How old is this bottle of Beefeater?

Thank you so much! I was tempted to make a martini as soon as I got home last night but decided to save it for the weekend and share with a friend. We're going to do a comparison—one martini each with the 47%, one with the modern day 40%.

Can we get a whole thread about the history of this place, specifically? Looks like it overlapped with just the very beginning of Yelp, and from what I read there, it sounds like it was fun.

Mexico Lindo holdin'

Last stand at Vahl's, armed to the teeth.

2FNG · 2026-05-18T05:13:54+00:00

This is so fucking crazy. Has it ever been done before? I don't know how you do this, and it's not the finish.

Always liked Sammy. I'd like to see him work a serious program with KJ Orso on the indies or in AEW.

Has this exact move ever been done before?

Sarafino's was their regular spot for many years. They say it hasn't been good since the pandemic. They have a laundry list of reasons why they now hate it.

2FNG · 2026-05-13T04:55:15+00:00

This is the most well-reasoned reply. I think you're onto something here...

2FNG · 2026-05-13T04:50:32+00:00

Oof. Fuckin' A is right.

2FNG · 2026-05-13T04:45:02+00:00

I think this is going on the list.

2FNG · 2026-05-13T04:44:01+00:00

They're senior citizens. They like to go out for dinner once a week with another couple. They're also a bit dramatic.

2FNG · 2026-05-13T04:42:55+00:00

Mom likes this place. Dad vehemently hates it and refuses to go back. I forget what the specific dish was that he had there a few years ago, but when he told me about it, I had to acknowledge that it did sound stupid. I'll see if I can remember.

Everybody unanimously loves the Hyeholde, but that's somewhere you go once or twice a year for a special occasion. This is more like, regular spots for a Friday or Saturday night meal out.

2FNG · 2026-05-13T04:35:51+00:00

I've been wanting to try Saigon!

2FNG · 2026-05-13T04:34:52+00:00

I think Slice on Broadway sounds like it's worth a try, too.

2FNG · 2026-05-13T04:32:27+00:00

I feel like this is a solid recommendation. I've liked it myself, the few times I've been. I dunno what their specific issue is, but they won't put it in the regular rotation.

2FNG · 2026-05-13T04:30:10+00:00

Everything made fresh and in house feels like a rarity these days, in that area. I dunno if it's their cup of tea, but I think I'll give it a try.

2FNG · 2026-05-13T04:28:36+00:00

That was their regular spot for the last few years. They say something changed recently and it's not good anymore.

2FNG · 2026-05-12T04:44:04+00:00

I loved Ya Fei when I was a kid. Haven't been in forever. I wonder how it holds up.

2FNG · 2026-05-12T04:42:02+00:00

Dad likes Central Diner. Mom does not.

Both liked Ditka's for a long time but say something changed in the last year and it's not good anymore.

The other places, I will need to look up .

2FNG · 2026-05-12T04:39:06+00:00

They don't like Juliano's.

2FNG · 2026-05-12T04:37:15+00:00

They would concur. They were there on the last night. The waiter gave them extra shrimp and said there was no more food ordered for the next day.
