So over at the Day Jobs there’s a great topic on tipping, which has actually degenerated into a bitch session about tipping and shitty service in general.
I’ve mentioned in this space before that I am a ritual kinda guy. I love going to specific restaurants and bars on a regular basis. I didn’t just randomly select these places…I go there because I get consistently good service. The Grit, and Room 13 are my personal favorites. I know most of the Grit servers. They know I’m a nice guy, an easy table, and I tip very well. So I get great service. Room 13, they know I tip well, so I get strong ass drinks. It all works out. When I deviate from my rituals, things can get dicey.
Anyway, we’re going out Friday night to 283 bar. Not one of my regular spots, but I’ve never had a bad experience there. Meghan loves it cause the bartenders there know how to make a mean cosmopolitan. I just like the PBR served in a boot shaped glass. Last time I checked their jukebox has the Star Room Boys on it.
