I timidly approach the first waiter in a black shirt, asking him available for 4 people, these kind and caring, asks me to wait a second to sincerely on the terrace, in person, when turning to the inside of the bar, known a second waiter, with unequivocal clothes, and instinctively to tell him about my need and nice problem back home and that would be done too late, if you let wait. Turn, sudden. magically, the best table, the reserved one, makes itself available and for the more the service at the table looks fast, as if we had only been in that bar, instead full.
