My host walked in off the street (first timers here) and was directed to a table by staff after informing them there would be a good 8 to 10 people revolving in and out for most of the day. Decor is spartan, loaves in cages hanging off the wall (cool), bakery in the back, big glass display chock-a-block with food, fairly busy. Table Service is slooowwwww.
After a good twenty minutes, I walk to the counter to order. Let's start with Coffees (good), Specialty Bread (good), Avocado Bruschetta (very good), OJ's (it's O.J.), all good thus far. After a period of not being attended to, nor being able to grab a waiter’s attention, I walk to the coffee bar, it's unattended, I grab a carafe of water and a clean glass, which apparently caused a stir, as the poor tattooed waiter-fellow copped a spray in a certain Southeastern European language that I have a handle on. Hey, still all good. Long...busy...day, right? The aforementioned spray-er, who turns out to be the owner, is casually complaining about customers, to other customers, in front of other customers...wait a minute; staff are frowning ,i.e. look miserable (except the long black haired girl who was smiling all the way), more complaints about customers wafting by, hello... oh don't worry, back to the counter to grab a cake, ahh yes, the Hospitality-Equivalent of the Butterfly Effect. Boss not happy. Staff NOT happy.
Having a good ten years’ experience in the industry, I get it. So, what the heck, I take the initiative to make someone’s day; I approach the owner and say..
"Your coffee and cakes are lovely thank you"
response
"you take up my best table, for five hours.."
response
"Oh..that's where your staff put us, they were told we would be here for most of the day"
response
"You take up my best real estate, it's my best table, and you could have picked any table in the f@#king house"
reponse
Hvala puno
So Ned, 9 individuals are now in the throes of the Disgusted-Customer equivalent of the Butterfly Effect. How dare you speak to me in that way! The others thoughts, specifically? Well, Toorak road is very long, plenty of other former Aircraft Engineers turned cook, to be sure…
