The Best Seat in the House? - Where is it?

[Goatweed]

I could make a joke about the black guy having to sit in the back of the restaurant, but that would be way too cliche.

I was thinking this too - it made me think of that Halle Berry commercial where her and her friends are escorted through the dining room inot the kitchen :1:

As far as sitting at the Chef's table in the kitchen, I don't think it's viewed as the best seat in the house because of the atmosphere, but more as a sign of respect for sitting at his personal table. I find the best seats in restaurants are usually those that are set far back from the rest of the people, but not too far back that the waiter/waitress forgets about checking up on you.
