Go and thank the cook, not the waiter

“Asking to speak to whoever cooked feels like you are about to complain. Watching them realise it is praise is worth the walk to the pass.”

The Recipe

  1. Eat somewhere with an open kitchen, or a cook you can reach.
  2. When you have finished, ask to thank whoever made it.
  3. Tell them the one thing that was good, specifically, and mean it.
