Guess Who Came to Dinner?

He who's name may not be mentioned.

He who makes quiver every chef, owner, server, etc., in this industry.

He who waves his fickle wand-pen with some caprice.

He was distinguished looking.

He ordered well. Little gems, cherry tomato & bacon salad, Fresh Garbanzo Hummus, House Pita. A maker's mark manhattan, which he received in a vintage glass. Then, the halibut with corn-risotto cake, and the mixed pig platter.
They had 2 desserts--the peach galette with honey mint yogurt ice cream--(which I think is perfect), and the apricot-strawberry shortcake.

We are still quivering. We hope he gives us a rave. We need the 3 little stars.

He ran into some friends on the way out. Hugged one. We all smiled as we followed him out the door, with our collective longing for the big 3.

Craziest thing of all, I should feel this determined to please each and every guest that chooses to dine in our humble bar + kitchen.

Ya know what, I'm bringing that up tomorrow, in our pre-shift.
