Tomfooleries Restaurant faced a backlash after one of its servers deliberately denied a customer the right to make an order. The server told her to pay for her order before he would serve her.

"I honestly feel like I was discriminated against and racially profiled," said Xzaviera Vaqua, told the junk food media.

The co-owner of Tomfooleries of Kansas City said that the server named Preston was fired out the cannon.

Vaqua told the server that she doesn't feel comfortable handing over her credit card as she impatiently taps the top of a dining table with her fingernails.

According to Vaqua's Facebook page, a server informed her that she was unsure of the restaurant policy concerning upfront payments.



According to Vaqua, the waitress said she needed to ask her manager. Vaqua began recording on her cell phone as soon as the manager approached her table.

"It immediately went wrong," she said of the encounter.
