LA Times food columnist David Shaw shares some wonderful stories of absurdly rude restaurant patrons. My favorite:
“People steal everything,” [says Chris Schaefer, the proprietor of Zax,] “silverware, salt and pepper shakers, wine coasters, the small flashlights we hand out if you need more light to read the menu — everything. We used to have conical glass vases with tropical fish in them, hanging on the wall in our ladies’ room. Women would flush the fish and the water down the toilet and steal the vases.
