Responding to Life is Wild's intuitive reaction to being at Lavinia's recently - you could be picking up on the fact that the chef who was with Lavinia's since the beginning left in late summer. The front of the house manager, Brendan, who had also been on board since the beginning, also left in Sept. The current manager, Doug, came to Lavinia's in late summer from Canoe. The entire front of the house staff is new, the chef is new, and the management is new. Perhaps this explains their possibly anxious, eager to please, vibe.
