last the last time i had one of these conversations i you know discovered that i
my tastes and and and the other persons were very different uh
oh well that's good
uh i my my own uh
so where do you like to dine out
um well sort of yuppie places i guess is probably the best way to describe them um places that are comfortable and have sort of unusual different foods
oh i see well i like the atmosphere myself
um where where what do you find particularly good atmospherewise
well i like i like let's see well it depends on the mood i'm in also sometimes i like to go where there's quiet music and there's a piano bar and so that we can visit or there's
um-hum
um-hum
other times when i like when there's real exciting and there's one place here in Dallas where there's a woman on a trapeze and she
she goes back and forth over the bar
well that sounds different i'd seen things like that in movies but it don't recall having ever been to a restaurant ever even close to a restaurant where that was an option
oh well that's that's called Old San Francisco Steak House
hm
and she uh swings back and forth over the bar
it's very interesting
oh
uh the
she tries the ceiling is i don't know how high it is but she touches the ceiling with her toes and then her
yes yes
yeah
that's kind of interesting
that that sure is now can i top that can i even come close
gee
but uh so you like different foods huh
sure enough um
what kind what kind
uh what this week it's been Chinese food five days in a row so
oh gee
um but normally not so not so not so concentrated um
um southwestern cuisine um
you know New York deli kinds of stuff uh you know it covers covers you know quite a range i mean the the only things i find difficulty with is is these these raw fish things
um-hum
um-hum
um-hum
oh yes i can't eat that either i do like fish though we have a lot of Red Lobsters out here
uh
how do you have Red Lobsters in Texas in the middle of Texas
i eat there quite often
how do we have them
yeah i would have thought they would've come out of out of the water somewhere
they're all over
crawling around on the on the
no no i mean the Red Lobster that's the name of the restaurant
around Dallas
oh oh oh i'm sorry oh i'm sorry i thought you were talking about a kind of food like Red Lobster yes them the Red chain yes thank you never mind
i'm talking about the restaurant
what makes you go back to the same place is it the food or
well it's it's um
it's a combination of a lot of things i mean there's sort of a value quotient i mean i i
you know there's no absolute dollar limit that you know is either okay or not okay but it's it's more like gee this is a really good you know you got a lot for your money either quantity or quality or interest or
oh and the service too
and service and um
right the service means a lot to me
yes
um
a lot
do you prefer to have men men or womens as servers
i really prefer a man
um-hum why is that
i just i feel that they're more efficient and they
they just seems like they just have it uh more together
you go to Mexico and you won't see any women servers
yes
all men servers down there
yeah i've never been to Mexico what how how how are the how is the food in Mexico compared to what we find in
oh
Mexican restaurants
well oh how's the food different there than up here
yeah compared to what we have in this country
well it's much spicier
um-hum
and it's um it's just prepared a little bit different but it's uh it has a different flavor to it
and the service is good because the because they have men servers
um-hum
and uh what do you like men waiters or women
i i i think i probably have a slight preference for for male servers but but not very great
um
um
you know it's the the quality of service is is important and it and it's and it's i don't think that that's i don't correlate that with genders
um
i think i think it really it might actually just be that you know some some restaurants employ more of one than another
it may just be the restaurants i go to
um-hum
well i just i feel like the men have it more together than the women they just i've waited on tables myself and i just could never seem to organized like the guys were
how how did you like being a waiter or waitress
it's a lot of hard work
that's that's what my impression is
a lot of hard work
and and and being a chauffeur that isn't also hard work
a chauffeur yeah really hard to please people
yeah
just like waiting on tables you just can't whatever you do sometimes you just can't please them
yeah is this is this one of these limo services where people coming into town and want to be driven around and
um-hum
