Comes in and asks for a quiet table for one.
Orders an Ice Tea with lemon and Fish & Chips.
Wait, what? From yesterday? Because Botic won!

Table for three, please: Mackie, "Pamela", and yours truly.
Sure. Who did you lose to/with? So our sommelier can propose a proper
poison drink.
I thought my Pamela reference would suffice, alas it only made me show my age (as I hoped Gasquet would do for himself today.)
C(hampagne) with a kiss, please.

If she stays here longer, she is going to have to start waiting on tables...

Tsangria for me, please. Tsurenko took me out against compatriot Kalinina. Got a little too cute, picking her because she's seeded. I once described Tsurenko in a story as so heavily taped that she looked "practically mummified from quad to calf," a line I really liked. So a toast to my muse and vanquisher.
yes, that was risky. Let us know if you need another pitcher, not just one
Yep, bring me the whole thing now that Mertens is through and I stupidly didn't go with her.

I made a mistake in eating here today because van de Zandesculp won. I got a free meal today.

Hey, they took a picture of all of us Bautista Agut pickers today:

I am wearing a red shirt (that was smart), one foot ahead of the leading, fire breathing, snot throwing, blood shot eyes bull. Just let us know where you are in the shot.
We got a case of this:

Just for us today. Cheers!
I’m the one in the yellow shirt on the right side of the photo, wishing I went with Garin for today’s pick.

Table for six, courtesy of Sir Schwartzman. We offer a variation on an argentinean beef platter:

And we do our "maridage" with a fine wine from the Argentinean winery "Bodegas del fin del mundo", the vineyards from the end of the world, which is where you would rather be right now, I am sure:

Salud, pibes!

He's known as Richie Red Shoes 'round these parts... because he once took a picture wearing red shoes...

I feel like I got trampled by that bull. Couldn't he just do a Cornet at Roland Garros? (JK)

Ah, got it. I thought Pamela was another picker that was to join you.
Here are your champagne flutes, and, well, we cannot serve you that other "ingredient" implied in your reference. You know, we like to keep it within he rules.

Guess being taken out by a German isn't so bad then.
