I have (had the experience and have) known up-scale restaurants to snub single people in their restaurants. Sometimes these poor souls will get poor service or be overlooked as if they were lowlifes. Ziggyâs lucky the waiter even noticed him.
When overseas we would go to the âoff the beaten pathâ places for food/drink â gererally better service/food/drink for a fraction the price of the âfavoritesâ or hotel/cruise ship recommend placesâŠ
Iâm not the least bit shy about asking what something is on the menu or asking how to pronounce it. Good grief, if I am thinking of paying for it and eating it, why not?

I remember a Korean-American comic named Henry Cho doing that line about his dad in a French restaurant.

Ziggy asks to have a âquickieâ? That probably explains why he calls the other fellow, âhis good man.â

Where Iâm from, asking for a âquickieâ means something entirely different.

That joke has been broadly (yes, itâs a pun) applied to (at least) two Presidents⊠Clinton and Trump.

Meals in French restaurants are usually tiny, but theyâre almost never âquick.â Les Maisons de Presque Rien Ă Manger Pour Tout Votre Argent.
