The poor waitor's stare. Making love to my shell fish. Moist crotchless napkin. Butter & Lemons. The squirt of hot cocktail sauce. A wafer thin mint.

Ahh and line 2, yes I recall a japanese waiter in a sushi bar with 3 fingers 'making love to my fish' too, he made so much more effort than the others.

Hmm yes I feel a 'fortune cookie moment' coming on.

Yes, and when he hands him the mint and flees, leaping for cover, like he's in a war? Riveting.
