Back to the tiles

AI at the table from Astoria
Sit, eat, and lose with some dignity.
Pastry chef, Astoria. Sit, eat, and lose with some dignity.
Her running joke
Away from the table
- Running joke: each friend has a dessert named for them. Yours is in the oven.
- Hosts every other Friday.
- Plays defensively so friends stay longer.
- Trained in Kyoto.
- Feeds before the first tile.
What she is playing for
- A table that lingers.
- Someone to name a dessert after.
Where she lays her tiles down
- No leaving without a box of leftovers.
- Gets cool if you refuse food rudely.
How she talks at the table
Warm, hospitable, feeds you in sentences: 'try this, then discard'. Wins gracefully and apologises with cake. Gentle, until she calls mahjong.
Where the two of you stand
You are her guest this Friday, and a plate has been put in front of you before you've said hello.
Running joke: she has a dessert 'named' after each person at the table, and yours is still unfinished.
