Man, fuck that place, they bring out a single breadstick at a time after the first small ass-basket.

Grate that entire block, and then go get another one.
Wait, wait. I'm worried what you just heard was, "Give me a lot of Parmesan cheese." What I said was, "Give me all the Parmesan cheese you have."
I've often dreamed of opening a restaurant just to indulge people's worst impulses: Huge burritos filled with nothing but sour cream and guacamole, sub sandwiches filled with triple-toppings and cheese without the customer even having to ask, steaming hot cups of milk and sugar without any bitter, nasty coffee -- and of course, punch bowls full of nothing but shredded Parmesan cheese and a spoon.

OK, but what about the opposite, like a shot of coldbrew coffee, served almost frozen, with 300 mg of powdered caffeine?
When you open up, can I come?
Also will there be a soft serve station?
Funny how yall seem to like it shredded, I prefer half-transparent thin slices on a fat-fat piece of bread.
Waiter: ...... sir? .... this is my third block of cheese? ... (keeps grinding more cheese)
I've actually asked and they'll do exactly that. It's apparently policy for them not to ask and to only stop when you tell them. Even if they have those prefilled, hand-crank shredders they use now, they'll just calmly set it down and pickup another, then go back to shredding.
I've been so tempted ever since, every time I'm dragged back there by family/friends/etc. Just to see the looks on their faces.
Just like harvesting gold flakes outside gold shops in NYC, you can find Parmesan within the tile separations on the floor of the Olive garden. Just remember to bring your tools and you'll be fine.
Usually, it goes 2 to 3 seconds on the parm. It's already swimming in butter.
