#36: Out-of-Date Food
When you work at a posh hotel you can expect to come across posh clientele and posh requests you might not understand. That’s what happened to this 17-year old guy when he worked a part-time job at a hotel during high school. One time during breakfast, one gentleman asked if they had any crème fraîche.
Crème fraîche is a type of cream cheese this young man clearly wasn’t familiar with. He heard the words “creme” and “fresh” (or something that sounded close enough) and informed the gentleman that the hotel doesn’t serve “out of date food”, meaning everything in the breakfast spread is fresh. We wonder how this man reacted. We can only assume that’s an interaction the two of them would never forget.
