My Ordering Tactics Give Me Away

Out for dinner at Green Zebra when I was, say, six weeks pregnant, a dish featuring camembert beignets was tempting me entirely too much. Knowing that the soft-cheese prohibition generally has to do with the fact that such cheeses are often made with unpasteurized milk (thus increasing the risk of listeria) I figured why not just ask the question? After the waitress confirmed that the camembert was, in fact, pasteurized, I happily ordered the beignets and a pink peppercorn thyme soda. At which point Marc observed, "Wow, we pretty much let wait staff know everything, don't we?"
