Is it wrong to ask for A-1 steak sauce at a place called Ouyang House?

Wen wanted to go there for Mother's day, tonight, instead of tomorrow. Some guy asked the waitress for A-1. It's a Chinese buffet and sushi bar.

BTW, Soy sauce sends my blood pressure through the roof but Wen consumes it in high dosages. Does it bother you?

Since you are paying for your food, it is never wrong to ask for your food to be prepared the way you want it or to ask for the condiments that you want. However, since it's a Chinese buffet and sushi bar (seeing that sushi is Japanese) I would wonder about the authenticity of their menu. Also the Chinese are not noted for their steaks.

Don't like soy sauce either.......but my wife baptizes(full immersion ) hers in it!

This is kind of a pet peeve of mine. I am a food peasant. If I buy a steak, even at a ritzy, snobby place, and I want to put A-1, or even Heinz Ketchup on it, it is none of the snooty waiter's business... he didn't pay for it, and he isn't eating it!

If you like A-1 on your meat, ask for it.

As for Soy Sauce -- called "shoyu" in Hawaii -- the reason it raises your BP is because it is basically a bottle of flavored liquid salt; one tablespoon of soy sauce has an average of 1300 mg of sodium! (The ideal goal for sodium in your diet is 2,400 milligrams per day, and that is usually naturally occurring in processed foods... and people who tend toward high BP shouldn't even approach that amount!)

You just THINK I do. It runs right through sushi. More is on the plate than I consume. I just like my white sushi rice to be stained brown.
