I'm with you on that. There's something special about a personal interaction with a waiter and a paper menu

People will find a way to be nostalgic about anything I guess.

"There's something special about having a wire attached to your phone."

"There's something special about greeting a lift operator."

"There's something special about hand-washing clothes."

There’s indeed something special about a waiter pretending to be my best friend — the discomfort is quite special.

Yeah fortunately that's pretty unique to the US. I will never forget when I asked a waiter in Chicago where the loo was and he led me to it. Super weird.
