Community Table

Dad was here this weekend to sign the final papers for the condo, and it was super nice to see him and Meaghan. After signing the papers, we got some basics for the condo, like tp and hand soap, as well as some linens for the sofa bed. Anyone want to come visit? Haha. It is so weird to think that I could move over there whenever I want. For now though, I am going to stay where I am and take advantage of it for studying purposes, otherwise leaving it mostly alone.

In any case, the real reason I am posting is because I noticed a common theme at the restaurants in CH: community tables. At Chipotle, our lunch stop, after getting your food you sat down at a long community table that seats around 12 people. At dinner that night at the Heights, we could have waited 20-30 min, or sat at one of the 2 (or 3?) community tables, which sat 10. We chose the community table, and while service was slow, it wasn't bad. The next night, we went to an Italian place, and once again, the community tables system was in effect. It was so odd to see at so many places, so maybe it is a CH thing, I don't know. In any case, it was interesting, and I am definitely going back to all of those places at some point, especially because they are literally in my building. :-)
