Mark Canlis shares the 60-year-old restaurant's decidedly low-tech system for retrieving diners' cars at just the right moment, without taking a ticket or a name.

Valeting cars by memory is all the more impressive, since "Canlis isn't one of those cute little restaurants with eight tables where the owner is also cooking all the food." [MSNBC]
