"If you can't pronounce it any better than that, sir, you probably wouldn't like it anyway."

"Your food didn't melt, young man... this is the soup course."

"The menu just says fried fish, but may I give you a more compelling, surprisingly lyrical description?"

'This is one of our most recent vintages!'

"Waiter! Two of your finest menus!"

'We don't 'skimp' on the pour, sir; we're just generous with the glass.'

'Er . . . and a fork for me...'

"Which wine would you pair with the complimentary bread and butter?"

"I know you've been waiting a long time, but the Pearls were here before you."

"This deserves an Instagram photo. Would you mind taking a picture of someone washing the dishes when I'm done?"

'I'm filling in for the sommelier. We have a fine shiraz today for only $39. It's 14.7 alcohol, a Class 1B flammable, so if I see you consume it near an open flame, I'll have to cite you.'
