thats a coincidence - i had that in the czech republic! We arrived really late at a hotel, kitchen was already closed and the cook was prepping to go home, they opened up the kitchen for us and went out of their way to cook us a nice meal, really great service.

I must say though (although ive never been to the US) that the overall service here is pretty shitty. Especially here in holland on a terrace when the weathers good - it has taken too many times too long for waiters to come and take orders, or ask for another order when youve finished drinks. That's probably the most annoying thing, you gotta wave and shout like a mad man if you wanna order something or they just ignore you all night.
