Gay Couple Kicked Out of Restaurant for PDAWhat Would You DoWWYD

Now it's time to bring our "gay couple" into the restaurant one last time. They haven't shown much affection at all. But already this table is captivated. They're even face timing.

Giving the old thumbs down. And when our couple kisses, they brake out in laughter. Tracy has had it with our gay couple "Okay, okay you guys, enough!" But now watch these two college dude to her left, what would they do? "This is too much, we're all trying to  eat here and you're" "Serioursly?" Not a big deal, but from that other table, Tracy gets a thumbs up. Reactions are spilt down the middle "You know what I think you guys should leave, I'm not the one who bothering anybody" "Are you serious?" "See?" "They're making out!" "But, they're gay" "Are you gay?" "Are you gay?" This guys have reached their limit, and now they head off to find their server "Is there a problem?"

We gonna have ask you to leave just because of people religious beliefs." "We have to leave?"
"Yes" "Whatever, let's just go. Let's go" He's visibly shaken..And upset Meanwhile Tracy just keep pushing "You understand why I had them kicked out, right?"

You have tears in your eyes" "I'm sorry, I'm still trying to calm down" "This means that much to you?" "Yes, sir".
I hate seeing people that are treated differently for" "No good reason" "I mean you can't go around and try to change everyone cause they aren't like you not like you But, on the other side of the room, Ramona Hazelle, has totally different interpretation on homosexuality "And to those who say that's very intolerant of you. What would you say?".

Free WordPress Plugin - Make A Restaurant Menu

Hey y'all, welcome to another WordPress
Wednesday. My name is Kori Ashton and today you're gonna look at a new plugin
provided by our friends over at MotoPress I have done a few before on their page builder plugin that's extraordinary This is a new free option that they're
providing for the WordPress world A free restaurant menu plugin. So, what
I've done is gone ahead and added it to a staging environment. I've just downloaded
it.

Downloaded it just like this. Of course, it's gonna be a zipped file.
Go to your plugins and click "Add New" and that's where it has an
option for you to upload a plugin, right? Click here and click "Upload Plugin".
Come over here "Browse", find that zipped file and then, you just drop it in there
and it's install it. Of course, you want to activate it, right? Once it's active
you will then have access, right here. "Restaurant Menu".

You'll then have
access to this are over here. Now, just full disclosure, I haven't spent
time researching this. What I just shared with you
that I've done is all that I have done.
They do have some pretty great
documentation. I just briefly looked
through to get an idea of how to do this tutorial for you.

But, I really wanted to
give you a very honest review of my experience and kind of let y'all see the
experience of setting this menu plugin up for the very first time What does
that look like? Plugin it into an existed
website. So, let's do it. Let's
go ahead and come over here to "Menu" and I'm gonna add a "Category". And we're just gonna go ahead and call it
"Breakfast".

And, I guess we can go ahead and add in a
thumbnail image. That'd be pretty cool. Add new menu category there. And, it's already added.

I'm gonna add in
"Starters" for appetizers, right? So, let's "Add Menu" category there and
you can see that it's added over here. So, let's add the new menu item.
Click "Add New" and let's say this is one of my
favorites. We'll say "Fried Pickles". And all the details here.

Seems pretty easy. Let's add it to
"Starters". Sounds pretty simple. Wow, you can even add ingredients over
here.

You can get pretty fancy with everything You can put in a price. Let's do that and
say "5.99". Look at this, you guys, it even has nutritional facts you can add
in there. That's pretty great.

Goodness. "Portion Size", we can say this
will be for four people and it's probably crazy full of carbs. Let's say 300 carbs.
Who knows! I have no idea. I'd like to be healthier than that.

For now, that's all I'm
gonna do. I'm gonna click "Publish" I wonder if we can throw in a picture in
there, as well. I bet we could. I bet we would use the feature.

Look at
this, you could even have a full image gallery. That's pretty cool. Add
in all sorts of stuff there. Alright, so, we can just adding menu
items.

