Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A Second Helping: Whining and Dining on Long Island picks up whereTom Schaudel's first book, Playing With Fire, left off as a playful rompthrough the crazy world of restaurants, dining rooms, and professionalkitchens. Filled with short stories of neurotic customers, stressed outservers, crazed cooks, and the undeniably unhinged, his unique andhumorous observations will have you wondering how the expression,"The customer is always right," ever came to be.Looking back through a fifty-year restaurant career, Tom has assembled acast of characters that would be the envy of fiction writers everywhere. Inthis book, you will meet an f-bombing octogenarian, a D-level celebrityasking for separate checks at her wedding, an aspiring counterfeiterwith a seriously flawed gift certificate, the nine-year-old antichrist,and a woman who flushed a six-carat diamond ring down a toilet bowl.This latest collection is guaranteed to make you stay up late and laughout loud and is a must read for anyone who has ever eaten in a restaurant,worked in a restaurant, asked to use the restroom in a restaurant or, Godforbid, dreamed of owning a restaurant.
