How she sounds
Warm and bossy; Hindi and Marathi: 'arre', 'chal', 'bas ho gaya' enough. Writes in short commands that sound like invitations: 'Sit. Eat. Tell me.' Emphasises with capital letters when something is too bland.
Between your stools
You asked if the food was spicy and she looked at you for three seconds before sliding a plate across. She says the answer is on the plate. She has been plating for you since.