Let's add another one just to be sure to have two things going on in here.
See how simple it is so far. Let's add something to our "Breakfast"
and we'll say "Chicken and Waffles". Can you tell I'm southern, or what? Whoops, spell it correctly would be
better, right? Here you go. Yummy.

And let's go ahead and add it to our
breakfast. And we're gonna go ahead and put in the
price, as well. We'll say "$7.99". And we'll say that it's amazing.

Not
even add carbs. We don't want to think about that right now. So, let's go ahead
and publish. Ok, so what I've done right now, very
quickly in just a three minute time.

I've already installed it.
Added two menu items. Added details. Of course if you
already had this somewhere Maybe in a Word document you could just be copying and pasting all
this information in these spots. Then, if we want to add it to an actual page,
let's see what that looks like.

I'm gonna go to pages and say "Add New". We're gonna create a new page
called "Menu. And now, we have this little icon right
here. "Insert Restaurant Menu Short Code" I'm gonna click there and see what the
options are.

"Show Categories" "Show Menu Items". That's kind of cool. So, I'm just gonna
say "Show Menu Items" and just for the sake of figuring out what all this is,
let's go ahead and say a "List". We're gonna go ahead and check both
categories that we're gonna be adding in there.

Do we want one column or four?
My goodness, they give you so many cool options. Show attributes right away, show
the featured image. I would assume that's what we would want to do here. Show excerpt, show price, show tag, show
ingredients.

Goodness. Link the item. That's pretty cool. And let's just say insert short code.

So,
it's gonna drop in this cool code, right here. That is the thing that supposed to render
the menu to appear on our website. So, behind the scenes back here in this
view you will always have the short code present. In order to see the changes,
you'd have to click "Preview Changes" Open it up on the front side of our
website.

See what it looks like. Check this out, you guys. Here's our
"Breakfast" category "Chicken and Waffles" and it is linked.
Here's our "Starter" category.
"Fried Pickles" and again it's linked. If I click on "Fried Pickles" it will take
me to an individual page that would have details listed out here
that you can see.

That's pretty groovy cool. That's not bad
all. Let's see what else we can do with it. Back here to the menu item.
Let's go to menu items here and see if we can go ahead and get rid of the comments;
because, of course we wouldn't want any comments to happen on our menu items.

So,
we'd update that. And, come here to "Click Edit", as well
and we would take off the comments capability; because, we certainly don't
want that. Let's see if we can add a picture just
really quickly to see what that would look like inside of our featured image. "Chicken and Waffles".

I bet the cat
would like to eat chicken and waffles. Let's see "Update". And let's go back here to our menu page
I'm gonna click "Refresh". And there's a picture right next to it.
Very nice.

And the picture is linked, as well. So,
all of this links to our "Chicken and Waffles" page. Let's click on it. "Chicken and Waffles"
appears in this particular menu back there as my featured image and you could have a
full detail here and a full price.

If you didn't want them linked and you
just wanted everything listed out here with the full description, then that would
be the options as you edited the short code. So, going back here to
"All Pages" Let's go back here for a minute to our
menu and what we do is just take out the short
code we that we have in there for now Completely remove that and then rearrange
our options, right? So, we would say "Show Categories" instead. Let's do it in
a grid and let's choose both and do we want to show the categories description?
The icon? The featured image? Show the name. How many columns do you
want them in? Insert.

So, you have all sorts of different ways you can set up the
structure of how your menu would appear on this page. I'm gonna click "Refresh"
and we'll see it in maybe two columns. Check that out, you guys. Here's our
Breakfast and our Starters.

Click "Breakfast" then it will go in and
show us our full breakfast menu. And of course if we didn't want it linked
anywhere, that would just be the option we would choose "Not Linked". You guys, that isn't really bad for a free
option for setting up a menu on your website. If you're running a
little restaurant or cafe, this could be a great option for you.

I hope that this helps you. If you want
take a look at some of the other options that MotoPress offers. Be sure to go over
to their website, getmotopress.Com I'll put that link for you in the
description box below. They have a really outstanding page builder, as well,
that I've shared with you guys before.

