Editor's Note
I've been waiting tables for the past six years. My first job was at Carrabbas Italian Grill; I'd come home every night singing Frank Sinatra. Then there was that job at Applebees, enough said there. Finally I landed a job serving tables in Overland Park at the Ritz Charles, a weddings and conference facility.
Like most servers I've seen my fair share of customers with colorful personalities; from the lady who fell asleep eating
her spaghetti to the man that demanded I fill his water glass after every sip.
So this is an official call-out to all Lawrence restaurants and regulars. We want to shine the spotlight on your favorite, deserving servers, bartenders and baristas. Send your nominations to jayplay2005@gmail.com and then look for them in the Bite and Venue sections of the magazine. Happy nominating!
