    I liked it better when he was talking about being a waiter...nowadays, his blog is pretty boring and/or self-important. Meh.

    Nothing too impressive here.

    This man is a boring person, a terrible writer and seems to think that the world owes him something.

    While the insight he brings to the behind-the-scenes of a restaurant is interesting, he is a horrible writer. Please stop encouraging him, people.

    I love it. Start in April 2004 and work your way forward.

    I like the somewhat arrogant authors style at wait rant so he gets the thumbs up although admittedly I never vist the blog unless I stumble across it during a marathon stumble session and generally have nothing much to say about the thing. but... It's Saturday night and Café Machiavelli is bursting at the seams. Impatient customers waiting to be seated are laying siege to the hostess stand. I had to comment on this ... I have never ever figured out the willingness of patrons to stand around waiting for a table at a variety of places. I have no desire to argue with the hostess and wait for ages for a seat.. .. The must be seen at place is usually the last place I was ever willing to try to get a table at. If I'm paying for the privilege of having you cook my meal and serve it to me I also don't want to listen to hundreds of other diners packed in and babbling over their food. I want a table wihtin a reasonable period of time.. and if someone is meeting me later handle it. I am not dumb enough to make loud complaints about a place losing my business.. I know they don't care.. in their fantasy the lines will be there forever.. but even if they aren't ... they are now and everyone has to live with it or move on. Personally... it's a very very very rare cook who could create a meal worth waiting for and I'd much rather spend my time eating that meal and moving on to more fun activities than standing around with the foodies waiting for a table so I could say I at at so and so's.
