Open Question: Is it rude to say a blessing for your food when you are eating in public and the server…?

is waiting to speak to you? Somebody I know has a habit of always starting their blessing when they see the server walking towards the table. When I asked why she does it, she says so that she can set an example of praying for her food. In other words, she purposefully waits until the poor guy or girl is walking over to ask if there's anything else they can get, and she starts to pray out loud so that the server has to stand there and wait until she's finished. I say a prayer in my head over my food, but I do it when there's nobody waiting for my response to a question. As a Christian (and anybody else who wants to answer), don't you think it would be more polite for this person to not hold the server up? Just wanted another opinion on this. God bless.
