The first table they offer you is just a suggestion. Never take the first table. The second table they offer you will be worse, as if to punish you for trying to break out of the sad little box they want to put you in. Once they realize they’re not going to be able to squash your soul like a bug? They’ll allow you to sit at a Good Table. Where you can enjoy your meal as you write a scathing essay about them on your phone. 😁
Personally I prefer a table by the window so I have a view. and can make believe I'm not eating alone in a restaurant at all. As for HGB I wrote for Cosmo back in the day but avoided her like the plague. I'd come in to look at the "idea book" and skulk around since she hated fat people, and I was one. Love your attitude!
Do not diss me when I have gone to the trouble of putting on eyeliner.
Love it. And the headline is brilliant....

Bravo! May you have the tables you want at each meal in Paris! And meals that will be exactly what you wanted, presented perfectly!
