If you want to support independent restaurants, this is what you do. You take a low house and spend it all. It's eight different courses of food. What? Who is this person? Where are they? We can't see them. Oh, they're in the pillar table back there. I love this move. No, no, no, 1,000 percent guarantee this works. If you really go big, it'll work. Yes.
Dave talks about getting seated at possibly the worst table he’s ever seen. The discussion turns to the politics of restaurant tables and the best solution for navigating them, including the 'Pretty Woman' move. The discussion then turns to the trend of experiential restaurants with a particular focus on teppanyaki, and other cuisines that might benefit from a similar treatment of food as performance art.
