thing to name because absent the acknowledgement that what you do matters, it's impossible to bring your most fully realized self to the job, especially on the hard days.
And I talk about in restaurants, we have the opportunity to help people celebrate, but that night showed me how we also have the ability to give them the grace to forget, to put the world on pause, if only for a few hours.
And
how through hospitality, and this is true not just in restaurants, but across industries, we can create our own little magical worlds in a world that needs more magic.
And that night was one of the first times I experienced that.
Yeah, that...
I mean, there's these little moments, right?
And by the way, that is likely also true in a fancy restaurant.
Probably someone's not bringing you a fresh napkin at a Chick-fil-A.
But I think what you're alluding to is this idea that hospitality doesn't exist at a certain price point.
I've experienced remarkable hospitality.
On a Southwest Airlines flight, I've experienced it at a UPS store.
All it requires is making the choice to be a bit more thoughtful.
And that's an opportunity that every one of us has.
Yeah.
So what you're referencing is years after I started at Eleven Madison Park, I began there as an employee, then I was able to buy the restaurant.
And when I got there, it was a middling brasserie in New York City.
The food was good, but it wasn't great.
The service was friendly, but not very precise.
But gosh, our dining room, it was one of the most beautiful in the world.
