I would send it back. That's disgusting. It should be sent back. It should be taken off the bill. It should be made right.
I think the highest level Italian food in New York beats the highest level in Italy. All day. Wow.
That's what happens. Thoughts on that? I don't think that's totally inaccurate. I think New York is the greatest food city in the world. And at the highest level, it is often better than the best in that country because it has to be. Wait, why does it have to be? To survive. Yeah. Because there's so much competition. Yeah, you're in New York.
If you're going to have the best Indian restaurant in New York, it better be one of the best restaurants in the world. Jersey kind of beats out.
You're working overtime. You're working overtime.
I don't need your takeout dollars.
Yeah, that's right. We kept the lights on with that one.
Dude, how have you accomplished that? It's so refreshing. Lots of black people at Carbone. That's not a celebrity. Yeah. It's not my fault you're not famous. Step it up.
You start taking things off the table. So slowly, one item at a time, you start taking things off the table.
So the first thing is you start taking things off the table. You've dropped the bill, right? Yeah. That's the first move. Drop the bill. If the bill's on the table and they haven't paid it yet, then you're going to slowly start taking things off the table until they realize, potentially, subliminally, oh, we probably should go. They're removing things. They may not.
The next round would be to offer them an after-dinner drink somewhere else in the restaurant, at the bar, another location. So that's the emergency. Can I buy you guys a drink at the bar? I need you off this table.
That's class. I'm going to pay you to leave. Yeah. Yeah. Because you're guessing, right? You're guessing the amount of time people are going to stay and you built this book off of that. Yeah. So if they're staying far too long, then it's going to start screwing up the next round.
Your chances are going to go through the roof.
Yeah, I can't. Even if that table's available, it's not really. Because it's 7. It's about to get sat. Yeah. But you could potentially get in and get out.
And the restaurant just won a whole nother seat. That's free money.
I've seen some- Well, I think it's actually part of our reservation protocol. You make a reservation, the email confirmation probably says at some of the restaurants that children under a certain age-
so there's a lot with like shorts and sandals like that there's yeah some restaurants just won't have baby chairs that's a great way of doing it i mean if you're like a brunch restaurant then that's obviously a kid-friendly environment yeah you're going for like a really nice dinner probably at the place for an infant how do you talk to someone that shows up in sandals
That's why we built it into—that's why we have, like, a backup and says, hey, listen, it's actually on your reservation. It says, you know, like, proper attire.
Can I call out somebody that refuses to wear pants? Yes. noriega nori wear shorts everywhere fucking refuses to put pants on i don't have the old pants go grab me the the drink champs uh heavyweight championship belt that's out there refuses to wear pants that's like not to the restaurant in life because he's on the run eating you can't be noriega you can't be
I mean, listen, it was revenue for us. It was good revenue for us. But for the city, it had to go. It had to go. Why? Because there was no rules around it. These restaurants don't really have extra money to do it, right? But they need to capitalize on it. So they're building up these shanty towns in front of their restaurants. It's a horrendous look for the city. Thank you, Ricky.
