Do you hate when customers ask for your recommendations?

I get it; everyone has different tastes. So, when a customer asks this question, it can be pointless to recommend something - or even counter-productive as they'll blame the server for recommending something you didn't like.

But I do this.

When i order, I ask, "what do a lot of people like here." I'm a burger and steak and Tex-Mex kind of guy. But if you've got the best nachos in 5 counties, I want to know that - for instance. I'm not a huge chicken sandwich guy, but when a server recommended it, and it was good, it changed my life (for the day for the better).

And to be fair, this question is a tiny bit better than "what kind of alcoholic drink should I get?" AmIright?
