When food bites back
Brunch
|March 07, 2026
Eating out is tricky. Lime wedges can carry pesticide traces. Salads could hide germs. It's better to be fussy than sorry
Over the last few years, I have been fighting a (losing) battle with restaurants across the board.
Every time I order a drink — sparkling water or Coke Zero — I always specify: “Ice but no lemon.” And every single time the drink is brought to my table with a slice of lemon bopping around in it. When I remonstrate, the most common response is: “Oh, I'll just remove the lemon.” When I ask that my drink be replaced, the wait staff looks incredulous; the unspoken criticism being that I am a bit of a madam to make such a fuss about a slice of lemon.
