"How's everything tastin' for ya?" makes me cringe, every time I hear it from a server. Maybe I first heard it at a Waffle House in North Texas, or was it at a Golden Corral in Red Bluff, California?
But "tastin' for ya" must be have East Texas origins, because practically every waiter or waitress who has held a menu here in the Brazos Valley uses that foul expression.
Whenever you hear that question, you are supposed to answer, "Great!" If you don't, you will not get any more iced tea refills.

And what's up with waitrons asking "Have you been here before?" as if ordering food from a chain restuarant will be something other than predictable bad?
And, actually, I don't wanna know yer name either.
If it's a cute server, sometimes I don't mind if he says, "I'll be taking care of you tonight."
