- There you are.

- Thanks.

Walter, what a surprise! I didn't know

you celebrated Valentine's Day.

We have salmon tartare

with apple and kohlrabi.

There.

Has the tiger been

allowed out again, pal?

I'll be right with you.

So tell me, Walter,

who's the lucky lady this evening?

Her name's Sylvia. We arranged to meet

at a quarter to seven.

She's a bit late, eh?

- She's coming by public transport.

- That's always risky, eh Walter?

- Where did you meet her?

- On the computer, it's our first date.

- Wow. Walter!

- We've never met before.

- She always signs with a capital S.

- That may be S for sensual.

- D'you think so?

- Or for soupspoon.

- Good evening.

- De Keyzer.

I made a reservation for two

but I'm on my own.

No problem. Come with me.

- You reserved this table?

- Yes.

Shall I take your coat?

Thank you.

Good evening, madam.

I sat on the other side.

OK.

- An aperitif when your date gets here?

- He cancelled.

He shouldn't have.

Leave me alone.

- Vervaeke.

- Follow me.

Good God, look who it is.

- Good evening, Mr Vervaeke.

- Don't stand up.

Good evening, madam.

Vervaeke. From the firm of that name.

He switched his whole fleet to me.

Wow, it's really smart!

- Pleased?

- Yes.

- Good evening, um... Van Groothuizen.

- Table 6.

- Five tables, eight covers.

- Got it!

- Ingrid?

- Yes?

It's Valentine's Day, eh?

- Yes, so?

- Uh... I...

I just wondered whether you fancied...

- Kevin, how's that sauce doing? Come on.

- Yes, Chef.

Well, Emma? How's the steak?

There you are.

- Good evening.

- Good evening. Claessens.

- Table 9.

- Follow me, please.

This way.

What are you doing here, Mr Janssens?

I know, I should've come before now.

But I couldn't decide

whether to come or not and...

I'm only in Belgium for a few days.

For my father's funeral.

And I'm off again soon. The taxi's

picking me up at half past nine.

Half past nine?

No problem.

You'll be able to have dessert.

I'll bring the dessert

and the coffee together.

Are you married?

What about you?

- I'm going through a trial separation.

- A trial separation?

But it will become permanent.

- And the taxi?

- The taxi?

- Where's it taking you?

- To Zaventem, to the airport, sorry.

- I'm flying to Buenos Aires tonight.

- Buenos Aires?

- That's where we...

- Where we wanted to go together.

Yes...

I work at the Belgian embassy there.

- I'm a shuttle diplomat.

- That's right up your street.

I'm glad you've landed

on your feet, Frank.

Really, I mean it.

It's good to see you again.

I'll make sure you catch your flight,

the menu is a well planned one.

Come to Buenos Aires with me.

Pascaline?

Vandevelde, which table?
