Have you ever tried saying the actual dish name and not the number when ordering off a menu at a Mexican restaurant? Some of the server's reactions are priceless. At one particular joint that I frequent, I'll use this method purposefully just to get that blank, deer-in-headlights stare. The other day I said "chicken fajitas, please" and I might as well have said "cup of hot fat". They sure know their numbered dishes but if you veer off the chosen path, it's like driving a car into a tree. No other type of restaurant uses this system. Needless to say, I'm having a random thought day due to lack of sleep.
