Approximately how many tables are there at this restaurant. It seems a shame 
that you would let good twisting opportunities get away from you. No offense 
intended here, but in the time it takes you to make that one hat you could 
be expanding to make others. (unfortunately, with the vast plethora of hats 
out there that can be made, especially if you check the balloon hq, or even 
if you ask for advice here, anything else sounds like a cop out) In this 
market here, for instance, if all I did was the same old tired routines 
every week (and I have been at one restaurant for 3 years now), there is NO 
WAY I would get the bookings that I get, and mind you, I don't advertise a 
whole lot but stay quite busy.
If your repertoire is that limited, try experimenting before you go to the 
restaurant, this is a great way to come up with new things and will 
certainly improve your speed. One other question, do you do this full time 
or are you a hobbyist?

I am not trying to start a major controversy over this, I just see, all to 
often, people trying to take the "easy way out", when they could excell with 
a little bit of work.
just sticking my nose out there
