The only thing I hate about this is that I wasn't invited. There were 6 people there. They drank (besides the two scotches) 5 bottles of the best red wines, plus 2 magnums of good champagne. Figuring a magnum is roughly 2 standard bottles, they drank 1.5 standard bottles each. Partay!

Thats Mare Monte sketti DougM. Boy I sure would like to work for a table like this one! What a payday - might actually pay for the goddamn taxes in that god-awful city. I love NYC but, the taxes are making it too damn expensive to live in, visit or do business in. They are driving out the taxable income and the city will have no alternatives - they will tax the rabble until it leaves too and THEN the welfare rats will be left to eat the remainder. In any event, not a good outcome.

I'm so old fashoned. If given the choice I would calculate the tip on the food and give the sommelier an individual tip. And I would not give him 20% of the wine price. Even if I am spending #35K on wine it does not call for a $7K tip to suggest and pour. Then again, everything is getting crappy. I went to a Chinese buffet yesterday and they added a 15% tip because my party was 6. It was a buffet - I got my own food - all they did was bus and take drink orders.

I thought "Cristal Rose Magnum" was the name of the Duke rape accuser...???

If you google the restaurant you'll find it doesn't get very many favorable reviews. Food is apparently not exactly up to par.

As for the Cristal, $5,000 for something you can buy elsewhere for $800?

I'll pass.

Time on the check is 14:39. If we're talking lunch, that one was mighty wet.

I have eaten there and it is high as a kite - obscenely expensive.
