Wow looks good. Always dreamed of opening a café that includes European patesseries. And have a manual espresso shot maker (better shots)rather than the SBux automatic espresso machines.

I baked few cakes on my own, including a tiramisu. The best I made was a Hummingbird cake.

I've baked one cake, but with my mom. Eggless pistachio cake. Was really good with Chai.

I like baking cookies every once in a while. Like the precise work. Plus, warm cookies.

That sounds really good. I have yet to master French Macron. My wife bought me a kit. Hopefully it will turn out good.

A lady friend of mine makes killer macrons. Rose flavored.

These are good, but it's hard to catch enough hummingbirds to really get the flavor. Those suckers are small and fast.

That reminds me at my last trip to NY, I was near Teterboro Airport in Jersey into the Holiday Inn, next to the hotel was a gas station and a fast food diner. Man, I cant believe that I was totally fixed on original Dr. Pepper, no matter what the food says

Anyway, fresh made fruit salad...have some any1?

PoorLurker · 09-18-2016, 10:48 AM

Went to a restaurant
Asked for available seating
They said come back in an hour and a half and they will know if they have any seating
Went on a ride (disneyland)
Came back in an hour and half and saw people waiting
so I asked the hostess if there was an established line and she replied no.
Manager came out and said, "there are three "tables" available" - mind you no limit on size
hostess basically overlooked the person who was waiting the longest because I had arrived and checked in an 1.5 hours earlier.
The older couple who got turned away who were waiting looked a bit upset so I asked them to join me and my wife.

Ended up hanging out with a pretty interesting guy who told me some great stories about different career paths from restaurant owning, sunken ship discoveries and ultimately ending with being an engineer for a nuclear fusion company.

TL;DR - Got a table at a restaurant when I shouldn't have and invited an older couple who got screwed out of a table they should have gotten to join me and my wife. Ended up being a great dinner with exciting stories!

This is so cool. I roll the dice and do this on occasion and have nearly always gotten a cool dining companion(s).

I had a strange experience into DC, went up to an italian restaurant near my hotel. Got first led by a guy through the whole location included the kitchen, than placed onto one of the free tables, received the diner, blablabla.
Whats real disturbing: After finishing of eating the waiter comes up to ask if we wont some more to eat and drink and as we decline, he comes quickly back with the bill and shows us the door after paying.
That was felt as very unpolite...but normal into US? Just asking...

Maybe you forgot a tip ? => https://www.tripadvisor.com/Travel-g...Etiquette.html

Dang3r · 09-18-2016, 11:11 AM

Noo, he'd earned a really good tip, slightly above of the mentioned rates. The restaurant wasnt also really queued....no idea

Maybe we should give it another try next time.

That's their restaurant "theme". Enter through the kitchen, to rooms that looks like an old-school italian restaurant. Waiter's are supposed to be somewhat "characters" to provide an experience.

I've got some interesting stories about the one near my house. Waiter claimed he "spat" in the food when it arrived. After the waited brought the bill out, he claimed to have farted and left.

Kinda like Ed Debevic's in Chicago. The restaurant is known for the rude/colorful waiters. Foods also good. Kinda pissed they closed down on Well St. Hopefully they open up somewhere else.
