Default Re: High-end Dining: Expectations and Reviews

Some thing about good service is that the waiter quickly notice what kind of service you want.

When I'm out with friends of mine that rarely eat at high-end places, the waiter should notice this. And that means mastering the art of giving us great service and reccomend stuff without making the people that visit such a place for the first time feel like idiots. Don't make my mate feel like an idiot because he doesn't want red wine even if it is the obvious choice with that particular course. It's surprising hom many high-end places that fails at this.

This isn't a problem when you're dining with a bunch of likeminded food lovers obviously.
