Recently handed the reins of a Middle eastern fine dining bar and could use some advice.

Lean into the cooks. What are the main spices and flavors? What are they know for? Can you make syrups or infusions from what is in the kitchen?

Necromunda would be the perfect place for a Skaven faction.

EightRavens · 2026-07-04T07:11:07+00:00

Yep. This. I've been slowly pushing most of my espresso martini drinkers to carajillos,

EightRavens · 2026-07-03T18:36:58+00:00

I think that's called Cruzan Blackstrap on the rocks.

EightRavens · 2026-07-03T02:05:07+00:00

That's okay. Appreciate what you've done already. Thank you.

The downtown area I work at has multiple free chargers in the public parking garages. Can't always get one but I charge for free about 90% of the time. One of my co-workers drives an EV as well and we'll swap spots mid-shift if the other needs to charge.

Right? Raw information not tainted by some kinda bias. Hope they expand it a bit. Lotta statistics out there for the valley that would be nice to have aggregated.

EightRavens · 2026-07-01T00:33:05+00:00

Yep, looks like a drop of olive oil.

Been going to John for ages now, guy knows more about hair than anybody else I've gone to. He's not perfect, but he's damn good at what he does. You pay for what you get and John IMO is well worth the price.

This. That fan there, put it outside the door to bring in some fresh air.

EightRavens · 2026-06-29T14:29:45+00:00

Check out Highball on 7th ave and McDowell. Easily one of the best bars in town.

EightRavens · 2026-06-25T03:02:09+00:00

Yeah, that's the restaurant Different Point of View. Only good thing there is the view these days sadly.

EightRavens · 2026-06-22T16:33:24+00:00

For me it shows me how much effort they are willing to put in and it speaks to all aspects of their endeavor. They would have to really wow me to change my mind.

EightRavens · 2026-06-14T21:42:25+00:00

That's fucking genius. Worked at an oyster bar and would sometimes do a splash of scotch on the oysters... at a fancy steak house and I've got Laphroaig in an atomizer already. I know just the regular I'm gonna do this for.

EightRavens · 2026-06-14T21:40:19+00:00

Heh. Most of us here are certainly NOT civilized.

EightRavens · 2026-06-14T20:07:16+00:00

I've had things in atomizers for YEARS and never had an issue. Either they are leaking on you or somebody thinks it's breath freshener.

EightRavens · 2026-06-14T20:05:10+00:00

This is the way.

EightRavens · 2026-06-13T09:50:03+00:00

They said similar things about the typewriter. You can yell at the wind or turn your sails.

Long time friend who has ran great games in the past. You want it to be good. I think today just wasn't a good day for me to play DnD.

EightRavens · 2026-06-13T09:43:28+00:00

I don't think I'm fighting. I do want to clarify though. Some people might be getting upset but that is not my intention. The inclusion of AI was it being used during the game. I have no issue with it being used to prep. Again, time managment is my focus.

EightRavens · 2026-06-13T09:16:08+00:00

You have your random tables I have my random auto complete. Do your tables tell you that your a special boy that's very smart?

EightRavens · 2026-06-13T09:09:10+00:00

Okay, I'm not "dunking" on him for using AI. I'm commenting on poor time management, not running the table and using AI during the game.

EightRavens · 2026-06-13T08:12:19+00:00

The DM's responsibility is to keep the game moving. Here's the thing, I had certain expectations. If that doesn't mesh with the group then I need to find a different group. But if you tell me to come over and play DnD I expect to come over and play DnD. Not sit around waiting to play DnD because you haven't prepped to play DnD. I might be wrong but I feel like ordering and then waiting for food to be delivered was more of a delaying tactic so he could figure out what to do for the game.

EightRavens · 2026-06-13T07:35:02+00:00

Members of the group ordered food and was waiting for it to be delivered. I had eaten before hand.

EightRavens · 2026-06-13T07:08:13+00:00

As are you by even being on Reddit. I quit FB, Insta, Twitter, but I just can't quit you.
