      I actually worked next door as a fellow bartender. This guy was SUPER nice, an absolute professional, and chatted with my coworkers and I as he got us drunk before our shifts :p
      He did enjoy making the drinks enough to be there for decades with his brother I believe. He also gave my friends and I life and barkeep advice which has been invaluable.

    I love how he has such a quick eye for which glasses aren't quite full enough, and he can quickly scoop amounts from one glass to another without causing much mess. He moves the glasses without any fear of them falling or causing more spillage. It's pretty cool and you can tell he's worked there for æons.

      Sunday early they serve a wonderful breakfast. The place is very quiet. If you over indulged Saturday night. Have their light and lovely hangover cure Gin Fizz. I managed a restaurant named the"Tulip Garden in the middle of the block 728 Beach st. So I had a few Irish coffees along the way after closing my place.

    • @LynnHarrod
      @LynnHarrod 3 роки тому +6

      Agreed. That final pour across is a masterstroke of bartending. It's what people remember and what keeps them coming back. All the comments here about him "wasting" coffee don't get it. The show, the presentation, is just as important as the product. It's what separates legendary joints from your garden variety bar.

    One part of the ritual that's missing is when he fills the glasses with hot water first, in one long sweep like he does with the coffee. After a minute or two, he dumps the water out, two glasses at a time. He then proceeds with the coffee.
