Hi, my name is Jonathan, and I waited too long to pay the check. There, that feels much better. Although it doesn't change the fact that Friday night, I was a check squatter.
I sat and neither ate nor paid. Instead, I was genuinely oblivious to the simple fact that the restaurant needed my table back. And for that, I am sorry.
You've got a little something....No, not there. It's just to the right (pointing next to the corner of your lip)...no, the other side...
The act of telling someone they've got cheese on their chin can be an awkward moment. You can wipe your kid's cheek with a wet paper towel, but your boss will require a slightly more delicate touch. But where does your obligation end when it comes to telling somebody that have food on their face?
Was that Usher eating at the Cheesecake Factory late Saturday night after his concert at the Sprint Center? It's not unlikely -- the California-based dining chain is one of the few restaurants on the Country Club Plaza that serves late on weekends.
A bartender at the restaurant told a Pitch reporter that the staff was sure it was Usher. For one thing, he was in town. "He looked just like him," said the bartender, "but he was in a hoodie and sunglasses and it wasn't like we could say, 'Hey, are you Usher?' "
Why couldn't he? What is the proper etiquette when celebrities are in a restaurant? First rule: Don't gawk.
