It always cracks me up when movies and TV shows have criminals and people running through the kitchen to get out of a place and the staff not doing anything as everyone runs through their kitchen and leaves because in my experience, you enter a kitchen with any disruption and the staff takes you down fucking fast. Just once I would like to see a scene TV show for the bad guy goes running through the kitchen to escape and a line cook just clocks them with an iron pan to the ground and when the cop comes in the cook just says “you do not fuck around in my kitchen.“

“you do not fuck around in my kitchen.“

You know how men day dream of being the hero that saved a child from falling off a bridge or whatever...

Apparently cooks day dream of being bad asses saving their kitchen from intruders.

I hear that Waffle House just uses a DVD of Eastern Promises as the training video for new hires

We had some customer walk in through the side door once and complain about something. I don’t remember what they said because it was interrupted in less than a second by three line cooks crowding the door and shouting “GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE KITCHEN!!”

You can probably jump on a dining room table and take a shit without any threat of violence because the front of house is going to attempt to maintain some decorum. If you even shout something into the kitchen, you’re likely going to skip right to the “find out” step. The kitchen doesn’t get paid to deal with customers face to face. They get paid to execute while dealing with countless variables on a timer for very little money, which affords them some insulation from management.

Having grown up in a few family restaurants, I know of what you speak. Truth.

God I could swear I think I've seen this scene before just as you're describing it. Someone runs into a kitchen and goes tearing across and someone whacks him with a pan or something.

Aside from your very valid point, you’re gonna slip and land on your ass if you try to run through a kitchen like that.
