Okay so that message I thought was private was not? I'm completely confused. Because someone messaged me that they were interested in good cocktails too. I believe my notification said it was a visitor message. They mentioned snarky replies in the thread. I replied something like TOTV has a bunch of curmedgeons and expected snarkiness. Clearly you 2 somehow are in on that message.

I apparently don't know how to use the forum correctly.

Still confused as I can't find it except when I click my profile. Anyhow, I do want a bar at my house (outside as I said).

But going to sit at a bar is something we like for the social aspect. Even with all the snarky curmudgeons.

Oh and we had okay luck at Wolfgang Pucks.

Harvest is about the best we have.
There are places who pour more..........but it's jus-not-done-right.
Country Clubs are volume (more served the better) bartenders...........get it close & move on.

I saw one poster was more or less.......................do it at home.
True, but sometimes............I want 2 B waited on.

Enjoy the journey.

This is about what we have found and I agree, sometimes I want to be waited on also, and meet new people. Thanks for the tip on the country clubs. I'll stick to vodka soda or beer at them.

LOL I recall being really annoyed the first time you posted on one of my thread. I even stopped coming to the forum for a bit because I saw so many negative posts (not just that one from you).

Anyhow, these days I tend to agree with your posts more than most so I guess sometimes ya gotta get a feel for the place.

Agree
I posted it yesterday but my go to is Marks Prime in Ocala. I have simpler tastes than you possibly but it's a good spot all around.

Sounds like you should bartend so we can all taste & decide! Please tell us when & where.

I'll give it a try. We had Prime 3 in Leesburg and had a great bartender there and the steaks were pretty good. Pricey though.

My wife tells me I should do that for my retirement side gig. I'd probably enjoy it, but making drinks for 5 or 6 friends doesn't equal serving a bar full of snarky curmedgeons. I give credit to the bartenders because while I can make a good cocktail, I don't know how good I'd be under pressure and that busy.

Love Mark's meat...................no posts, you know what I mean.

I have zero tolerance (on myself) for drinking and driving........so I have water there.
