8. Which one of our menu items is your favorite?
Why the Interviewer Asks This Question
This question is another way of understanding how much you know about the company and a frequent customer. An employee that is also a fan of the company and knowledgeable about the menu will be more vested than an applicant that does not know the brand.

What You Should Say
Your answer is an opportunity to show how often you solicit their business and why you choose to eat/ drink there. Be specific about why you like it so much. Describe it in a way that is as if you were selling it to a guest.

Answer Example
"My favorite item is the southwest nacho platter with all toppings. I enjoy spicy food and am amazed that the jalapeno cheddar cheese melts on every chip. I asked Barry, the bartender, how the cook makes it because it's rare to find a nacho platter with melted cheese on the bottom layer of chips."
