Ever wonder why a basket of warm bread appears before you even order? It’s not just a kind gesture—there’s strategy behind it.
1. A Warm Welcome
Bread is comforting and familiar. Serving it right away sets a friendly, generous tone and makes you feel like a guest, not just a customer.

2. It Fills the Wait
Waiting for your meal can be frustrating. Bread keeps hunger (and complaints) at bay while the kitchen works.
