      There’s a thing called metaphor. A hyperbolic one in this case.

      I know that’s not how restaurants work.

      And no, it’s not like being asked about the specials, as they don’t cook it and serve it without asking first.

      They bring out the hot fresh steaming crypto shit sandwich to you whether you want it or not, and then go “oh, but you don’t have to have it, if you don’t want”

          I once got given a small thing of cold soup before ordering, for free*. It was disgusting.

          • the restaurant was not cheap so i’m sure it’s priced in with other stuff.

          Some bread is also quite often given for free at the start.
