For the fans of lime and dry whisky, ask for a suffering bastard... Success guaranteed !

Order non-rum drinks as call drinks. Too much fruit juice destroys a good bourbon.

Sexist homophobic bouncer. Called my gf a whore as we were leaving tonight. Commented on my clothes and made gay jokes at me. No instigation. Left at 9 sober (dd). Too bad an otherwise nice place.
