Wait, where did your plate go? If this scenario rings a bell, you’ll appreciate Phyllis Richman’s latest lamentation about waiters and disappearing dishes. In “At the Dinner Table, A Comedy of Manners,” Richman discusses the latest trend of waiters confiscating anything and everything off the table before you’ve even had the chance to finish eating. Spotlight-hungry servers and different vintages of water are also open to Richman’s scrupulous eye. So read up before this article gets snatched up in the plate-nabbing cross-fire.