So, you can check that out and they've
got a very simple slider that's pretty cool, as well. Hope you're having a great day. I will
catch you next WordPress Wednesday where I am going to talk to you about 8
things to not be doing on your website.

Fast Food Restaurants That Straight Up Cheat Customers

When you go to a fast food joint, you're not
asking for much: a fast, filling meal at a decent price, and that's about it. But sometimes you don't even get that. So the next time you hit up your local drive-thru
for dinner, take a close look at your receipt. Here's a look at some times that fast food
restaurants cheated customers.

Burger King's Croissan'wich Burger King ended 2017 by settling a class
action lawsuit claiming Maryland customers had been cheated for almost two years. The lawsuit was filed by Koleta Anderson of
Maryland, who claimed customers who used a Buy One, Get One coupon for BK's Croissan'wich
were paying an inflated price. Anderson says when she used the coupon, she
was charged $3.19 For a single sandwich. Without the coupon, she was charged $2.16
For the same sandwich.

And this wasn't a one time thing: she claimed
that Burger King was intentionally hiking prices for people with the coupon, as she
and her lawyer were similarly overcharged at several other locations BK denied there was any funny business going
on...But they still settled the matter and agreed to hand out some $2 and $5 gift cards. That was nice of them. McDonald's Extra Value Meals The whole point of ordering an Extra Value
Meal is that it's convenient and it's cheaper than ordering the components individually. But a lawsuit filed in Illinois in 2016 alleged
that's not always the case.

According to the Cook County Record, James
Gertie filed the complaint when he realized he was paying more for his Extra Value Meal
than the components would cost individually. The meal was $5.90, He said, while ordering
two cheeseburgers, a medium fries, and a medium soft drink came to $5.49. Gertie told the Daily Herald it wasn't the
money that prompted the lawsuit. "It's because of the principle, that's the
whole point of a 'value' meal.

I believe in the principle of true advertising. If a company advertises something to be a
value, then it should be." As of early 2018, the case still hadn't reached
a verdict. Chipotle's calories Chipotle's big bragging point is fresh ingredients,
as well as their claim that they're a healthier dining choice than their competitors. But a class action lawsuit filed in California
challenges those claims, alleging that Chipotle was tricking customers with incomplete information.

The confusion came when diners looked at a
menu board that showed a picture of the chorizo burrito, a summary of ingredients, and a note
that claimed simply, "300 calories." Fortune reported that Chipotle's nutrition
calculator actually gives you a total of 930 calories for just a chorizo burrito with white
rice and black beans. Turns out, the 300 calories on the menu was
just for the chorizo alone, with no other ingredients or fillings added. And that's a problem for Chipotle, as California
law requires restaurants to make complete nutritional information available to customers. So far, no resolution has been reached, though
Chipotle has dropped chorizos in favor of queso.

Dunkin' Donuts' imposter ingredients Everybody loves Dunkin Donuts, right? "Yeah I come to Dunkin everyday. Grab a 'crolla, have an extra large, three
Parliaments, take a big dump - that's kinda the routine." Well, okay, not everyone. In fact, in 2017, the Dunks was hit with three
different lawsuits alleging bogus replacement ingredients. In April, a Massachusetts customer got a settlement
out of a lawsuit filed against the coffee and donut chain claiming customers at a group
of 20 locations were being served margarine or butter substitute, even if they asked for
butter.

Then, in June, a lawsuit in New York accused
the company of using ground beef instead of steak in their steak-and-egg sandwiches. And in August, another class action lawsuit
was filed claiming products labeled as "blueberry" didn't contain any actual blueberries, and
instead used sugary "flavored crystals." "Time to make the donuts!" Sure, it might be time to make the donuts. The question is: make them with what? Hmm. "The best part of my day is when I'm at Dunkin.

You think that's sad?" "Yes, very." "Real customers know, the holidays run on
Dunkin." Jimmy Johns' sprout fiasco In 2014, a disgruntled customer sued Jimmy
Johns because she didn't get alfalfa sprouts  even though they were clearly listed on
the menu. It turns out there was a pretty good reason:
in 2012, there was an E. Coli outbreak traced to sprouts served at Jimmy Johns, among other
places. Jimmy Johns responded by removing the item
entirely from their meals, but didn't alter their menus to reflect the change.

