La Maison
Savoir-attendre.
Savoir-faire is knowing how to make. Savoir-attendre is knowing how to hold the receipt and look at nothing in particular. The Maison practises only the second.
- Minute 0
The order is placed. The Maison is founded at the counter and has no other premises.
- Minute 2
A receipt is issued, bearing a number. The number is adopted as the house’s coat of arms.

- Minute 9
A table is chosen. The Maison does not otherwise decorate.
- Minute 14

- Today
Independent, unlisted, and owned entirely by whoever holds the receipt.
