M had a warm but soft, slightly firm handshake. If that is possible.
He has just opened up his next new restaurant in Melbourne. Therefore it is funky and has gold embossed things and vintage chairs and an open kitchen for people to watch cooks, cook. Chefs, sorry, Chefs.
He seemed slightly nervous and uncertain of how to speak to my friend J. I was introduced to M through J just then, and then they had their small catchup chat, how the other looks good and how life is "busy". Life is meant to be busy, so we can feel satisfied.
I assumed it would be a small talk and then a walk away, which was what it was. But he smiled and acknowledged me at the end and said nice to meet me, and used my name. He remembers names, even in passing. I gotta learn that skill.
Then we went and bought a curly wurly.
