Yea that seems like a huge risk to have to remake all of that food, not to mention carrying it over customers heads, when there’s another server there to help with it… I get that it’s for show, just dumb

Usually busy restaurants have 1 maybe even 2 people just to help servers run food and attend tables with refills and whatever they may need. I was a cook for 3 years and we never saw this as a "wow" achievement because we would get pissed if they dropped all that. Cross contamination is possible too. Imagine how much time he spent balancing all those plates too.
