This guy’s ‘last minute takeaway order’ just went wildly viral and you don’t need to have worked in a kitchen to appreciate this (but it’ll help)

Here’s something that will be instantly relatable to anyone who’s ever worked in a kitchen (or indeed ever gone into a restaurant or takeaway right before closing – just that you’ll be looking at it through the opposite end of the telescope).

It’s a video that has just gone wildly viral on Twitter.

This is hilarious; this pizza place closes in two minutes, and then this guy walks in.

Bravo, people!

I think everyone needs to work in a kitchen at least once in their lives. If it closes in 30 mins, don’t go.

I worked in restaurants for over 40 years and nothing pissed me off more than someone walking in right at closing time.

And despite the fact it’s very much not all that it appears, the love for it was still extra large.

Clearly a skit but ANYONE that has worked in the restaurant industry has lived this….

Doesn’t matter if it’s fake, I still watched it four times because this genuine laughter makes me so happy.

I know it’s staged but it’s SO well played out and ANYONE who has been in food service knows it’s like a punch to the gut! This had me howling! pic.twitter.com/MyqHShe2ft
