No details, but loved this part:
Do you think people come in with higher expectations?
I wouldn’t say higher, but very different. A year ago I’d come out to the dining room once to say hi to a regular, and now I find myself having to come out five, six times a night. We had a single mom and her son come in about three weeks ago. He was five and celebrating his birthday, and apparently all he wanted for his birthday was to come to my restaurant and meet me. I almost cried. He was so dressed up and so well behaved. He’d made an onion soup for me, and brought it in a Dixie cup. I took him back and showed him the kitchen, and he went, “Which one is the sous chef?”