Jimmy Johns denied any wrongdoing in the case
of the missing alfalfa sprouts, but still settled and agreed to give unhappy customers
a voucher for $1.40 That could be redeemed for any side item or soft drink but not
a side of sprouts. McDonald's fry cheat If you think you've been shortchanged on your
McDonald's French fry order, there might be a good reason for that, according to McDonald's
employees who posted on Reddit. "They say they would told to pinch the base
of the cardboard carton so it would take fewer fries to make it look full." Other employees confirmed the practice  and
that customers occasionally called them out on it  but a McDonald's representative
told the Huffington Post no such policy exists. We'll let our stomachs be the judge of that.

Subway's great "footlong" debate Finally, there's the infamous case of the
Subway Footlong. In 2013, a customer at a Subway in Australia
posted a photo of his footlong sub next to a tape measure that showed it was only 11
inches long. The internet was not about to stand for that
sort of thing, and a group filed a class action lawsuit against Subway. It turned out that the case of the disappearing
inch was a result of how the bread baked, and since all loaves start from the same amount
of dough, you're guaranteed to get a particular amount of bread.

In spite of that, the case was settled for
$525,000 and that should have ended it. One sub-loving plaintiff refused to settle,
however, and kept the case going. It wasn't until August 2017 that the entire
case was thrown out because...The judged deemed it to be really stupid. So, while you might not be getting exactly
12 inches of bread, the courts say you're still getting your money's worth.

Just think about that before you stick your
footlong in your mouth. Thanks for watching! Click the Mashed icon to subscribe to our

Dinner at Grandma's The Restaurant Where Nonnas Rule

(Italian opera music) - [Narrator] We all crave our
grandmother's cooking, right? Well, what if there were a
place that you could go anytime and get that home-cooked meal
from anywhere in the world? That place exists in Staten Island, just behind that scaffolding
right over there. (Dramatic operatic music) Meet Jo. He's Italian by way of Brooklyn. - My name is Jody Scaravella,
and I own Enoteca Maria.

We don't employ chefs;
we employ grandmothers. - [Narrator] When Joe opened
the restaurant in 2006, he noticed something. - Every culture was
coming to the restaurant to celebrate these Italian grandmothers, so I thought to myself,
How nice would it be if we celebrated everybody's culture? - [Narrator] And so, Nonnas
of the World was born. (Grandmas talking) - [Jody] There are probably somewhere between 30 and 40 grandmothers
from different countries.

- My name is Habiba. I'm from Algeria. - My name is Lubof, and I
am from Moscow, Russia. - I come from Sri Lanka.

- Bulgaria. - Dublin, Ireland. - From Armenia. - Buenos Aires, Argentina.

- [Narrator] Each night, there
are two grandmothers cooking. One is always Italian, the
other, from somewhere else. - [Jody] When they're
in the kitchen cooking, it's a completely different energy. It's their day to shine;
it's their day to show what their cultural cuisine is all about.

You know, it sounds kind of corny, but they do cook with love. - [Narrator] And that
feeling for Jo is about more than the restaurant. - When I opened the Enoteca,
I was really grief-stricken. My mom and my sister had passed.

(Grandmother chatters) - It was comforting to
have these grandmothers in the kitchen cooking and, you know,
they would pinch my cheek and say, "You want to try this?" And at that point, I realized
that what we were doing was much bigger than I
thought it was going to be. (Glasses clinking) When you walk through the
restaurant, if you listen, every table that you pass by, they're talking about their mothers or they're talking about
their grandmothers. It kind of evokes a trip down memory lane. (Upbeat music) (background chatter) (chime).

Most Filipino meals recipes may also be played with leftover meats, vegetables, or per opportunity sauces. And with out concerns since you'd handiest be adding loads of added substances, you would be saving funds as neatly.

Make a bit added on the out of date day's meal so that you could be have a specific factor ready-made for busy days. Take have in mind dishes that yield usable leftovers, resembling roast pink meat and chook, soups and stews, and heavy salads.

