My wife and I celebrated our 16th anniversary today by going to a local Thai restaurant for lunch. She ordered a wonton soup appetizer and when it arrived it was clearly store-bought shumai dumplings in the soup and not wontons. To me, this was not a big deal. We're out celebrating. For her, it was simply unacceptable. She told the waiter that these were shumai, and not wontons. To which he replied "Thailand calls those wontons. Our chef is from Thailand and that's what these are called there." Ballsy from him - but that infuriated my wife that he would try to pull one over like that. My role was to not escalate the situation - which I'm really good at - and just have our meal - which we did. So we finish up, have our leftovers boxed up, pay the check and then proceed to leave the leftovers on the table.
