Where: Eros' workplace (Burgers), Queens
When: Thursday evening
Rating/Warnings: TBD
Burgers didn't serve high cuisine. It wasn't even medium or the high end of low. No, Burgers food bobbed between lower medium and almost bottom. But that was okay because people didn't come here to pamper their palates. Spoil maybe but not in the usual sense.
Johnny was the new chef and with the new chef the quality of the food served was improving little by little. This one, for example, seemed to know other seasoning than salt existed and he made burgers that weren't black as coal and he knew how to make salads (with more than just lettuce). The fries weren't limp and drowning in fat and he was much more cheerful than the old chef. Hummed a lot, sometimes even sang if the mood struck him. The waitresses liked the boy and Bernard congratulated himself for hiring that perky young man. Business was picking up and he no longer had to worry about whether he'd be able to pay the staff's wages.
Also, ever since Johnny put on that white cap and came in every day, the general mood of everybody had improved as well.
And Johnny? Well, Johnny sort of liked this job. Eros didn't so much but he liked having a regular income. Being a street musician was not the most profitable of professions so this would have to do.
"Table five!" shouted Johnny, hitting the bell with gusto as he slid the plate across the counter.
