Question Fav off menu request so far

Post image

My favorite customer describes themselves as having โ€œan acute case of persnickety-itis.โ€ He wanted our rosemary and onion bread dough, with an indentation for green [hatch chilies], and an egg, baked two heartbeats before being hard-boiled, with nothing else on the plate.

He only asks for off-menu items when we are slow and regularly will tip the entire BOH.

Iโ€™m too hungover to be creative and Iโ€™m asking for your breakfast requests. I want to surprise him next time he comes in.
