Chicago Tribune's Article about Waiter Rant
One of the
most entertaining blogs on the net IMO.
Waiter Rant (waiterrant.net) reads like a sitcom script about life in a busy New York bistro -- daffy diners, wisecrackin' waiters and all. There's the affable narrator as Everyman, the colorful staff as makeshift family, the customer as comic foil.
Sometimes sarcastic, sometimes poignant, each post is like an episode with a pithy punch line. Unlike Sam from "Cheers," however, the anonymous scribe of Waiter Rant is real, and so are his sporadically terrible customers. Our man always keeps his cool and delivers service with a smile . . . until he gets to the therapy couch he calls laptop.
