Or phone ahead, they're usually more than happy to answer your queries as long as you don't phone during the busy lunch or evening shifts. The area in front of the podium is not the place to decide what you're going to eat. That's why you look at the menu when you SIT. Picky eaters, check in advance. And from the post, it was unclear that she wanted a table - that's why she was fussing about what the kid would eat, right?

Okay, she wasn't very nice, but it's not as if it was unclear to you at that point that she wanted a table. If you're going to deliberately provoke people you disapprove of, at least admit that's what you're doing instead of playing all innocent. It's too bad you can't try to be the bright spot in an unhappy customer's day.
