On Saturday I had dinner with a friend from college and her husband, neither of whom I had seen since their wedding in the fall of 2002. We had reservations at a chi-chi restaurant in Hyde Park, but upon arrival we were informed that due to an unfortunate mix-up and a rare overbooking, the restaurant wasn't able to seat us at a table. The apologetic Maitre-d offered to seat the three of us at the counter, and as a salve to this indignity said he would comp a 5-course meal for each of us, including three glasses of wine (Champagne, Pinot Noir, and Chianti).
First I have to wait for 5 minutes at Starbucks in Waco when I order "bold" coffee, and now I have to sit at a counter. What the hell is wrong with service in Texas?
