How should you handle a request for extra sauce?

• A. Provide extra sauce if available; confirm any upcharges if applicable.
• B. Refuse extra sauce.
• C. Offer a different condiment.
• D. Suggest purchasing sauce separately.

Answer: (A)

Providing extra sauce when requested reflects attentive service and clear pricing. If extra sauce is available, bring it and clearly confirm any upcharge before adding it to the bill. This approach satisfies the guest’s request while keeping them informed, preventing surprises and aligning with standard service expectations. Refusing the request can leave guests dissatisfied, offering a different condiment may not meet their needs, and suggesting they purchase sauce separately adds unnecessary steps and friction.
