reggae
What does reggae mean?
Ticket shorthand meaning the dish goes out exactly as written — standard build, default sides, no allergy swaps, no 'dressing on the side.' A relief call on a busy line because reggae tickets don't need a second read.
"Two burgers reggae, one Caesar reggae — on the fly!"
Origin
Drift from 'regular' to 'reggae' because line cooks would rather shout a fun word than a boring one — same instinct that gave us 'on the fly' over 'urgent'.
