"The real ball move is not getting up and moving because they're gonna offer that," he says. "If you look you look thirsty as fuck if suddenly they say, Oh, excuse me, sir,. We should move you to the to the finest table in the house." A friend who's obscenely wealthy went for a day club pool thing in Vegas but couldn't find a cabana so bought bottles of alcohol instead.
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.
