So if you ate in the restaurant, would this guy be your waiter? Or does he only deal with takeout?
Because if, theoretically, he were flirting with < insert name here >, then that person could go to the restaurant and eat in during some sort of off hour, like three pm on a Saturday, giving said restaurant employee a chance to have a longer chat with said friendly but reserved person, perhaps leading to an extra-restaurantal type of invitation. That is, if the person in question wished to encourange an extra-restaurantal interaction.
I haven't done this sort of thing in ages, but years ago I had a very satisfactory fling with the deli clerk at my local market. I had to take the first real step, though. In fact, here is a thought: does one call the restaurant in advance to order the takeout food? And does the restaurant ask for one's phone number? Because then maybe one could encourage a restaurant-related call, such as "Call me when it's ready" or "Let me know when you are making that special okra chupatti again."