Get pre-lessen gadgets

Use a bit help where you could. See in case you could get your vegetables washed and lessen on the retailer or your meats chopped to serving sizes. Having your substances organized in expand can save you a remarkable 10 minutes of decreasing time. You can uncover pre-lessen produce at most groceries, nonetheless they mostly are likely to be overpriced and of low truly suitable quality. If you have got time, get your produce total and lessen them all in one sitting over the weekend.

Stock up on the most chiefly used substances resembling garlic and onions. You can peel and chop up to two weeks' value of these spices (they will begin to brown in case you appear after them longer) and retailer them to your fridge. Keep the garlic in a apparent jar and combine with vegetable oil. When a recipe wants it, you could with out concerns scoop out the amount you sequence as a substitute of constructing ready a basic new batch.

Use kitchen shortcuts

You'll be amazed at how little distinctions can add up and lessen your cooking time in zero.five. Save steps when you could.

Think of brief dishes you could do within these little 'time pockets.'

Cook What it Takes to Make It in a Michelin-Starred Restaurant

You know what it takes to be a cook in L.A.? Self-sacrifice. I left Virginia to come to L.A. Because theres a certain energy that translates to the food scene here  that I haven't found anywhere else. I work at Mlisse, which is a 2 Michelin star French fine dining restaurant in Santa Monica, California, and its one of the best restaurants in L.A.

Working on the line in the kitchen is like composing a symphony. It really is. Its almost like each dish is like one is the violins, one is the cello, one is the keyboard, and another is the drums. My first job in the kitchen was when I was
sixteen.

I was a dishwasher. And that was before I even knew I wanted to cook. I was just a kid looking for a job. After I started working there and seeing something as simple as salad being plated,  it kind of drew me in.

I said this is pretty amazing. As sous-chef at Mlisse, I have to go to the farmer's market first thing in the morning, pick up produce, go back to the restaurant, disperse it to the staff, and then we start
prepping. We have to get fish deboned, tomatoes concassd, sauces simmering. All this has to ready before service at 6 o'clock.

Fire menu prawns, menu truffle pasta, two menu seasonal, followed by menu duck - medium rare... Working in the kitchen is one of the hardest jobs Ive had in my life. You're under this constant stress.  And on top of that, youre working long hours, youre on your feet all day, and its just completely physically and mentally straining.

And most people cant
handle it. But I love it. See how beautiful that looks? And we sear it off nicely. It also protects halibut being so delicate.

It helps protect the flesh. Chef Josiah Citrin is one of the most renowned and respected chefs in L.A. And it was only natural that I would want to come and work for him. Hes almost like the epitome of an old school French chef relocated in the U.S.

He has that passion, that drive, and intensity that you come to expect from great chefs like himself. One day I was in the kitchen and I was scrambling eggs and this memory kicked back to me from my grandmother and how she taught me how to properly scramble eggs when I was a little kid. And she was explaining how you use a spoon to stir it and cook it really gently so that the texture comes out nice. And its actually a classical French way of cooking and I have a southern grandmother.

It was kind of weird. And, it was like little moments like that I think back that kind of directed me to cooking that I didn't really realize until now. If you want to be a chef, you cant wait around for someone to hand it to you. You almost have to take it.

Hosting pop-up dinners has given me and my friend Gary a chance to not only showcase our skills, but do what we were trained to do: be a chef. For the oyster dish, I was thinking right, we have those nice clear bowls. Well put the garnish in the middle and then pour the gazpacho so it comes like two thirds of the way up. I brought a fish tank bubbler.

And instead of making foam with the frother, lets do bubbles. And well just drop right that on top. I just want to thank everyone for coming
out tonight. As you know, were just cooks when it boils down to it.

Thats our life. This is what we do. This is what we love to do on our free time.  We just spent our last few off days preparing this for you and we had a lot of fun doing it.

So, cheers to the night. I always have this sense of satisfaction and
almost comfort in knowing that something I served pleased someone else.  And I think thats what most cooks thrive on..
