Respect things:

Many a times I am feeling disgusted while taking meals in bangalore hotels. Serving is a passion and ofcourse is an art. You should not force guests/customers to order several dishes for the sake of money. When I was in kakinada, one famous hotel I remember yes, "krishna vilas" famously known as "Subbiah hotel". Forget about taste, the way they ask, the way they serve is commendable. "sir, taste this one, don't try to eat all. just taste." "even if you dislike, just leave it. we dont bother". Ofcourse there is no need to comment on taste. In many bangalore hotels, when I order a side dish they will bring those just before completing my meal. I do not understand the meaning of serving when I encounter these type of situations. Serving papad/omlette while taking curd rice, placing low quality of tissue papers on the table, serving items in the center of palm leaves, moving hear and there without paying attention to customers are quite common in most of the luxury hotels. One more thing, putting finger bowl on the serving plate is horrible. Even though we are not caring about the cleanliness of the lower part of the bowl, we should respect and they should care about it. Ofcourse, people are just eating not tasting the food.
