Walter asked the waiter about the restaurant’s daily special.
The waiter described slow-cooked beef with seasonal vegetables.
Walter asked how slow the cooking really was.
The waiter checked the kitchen clock before answering….
Walter distrusted menu words. Rustic meant uneven. Artisan meant expensive. Deconstructed meant someone had dropped lunch carefully.
The waiter promised the beef was cooked for twelve hours.
Walter asked when those twelve hours had started.
The waiter looked toward the kitchen.
The chef waved from beside an empty pot.
Walter asked whether the special was ready now.
The waiter said it would be perfect by tomorrow morning.
Walter pointed to the words DAILY SPECIAL.
The waiter nodded.
It is special every day. You only eat it the next one.
