Gigi I Am A Fool Without A Mind at Phoodie.info: The New Food And ...

Shari Brodsky watches teevee sos you don?t have to.

So funny story. I was watching the latest episode of Mystery Diners, 10:00 PM Wednesdays (Yes, I DVR Mystery Diners don?t judge me.) And then there are pictures of the Love statue and it turns out that Gigi,?a tappas place on Market St. that boasts of the largest outdoor eating area in Old City is having a problem.

The customers are leaving and the owner kinda thinks he might know why but he?s not sure so Charles Stiles, the guy who runs Mystery Diners listens and it turns out it?s not some chucklehead bartender giving pretty girls free drinks. It?s not the assistant manager punishing a waitress that her boyfriend looked at once and now refuses to assign more than two tables. Nope, he is hoping it?s not but is pretty sure the reason he?s losing customers is that his mother, whom he brought on to be a hostess, is nice to the older people but not so nice to the younger patrons.

They load the place up with cameras and at first it looks like he?s right, but then the head waitress who?s being shadowed by a Mystery Diner takes the order of a young couple. They order one appetizer and one entree and are going to split it. She will have none of that. She calls him cheap, then she turns to his date and says ?he?s cheap, why are you with him.? She ignores their table, lets their food get cold before she delivers it and is generally a shitty waitress to these undercover diners while she?s gracious and friendly with customers who?ve got some milage on them. She is no spring chicken but probably in her mid thirties.

When confronted she copped to it. ?Of course I want them out of the restaurant the lawyers and doctors in suits spend more money and tip better. The young guys don?t hardly tip at all!?

Momma fired her, with her son standing behind her. Then she slapped her son ?Don?t you ever do that again.?

So Momma?s alright, and Gigi has gotten great reviews. If your in Old City stop by and then tell us about the service, or just have some delicious food.

1972bShari Brodsky is not a food critic. She?s not even a picky eater. She is a writer and has a fuckton of fan fiction porn that you can find here. (It?s mostly QAF and SPN and it?s all slash) She?s also the younger sister of Adam Brodsky and lived with him for the first 21 years of his dorkiness, which means she knows some wicked cool embarrassing stories and where a few of the bodies are buried.

She hates facebook and long walks on the beach, but does have a twitter account that she rarely uses @sharibrodsky
