WHY: Venture to Berbati’s Pan for some
music on any given Fri, Sat, or Sun night, and you’ll find Adam chefing up falafels
and french fries.
Who’s your favorite crowd to cook for?
“I really like electronica and hip-hop, it’s my favorite kind of music that
plays here. When I’m at home, though, I listen to a lot of classical and opera.”
What does the hip-hop crowd eat?
“Hip-hop eats quesadillas and pepper steak sandwiches. That’s it.”
What do the other crowds eat?
“Well, electronica orders a lot of falafels and salads. Goth people? Hmm.
They’re kind of all over the place. I think goths eat a lot of stir fry.”
Who eats the most?
“Those shows when people can sit down, then they eat the most.”
Do you like your job?
“Yeah, I like it because a lot of interesting people come through here.”
Like who?
“Well, there’s this one guy, we call him Poster Boy. He puts up the posters
for all the shows, and he has been doing it since Berbati’s opened four years
ago. He gets crushes on all the female rock stars; he brings them flowers. He’s
a friend of mine.”
