Those who have stayed in Mumbai for a while would be familiar with the 'quarter' culture of the regular Mumbai bars. These bars are more for observing than for drinking. You will find regulars coming in, sitting in their reular seats, bartenders bringing them their regular quarters (without being told) as well as snacks.
The quarter is quickly disposed off (soda, water,ice etc have come unasked for), the bill (pre-determined) settled and the patron off to catch his (pre-determined) local train.
It is like a well oiled machine and any discontinuity of the patron is sure to cause confusion and concern for the regular waiter.
You may have observed that 'regular' is the keyword here :-)
And the loyalty of the management to the loyal customers has to be seen to be believed. Come hell or high water, bandh or police raid, the customer is not to be disturbed. He will be sevred his regular quota and will be allowed to finish it in peace. I wish some other cities, Bangalore included could imbibe!!! some of this customer service culture!!
