My partner called in a dinner order to our favorite local Vietnamese restaurant. Instead of using the number beside the menu items she tried to pronounce the words (poorly, I might add). Well, it must have frustrated the older Vietnamese lady/chef who took the order because when she went in to pick it up, in broken English the lady said, “Oh, you are the one who called in the order. Don’t talk to me. Only give me the number. You cannot pronounce right.”
