When you're eating at a restaurant, do you clean your plate? Do you leave a bite of food behind? Are you afraid you're being judged for how much you did or didn't eat or that you'll upset the chef? Here's who's actually paying attention.

, which means they did like it. But if they don’t want it boxed up, that must mean they didn’t like it and they’re going to complain. Or maybe they did like it, but just don’t want to carry it home. A busser sees a cleaned plate and knows instantly how easy it will be to stack other dirty dishes on top of it.

As a young, naive waiter in the 1900s, I used to tell customers who had cleaned their plate, “Wow, I don’t even need to send this one to.” I thought I was being funny, but it’s mortifying now to think how many people had to hear that. Did they think I was truly impressed or did they know I was just trying to be likable to increase my tip? Worse, I hope none of them were embarrassed by my calling it to attention.
