Waiter Misses Calling
John Galloway missed his calling. With his talent, he
should have become a writer.
With his tongue planted firmed in his cheek, his first
book, “Fine Dining Madness” provides those who dine finely with steadfast
rules. Galloway, who gained his experience first-hand as a waiter, informs the
reader his or her worst dreams may all be true. Your steak took a roll on the
floor. The coffee was not decaf. Your table is the worst seat in the house –
and you are sitting there for a reason.
My youngest son aspires to a career in restaurant
management. He interns and works summers in restaurant service. Although my
son’s experiences are not all that different from the author’s, he lacks
Galloway’s strop-honed wit and camera-like attention to detail that makes this
book a great read.
Whether you inhale your meals at the corner greasy spoon or
savior the world’s finest cuisines from five-star rated venues, this book is
worth a gander. Galloway’s rules and realities of fine dining will change the
way you savior the experience.
