Table these fashion and hygiene taboos —
Dealing with a smelly, unkempt or overexposed server can leave a bad taste in a diner's mouth. Here are six of the worst offenses, some of which are amped up in the summertime swelter.

Flip-flops and sandals —
Open shoes: Just say no to grody toes!

Tank tops —
Exposed underarms are totally the pits when it comes to the people handling your food.

Bandages —
Discretion is the better part of bandaging a cut or sore. Consider a clear option.

Facial piercings —
Not to get all lippy on you, but some diners get unnerved when faced with facial piercings.

Cleavage —
It's a restaurant, not a breastaurant. Consider keeping the girls in check.

Perfume and cologne —
Eau de NO! Ease up on the scents for the sake of your customers (or fellow diners).
