A quick note today from Hall Street Grill in Beaverton. The restaurant will be closed for renovation from October 25th – November 1st, reopening November 2nd.
El Gaucho seems to think some people have lost their manners, and are going to be offering a series of blog posts and classes covering various aspects of dining etiquette:
- Restaurant 101
- Table Manners
- Understanding Place Settings
- How to Handle the Bill
- Technology at the Table
- The Art of the Toast
- Dining In Style at Home
- Wine Etiquette
- Etiquette for Emerging Adults
“Emerging Adults” must be the politically correct term for children. Interesting that they feel this information is needed, but from what I frequently see happening around me in restaurants, I think it might be valuable to some people. I was brought up with manners to dine at the White House, but the kids these days… It’s nice to be getting older. Now I can drop the manners and spray my food all over the dining table. People just say, “Oh, that poor old man over there must have forgotten his teeth!”
