FullaBella's Journal, 01 February 2020

Do I understand this correctly? It IS acceptable to lick the plate clean as long as you keep your elbows off the table? Asking for a friend.

Tried to log it all. I don't know why. Habit.

Everything was so delicious. A small blurb about the restaurant follows.


With only 7-tables in a modern romantic, fine dining setting, Gorji Restaurant has an upscale menu and unique wine selections. Chef Gorji, the back-to-back Texas Steak Cookoff Champion prepares New Mediterranean Cuisine, seafood and championship steak. The emphasis is on food, flavors and an enjoyable dining experience. There are no televisions. The table is yours, there is no rushing you to seat others. The space is small and can not accommodate young children.

Only No-Tipping Restaurant in Dallas, TX Gorji is the first and only NO-TIPPING fine dining restaurant in TX. The price on the menu is what you pay plus tax—you do not add tip on top of it. The no-tipping policy reduces high pressure sales tactics and equalizes pay between the front and back of the house, providing a livable, steady income for staff.

I can tell there is love in this food! Glad you enjoyed it. As you may know, no-tipping is the norm in Europe; the idea of having to pay the waiter's compensation through the tip I decided to give makes me feel uncomfortable 🤷🏼‍♀️😄

Yes, plate-licking is encouraged ... almost required!

Love the idea, more restaurants should adopt a no tip policy. Your meal looks so beautifully crafted. Did you lick the plate?

Love your description and the pictures look so good. All wait staff should get a decent wage. The waitresses around here get $3.00 an hour base pay. If your restaurant hits a slow time, you lose.

You have to do it in another room. In our house, it's the pantry.

Great pics...except do they heat the salt and pepper shakers with that candle?

Aha! So it was one of those high end restaurants.....where you speak through your nose and keep your jaw still...sort of like President Clinton's press secretary......I get it. Well, I bet the salt is the same heated or chilled....

Lick the plate when no one’s watching. Pay a friend to create a diversion if that’s what it takes. 😉

Ha - sorry I missed the fun (comments) - I've been conducting my own version of 'exercise' aka 'Bella's Clean 'til you Fail' workout. Four hours of intense everything. Even vacuumed the dog.

I could copy paste from google thesaurus to tell you how delicious it was in many different ways but let me just break it down in the most redneck way I know how: it was the best thing I've licked in a long time. The bread & dipping oils were 'okay' as well as the mixed greens & strawberries. But the roasted veggies were wonderful and that sauce with the turkey breast & gnocchi - yeah, best in a while.
