Alison tightened the knot of her dark burgundy apron and hurried to pick up the polished silver tray from the pass, which would be her faithful companion for the rest of the day.
"Fifth table!" called out April, the restaurant manager, after her.
"Yeah, I'm on my way!" Alison nodded in response and confidently pushed the revolving kitchen doors aside, brushing her reddish bangs off her pretty face.
She had been working as a waitress at the Golden Lion restaurant for a year and had learned to fit into the hectic rhythm of the establishment when circumstances demanded.
The job was far from easy, but it had its advantages, such as staff meals provided by the establishment and flexibility. However, the main advantage of working here were the generous tips that often helped Alison make it from paycheck to paycheck without dipping into her so-called untouchable cash reserve, where she saved the money for her subsequent training at a college.
The Golden Lion was not just an ordinary café where you stopped by to gulp down a couple of cups of coffee or order mashed potatoes with a cutlet for a cheap lunch. No, there was a full-fledged menu here, consisting of several sections of Eastern and Western cuisine, where you could find both Asian Pad Thai noodles with chicken in sweet and sour sauce or Korean-style fried rice with scallops and shrimp, as well as Greek Caesar salad, meat stewed in French pots, or Italian pizza made according to ancient recipes by an experienced chef who had trained in Rome itself.
To emphasize the specialty of his establishment, the director of the Golden Lion specially hired an administrator who personally controlled the arrival of all guests and made sure that the most affluent of them always got the best tables. April could quickly assess the income of the guests and, based on that, distribute them to the most advantageous seating positions. She would then signal the waiters in what order and at what speed to serve this or that order.
Alison correctly caught the gaze of the manager, who pointed her to a group of young businessmen in the right corner of the restaurant. They obviously came from a large business center across the street. Judging by the fact that there was not a single free seat at their wide table, they were either celebrating something or concluding some grand deal. Alison decided to approach them a little later and first serve the handsome elderly gentleman at the second table, who was modestly sitting behind a huge exotic floor plant in a bright clay pot. His strict business suit and neatly combed gray hair, together with his gold watch and exquisite pen, identified him as a practicing lawyer. Such people constantly strive to settle all their personal affairs as quickly as possible because in the office they already, no doubt, have a couple of perspective clients waiting for them, missing out on which would be an unacceptable thing.
The main hall had quickly filled up with visitors, and Alison took a deep breath of the cool air. She was in for an extremely tough work shift today, in large part because her partner had chosen the wrong day to get sick.
Friday was one of the busiest days for cafes and restaurants, and poor Nina had fallen ill with a cold, so Alison would have to be alone all day, which was very difficult when the restaurant became so crowded that there was literally no room to move.
Suddenly, Alison caught April's angry glare, who whispered with her lips: "Table five! Quickly!!"
The girl felt momentarily flustered, as there were so many people around and she was alone! But then the waitress managed to gather herself. Taking control, she headed towards the group of wealthy men, who were still waiting for her to appear at their table.
"Look who has honored us with her attention!" one of the businessmen half-jokingly muttered. "Miss, we've been waiting for you for an hour!"
