Grazie a tutti gli Yelpers italani anche se non capisco bene l'italiano ancora. Questa era la prima volta che mangiavo con un gruppo italiano cosi' grande e mi sono molto divertito (anche se non ho parlato tanto).

I'm not a diva. To be honest, I don't have the energy for it. Also, I'm a dude, though I don't think that disqualifies you from being a "diva" in this city, even if the correct word would be "divo."
It's all very complicated.

I can't help but think of Harry Potter when I see a beautifully shaped bottle of St. Germain. Like drops of veritaserum, I must speak the truth when that sweet elderflower flavor touches my lips.

When I was a kid, I was told that if you flushed the toilet and said "Bloody Mary" three times over, she would appear in the mirror and, I dunno, challenge your honor or something. That seems like a sad legacy for Queen Mary. Luckily for her, she is…More »

There's nothing quite like a fresh perspective on something known. The view from Wix's balcony of 22nd and Mission is impressive, like seeing an old and familiar friend naked.

The flavor blast of Cahill wine in my mouth made me feel a little guilty. Could such smooth and delectable alcoholic flavors possibly be virtuous? Then I remembered the blood of Christ was essentially wine... so I went for a second round.

A great store that's all about San Francisco. And they know how to throw a great party! The Yelp+TIMF+San Franpsycho Pop-Up Party was a blast, with Templeton Rye, Fernet and that crazy vodka that comes out of a crystal skull. A great looking crowd…More »

I really loved the Navarro wine selection.

When I heard they were opening a "Sazerac Emporium" near my hood with $8 Sazzies (I'm starting this slang now), I was excited. And, having had a taste of it from a generous Yelper, I can say that Mr. Lew's Win Win Bar makes perhaps the best I've had…More »

I don't do things halfway. With me, it's all or nothing. I don't even like the world "half."

One day, when I'm ridiculously rich and good looking, I'm going to come here and buy all the delicious tenderloin and drink Makers mint juleps all night.
Then I'm going to buy Ruggy, Monica, and Tiffany red sports cars with speed stripes.
Very cool event in a really fun space. And walking through the Presidio at night was a beautiful moment to reflect on why I always get lost.
I'm a big fan of the following:
- Bars with a faux-risqué, classy vibe
- Paintings of hot women
- Honeydew melons
- Maker's Mark mint juleps
- Yelp
- Clean bathrooms
- Kittens

In retrospect, I may have thanked the Makers Mark folks a little too much for sponsoring this event. But there's nothing like a couple of Old Fashions to give you a nice Southern drawl and a moseying swagger.
