Eater chat withRogue24 ’s RJ Cooper — the epicurean Himmler behind the dining contract bridge . He does n’t say why he cave , but he does excuse the original logical thinking behind the block :
Why no phones or photos ?
It ’s really about being polite to your fellow Guest and your dining companions . If everyone brings out their sound , it detracts from the experience . We ’re not telling you not to Tweet ; we have area to do that . you may do it in the salon or the bathroom . We just do n’t desire cellphone speech sound in the dining room .
You ’re attached to your sound ; you Tweet ; you ’re on Facebook . In dining cultivation today , people care to document their meals in a variety of media . Do you think it ’s unjust to take guest to not do that at your restaurant when it ’s so rife at other restaurants ?
Oh hey , those points are both in reality incredibly reasonable . We want to share the play times we ’re have over in effect solid food , but doing so often pushes by those we ’re eating with , distorts the use of the meal per se , and annoys everyone around us . I do n’t take any issue with Cooper endeavor to keep phones out of his dining room — it ’s his spliff , and he want the food to be about the food , not a JPEG of the food for thought . It ’s the declaration that put him into maniacal territory . But if guests are n’t want to ink an agreement anymore , a softer mean value of enforcement sounds O.K. . And besides , we all know everyone ’s just go to text under the table anyway . [ feeder ]
