As a waiter, I can tell you any conversation you have at a table can be overheard even if I'm chatting to another table half way across the room, I'm always listening for comments about the food/drink, and if I'm out of earshot, I'm reading body language, judging eating speed, drink levels. It's not like I'm paying attention, just looking for key pieces of information to help connect with guests/make a memorable impression.

@James Jarrett being black must mean constantly coming up for excuses for ones shortcomings and blame skin color for ones own faults. The only real racists left in quantity are blacks.

[@TehBudWhisperer]

@James Jarrett also, can you read bro? I didn't say you had shortcomings because you were black tard. Everybody of all races have shortcomings it's called being human regardless of color. I said that black people today tend to blame white people for their shortcomings and shit that goes wrong in their life. Just look at the black lives matter protests a few years ago or simlliar today. It's all hate and misinformation.

The most amazing and memorable dining experience I have ever had was in Hong Kong at "Pierre's Private Room" at Mandarin Oriental. I am American, but I mostly live in China, as I operate a couple businesses in mainland China. I was being entertained by a wealthy client who obviously had more money in his personal bank account than I could ever imagine. In all, he spent nearly HK $75,000 (Approx $9,560.00 USD) for a 3-hour dining experience for My husband and me along with him and his wife........I could have died. haha. However, it was a flawlessly superb meal, wonderful wine, great service and I won't soon forget it. I couldn't ever imagine something like that happening with clients outside of Asia, however in China...This can be quite common when working on business dealings with the ultra-rich.

Sounds fun! Would love to experience it in the future! 😄

[@rush1er]

Was in the biz over 25 yrs... served at some pretty high end stuffy venues where I had to write a thankyou card to each guest at the end of the night. I know a fairamont of food, libations, the finicky guest, the divorcee millionaire looking for blow, pretentious presentations and $100 per ounce Cognacs... and this was pretty cool to hearabout.

[@indigobeauty1]

I wonder if some guest tip zero at these type of restaurants? 🤔

[@jordanguillory7180]

That last lil monologue he said really made me want to go but I'm poor and in Texas and have no one to go with

[@DanyCesc83]

Wonderful experience, great service and the food is amazing! I will definitely visit again.

I really love the concept of this restaurant......4:17 he dropped one of the wisest quotes I have heard since childhood, can't possibly agree more with him.

[@stirrcrazyn1611]

This us amazing, I'll say I've never cared for restaurants at all, but if I had to go somewhere, these people seem to demystify it.

[@jp4431]

$300 even for my middle class salary is a reasonable special experience (eg. proposal, wedding anniversary, etc). Even places like French Laundry cost that much.

[@eastcoastguy7914]

1:08 you know you have a salaried person’s vacation when you have never heard of these places

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 my last vaca was four years ago, so I get you

[@brittsivate4041]

This is really sweet. It feels like they really care about you.

[@tobiasmacivey3525]

The street hotdog part sounded like the setup for an SNL sketch...

[@thecitizenjoan]

I would love to eat here one day with someone special

[@geert574]

Better keep stalking NBA players then 🤣

[@thecitizenjoan]

Geert Matthys more into surfers or but I’d take an NBA player too 😂 on another note I have my own money and could afford to pay for the both of us and but it’s more fun with someone you love vs being by yourself which is fun too but not as special

[@harveyholmes9533]

If I could only do this level of dining once in my life I probably would go for a more traditional experience, but if I did it often I’d definitely want to make this a place I went. Luckily I can’t afford it at all so don’t have to worry about it

[@phaedrussmith1949]

I’m sure Frazier and Niles Crane got a big laugh out of the hot dog course!

[@lexismith8206]

I don't know how the food tastes, but they would make great Instagram photos! Everything looks so perfect 💋

[@dannyb20vtec28]

Having the job title “dream weaver” just sounds bad ass ! Lol

[@roomforthefiiixins2491]

Damn...so there are actually places better than Denny's

[@winewoman224]

Coming from a five star background as a chef and floor captain, I would call this place obsequious. Service is always a ghost, not a focus, in fine dining. You never, ever, listen to a clients conversation during service!

[@EllTheBob]

Most of the time, expensive restraints seem about some odd niche that isn’t worth it, but this actually seems really good

[@MrBabyBitch666]

molecular gastronomy is probably the most perverted thing anyone has ever done with food.

I would rather just pay for the food, the experience is not necessary

[@xgaming6609]

Depends on the type of the experience I must say. If you went to a place that got live kitchens, you will enjoy the experience

[@ganna7063]

Oh my, I want to go here for my anniversary when I grow up. It's really appealing.

The concept of those dream weavers remind me of when kids on those huge house make over shows would say that they kind of like Star Wars, and then they over compensate and make everything in their room about Star Wars.

[@ThelouwseFD]

I think that I would totally hate it but I'm really happy that this kind of things exist !
