*takes a loud shit in your bathroom*

There is no good reason to have more than one type of utensil. A fork is a fork.

>>21490425 (OP)
do waiters need to whip out their tape measurers to tell the difference between "pause" and "excellent"

several parts of this are wrong

I couldn't care less about your decadent bullshit

>>21490710
>decadent bullshit
as opposed to your undignified fast food slop?

>>21490470
Where's the cheese fork

>>21490721
Truly grim that you see those as the only options. That's how big cities are nowadays I guess

>he doesn't have a water knif
You're not barbarians, are you seekay?

>>21490732
who said i thought those were the only options?

>>21490743
You did

>he can't tell at fist glance

>>21490748
what if the diner puts them at a slight misalignment

>>21490746
simply not true. you assumed that.

>>21490743
Literally you

>>21490751
I would never have such an undignified buffoon in my presence.

>>21490756
I see you've never had a job interacting with The Public
(honestly, good for you)

>culinary language
is just plain wrong
(or it's different here in Europe)

in any way
>restaurants won't notice
I asked a lot of fine dining restaurants this (among those 3* or 5 toques ones)
and every time the same answer
>yeah we know what it means
>but no we don't notice / act, because 99% of people don't know and do it by accident

god, fine dining really should gatekeep more
full of normies and nouveau rich fags

>>21490470
that meta is over for over 30y+ now

maybe some ultra trad retards still do that
but modern restaurants will give you the right cutlery for each dish right before or exactly when the course arrives

>>21490591
>There is no good reason to have more than one type of utensil.
of course there is
the size, the material, the sharpness / blade (e.g. serration), the nature of the utensil itself (e.g. a soup spoon needs a different depth than a desert spoon)

>>21490425 (OP)
this is humorous because americans will use cutlery like toddlers regardless of how the table is prepared

>>21490807
Alternatively just pick up the bowl and start drinking the soup as it was intended to be consumed

>>21490847
>Alternatively just pick up the bowl and start drinking
what if the soup is hot?
what if the soup is chunky?
what if the soup has several components that should be mixed on your spoon?

chunky soup is the superior soup anyway
and you can't really drink that directly from the bowl

also many fine dining restaurants have soup courses that are intended to be drunken directly from the bowl today

of course you could also eat literally any dish with a big spoon
if you're slob enough

>>21490591
And what if some dandy insults your woman's honour and you fork him in the eye? It's poor etiquette to continue to eat with said fork, so it is always proper to have at least one extra.

>>21490781
It's a Fremen thing.

>>21490425 (OP)
Different places, different tastes(/costumes)
Never did it like that; never will

>>21490425 (OP)
nobody does this. I've watched at every fancy restaurant I have ever been to. no one does this.
