Creator's Key Takeaways
Do one full lap first. No plate mountain, no just a little taste detour, just a quick scan.
The smarter cruisers use quiet windows. Go a little earlier than the crowd or a little later and it becomes a totally different place.
The moment you walk in, spend 10 seconds finding a base, a table, even if it's not perfect.
Wash or sanitize before you touch anything, not after you've already handled the utensils.
