little story:
went to renee's on 5th & wilshire with friends. at one point went to get refill for my friend and me. bartender was pouring a mixed shot with cointreau, asked what it was, instead of answering she made a shot for her and me, free. very nice of her, but i still needed a real drink for me and my friend, so i got her attention again and placed order. (apple martini for friend, dirty gin martini for me) first she asked if she could upgrade me to sapphire for free (um, sure), then we start getting talking about gin, they don't have van gogh gin (personal fav) but have van gogh flavored vodkas, i say "so it's cool you have belvedere, but you should also have chopin (fav vodka)" bartender was like, omg, that's your favorite vodka? that's mine too! we keep talking, she's polish, blah blah blah, says, "i'm buying those drinks for you." i was like, wow, thanks, and gave her a tip that pretty much negated the value of getting three drinks for free. i bring dates there occasionally, now i hope to get hooked up whenever she's working there 🙂
too bad i vomited so much this morning and have a formidable headache.
