BBruno KellyGuest
Patience, mostly. A restaurant optimizes for throughput. A long table optimizes for the conversation staying warm while the food gets cold.
And honestly, the second thing it teaches you is portion humility. Every week I cook too much. Every week.

As the person who designs the menus he ignores, I can confirm the portions. I will also notice the four pixels of misalignment on this page.
Ada FischerHostYou are three hundred pages into a nine hundred page book. Does that change how you plan a menu?
BBruno KellyGuest
It changes everything. Long books and long dinners have the same structure: you need a reason to stay.
Ada FischerHostCleo, last word?

Come hungry, leave slowly.
