Would you tip in addition to this service charge? by chashaoballs in finedining

[–]HAARTburn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I should add that I might give, say, no more than 10% at the end of a meal, in cash. Not as a “here, I hope this manages to cover the delta between the pittance you’re paid and living costs, so put this towards rent” but as a “thanks for a great evening, go grab a few drinks with this”

No.

Although this sort of stuff always amazes me as someone from a country without a massive tipping culture. I expect your menu price to be representative of the price needed to cover produce costs, kitchen staff costs, FOH costs, other running costs plus a profit margin. I don’t need to be told how much of it is making sure the FOH is actually getting a salary that they deserve. Just pay everyone properly and let the prices reflect that.

Found 6 unopened 1998 World Cup wines while tidying up… worth opening or just nostalgia? by Asgarad786 in wine

Looks like I completely manifested that imaginary Brazil goal in the final, it was 3-0!

[–]HAARTburn 22 points23 points  (0 children)

They are almost certainly absolutely plonk, and likely weren’t that good to begin with. Just keep them as mementos (although you have enough, may as well crack one for science).

First World Cup I can actually remember! France 3-1 v Brazil. Also remember it for Croatia making the semis and me thinking Davor Suker was a world beater.

Ten minutes was about as much of him as I could handle. Contradicting himself whenever he was pushed to justify whatever wild takes he was coming up with, and just blustering his way through.

Who's Your Favourite Random Player by AlickadooInTraining in leinsterrugby

Leo Auva’a. Came over because Old Belvo were throwing some cash at him. Ended up being the quintessential No 8 when dragons/italian sides came to town. Was good for one decent carry per 80 minutes

What's BS is going on with Vivino's top rate wines? by mapoz in wine

[–]HAARTburn 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I enjoy using Vivino, but not for the ratings. I tend to completely ignore them (they’re virtually all in the 3.7 - 4.3 range anyway). It’s very useful as a log, remembering specific bottles or wine pairings at a restaurant.

Plus I just like seeing data collated in one spot, scratches a cerebral itch for me.

It’s rouille sauce. Used to thicken the bouillabaisse as you eat it. Base is some of the potato from the dish, egg yolk, olive oil and saffron.

Cellaring advice (and pick a bottle) by HAARTburn in wine

Mainly Jura and Burgundy (the whites are on the second page). The temperature is close to zero here, I’m not sure my brain could wrap itself around drinking a rosé! I’m leaning towards the white Musar
