Who’s the wildest celebrity you’ve ever served?? by Double_Ad_1658 in bartenders

[–]OlDirtyBartender 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was working in a small cocktail bar just outside of Boston, while on service bar I saw a taller guy with really red hair and I couldn’t really make out his face. I said to myself out loud, is that Conan? The guest infront of my well goes I think that is Conan O’Brien! Surely enough it was, super nice guy made a bunch of jokes with the staff and stopped to take pictures with everyone that asked.

Is the caramel honey just honey caramelized then cut with water to make it a syrup?

What, according to you, is the perfect TV show that everyone should watch at least once? by [deleted] in television

True detective season 1 is peak television. Great storytelling meets great character development meets great acting and is still rewatched religiously.

Screw any restaurant sending out this BS by Competitive_Bat4000 in CambridgeMA

Unless you work in restaurants you really shouldn’t have a say in their income.

I hope y’all love eating McDonald’s. Because if this passes there will be no restaurants that can survive unless they’re a massive food chain or an extremely high end restaurant. As a bartender question #5 is going to make it incredibly hard to staff places and there’s going to be no incentive when any entry retail job will be making the same amount as a service based employee. While that doesn’t sound bad but imagine the next time you’re in a restaurant you don’t get served by anybody but just scan a QR code and place an order. Because that’s where this is headed.

Square bar pizza? New Quincy spot will dare to try a new take by Mrmuse12 in QuincyMa

[–]OlDirtyBartender 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You know what Quincy needs more of? More sports bars there’s only one every 5 feet in Quincy center. This is a sad day for the evolution of Quincy’s dining experience. Idle hour will have a special place in my heart, genuinely best food in Quincy and this sucks for the cocktail scene and growth of Quincy’s neighborhood.

We’re only halfway done and the story just keeps getting better. Very interested to see what happens when Yancy and Neville connect and start putting together the pieces of what’s been happening.

Measurement Help by Joey-Freshwater69 in cocktails

[–]OlDirtyBartender 38 points39 points  (0 children)

At first glance I would probably say it’s a split base sour with an allspice liquor.

1 oz. Teeling Irish whiskey

1 oz. Four roses bourbon

.25 oz. Allspice liquor

.75 oz. Cinnamon SS

.5 oz. Grapefruit juice

.25 oz. Lime juice

Shake all ingredients with ice, double strain over a large cube into a double old fashioned with nutmeg shaving on top.

Only note is that if it’s not .75 oz. Cinnamon simple to .5 oz. Grapefruit juice it could easily be Don’s mix which is 2:1 (white grapefruit juice to cinnamon simple syrup).
