Gents of the 221 Town head waiter tale and more

A humorous Indiana tale recounts a head waiter famed for his dignity and a faulty misread order with canteloupe versus Rocky Ford cheese. It covers tipping trends, quirky dining room incidents, a fearsome old lady, and a red faced patron demanding fire in a chafing dish. It closes with a sobering Irvington car tale of a man racing to his dying wife and a lighthearted domestic vignette about a chefless breakfast mishap.
