I was once a catering assistant (I assisted the chef by doing all the cooking while he made pretty shapes out of carrots and took all the credit) and I'm sorry but I must disagree.. I've had many an egg sent back because the customer did give a fuck....   One ordered a runny egg. We made him a 2.30min egg and he still said it was too hard. We tried 2.00 mins... still too hard. Eventually, we got so sick of him we gave him a 1.00min egg and he was satisfied. When he said runny, he meant runny WHITE as well!!
