Joe Morley's-Awkward Jokes Breeding Area?

I was on the receiving end of an awkward joke recently and i now feel deeply for my own tables who have been forced to fake laugh at my own dumb witticisms. the story is as follows:
I was serving a couple of whom i already felt a little nervous around, my anxiety stemming from the over-powering smell emanating from the male side of this duo. He asked what was good, and i said what i always say, recommending the brisket or the sugarback ribs. He proceded to order the ribs. later on in the repartee i asked him how they were--he answered, "so good. for a second i thought i was at joe morley's!" i just sort of looked at him, gave an awkward, appreciatory laugh, and walked away.

Don't worry Brooke, that was just awkward, not Harrison awkward, which is funny, and can beat up every other type of awkward.
