Then he left the restaurant without looking back. Restaurants – Sitting alone after what happened For a moment I stood still. I sat there trying to figure out what had happened.

Part 2: Reflection and Conclusion
The note goes on to describe how we took note of certain patrons in the way we approach decisions together. No solo dining, under no circumstances, compromise and communication are indispensable.
