What people say

"We ordered crepes, chocolate mousse, crème brulee and french apple pie. Apple pie was mediocre, chocolate mousse and crème brulee were extraordinarily delicious. Now coming to the service, our waiter was really rude. We sat down and tried to order, as the waiter insulted us for not greeting him first. He said quote on quote, I’m not your dog try saying “Hello” first. We weren’t aware that we had to have small talk in order place an order first. Until now I thought these such events as myths."
