When conducting business in NYC I had lunch with two of my peers at a popular Deli. The menu listed beef vegetable soup. I ask the waitress if the soup was homemade. She said yes and I ordered the soup with a sandwich and fries. When the waitress left one of my peers chided me for asking if the soup was homemade stating "of course she going to tell you its homemade". whereupon I replied but then I asked and if it comes back obviously not, I can remind her I asked.
Its clear at HH if you don't ask you are going to get items that a at the higher price. A caring waitress would have ask what size. However, as for soup there is no difference between a cup and a bowl of soup in most restaurants I know I have tested it There are so many ways eateries can alter perceptions. Same issue applies with salads as it looks like there is more if served on a plate rather than a bowl
