Elevating Diners’ Experience and Restaurant Revenues During the Holidays
One of the most exciting parts of watching Olympic swimmers race is seeing the “underdogs” come from behind and win. Knowing they have one last chance, these athletes harness every bit of their strength, move steadily to the front of the pack, and finish first in a dramatic moment.

Likewise, a lovely commercial from John Lewis & Partners, a chain of high-end department stores in the UK, has convinced me that a Christmas time piano is what launched Elton John’s career. (Some fact-checkers have raised questions about that sequence of events, but I’m not here for that kind of “Bah! Humbug” energy.)
