on cutting boards or sometimes they're just trying to be pretentious. (Keep in mind it can be dangerous to have your food served on wood as it can harbor bacteria if not sealed and cleaned properly.)



Here are some places that go over the top with how they serve their food.

Did you run out of plates? Don't worry, there is some leftover stationary in the back, just serve it on cardstock.

Taquitos...in a cigar box...the cigar place next door just went out of business.

Here's that side of sauce you asked for...in a light bulb.

Oh, we also serve our smoothies in a light bulb. It's how we recycle our old bulbs.

We let our bacon drip dry on this clothesline.

Yes, I'd love a burnt log between my food and my plate...

Here's your burger on a tree stump.

I love bits of wood in my nachos!

Why? Why would you serve anything in a shoe let alone Crocs?

Here are your chili fries. Yes, that's a shovel.

Coffee can cake...on wood.

It's literally served in a kitchen sink.

Sure, just serve my drink in your old rusted soup can.

We used to be a candy store now we use the scoops to serve our food. 

Hey boss, the recycling was never picked up...That's ok just serve the food on the old newspapers. 

Oh, we had some left over tile from the remodel.

A f**king wheel barrel?
