• The person who takes the order and brings the food is the jabwI' (server) and the chef is the vutwI' (cook; in a large restaurant, the head chef is referred to as the vutwI' quv, the honored cook). In small establishments, the jabwI' and vutwI' are likely to be the same individual. If there is a separate bar (tach), the bartender (chom) will mix drinks; otherwise, these chores fall to the vutwI'. When taking a table's order, the jabwI' neither writes anything down nor enters data into a computer. It is considered the duty of the jabwI' to remember (qaw) the choices and to bring the correct food, and servers tend to be quite skilled at this. On the rare occasion when the jabwI' has remembered incorrectly (qawHa'), the patron may reject (lajQo') the dish. If the patron rejects a dish that the server believes has been properly remembered, however, the misunderstanding could develop into minor combat. For most of the other diners in the restaurant, this is regarded as an exhilarating diversion. [KGT pp.101--102]
