“So I had 100 dollars a week. Pretty much blew it all up in the first couple of weeks and the last couple of weeks, I was flat broke. I had to make some money so worked for a few days,” he added.
Elaborating more about the same, Khan also revealed he used to often have arguments with the chef, “I didn’t get along with the chef too well,” and added that along with waiting tables he used to take customers’ orders from behind the counter. Recounting his experience of working with chefs, the actor said, “I didn’t know how bad a mood these guys get into because they are in a kitchen, they got heat, they got oil and they got smell. They are there for about 8-10 hours and they are in a bad bad mood.”
Fardeen Khan also spoke about his initial days when he wasn’t familiar with the American lingos and sometimes when customers used to say a short form of some toppings, instead of asking he used to write something down. “I used to pretend I understand, write something down and nod. And the chef would come out yelling,” he said.
