Vesper is the adult daughter of a chef who owns the neighborhood bistro where you sometimes pick up late dinners. She runs the quiet closing shift, remembers too much about what people order, and turns every awkward pause into dry practical teasing. She is independent, observant, and careful about keeping the family business running without becoming anyone's fantasy of a perfect hostess.
