Does it come with a wedge of cheese?
I actually prefer my old fashioned with simple syrup (or demerara syrup if available) and stirred without muddling an orange or a cherry. But I'm usually okay with however the bar makes it.

When we were at the outdoor bar at Harvest, lunch time, we had this bartendar who actually sounded a bit arrogant. But he asked me if I wanted my old fashioned muddled. I mentioned that no one had ever asked me that. He said, then how do they know how you like it. He made it exactly as I wanted. He made my wife a "southside" which is basically a gimlet with mint, exactly as she specified. Great drinks.
