    Every place I've worked in the last few years, when the waiters cash out at the POS , their numbers are entered into a spread sheet that distributes percentages to bartenders, busboys, runners plus the credit card carrying charges are deducted also. This seems to be standard these days. s

    If you're shopping for selection, Wide World of Wines. If you're shopping for price, Calvert Woodley.

    You can skip CP. Shitty selection,, overpriced.

    In college I was a fan of Pointillism.

    When I was a kid (50+ years ago) the family used to go to a German restaurant called Voorst's near the Bowery. I cant find any mention of it.

    I worked with Alain at Jean-Louis at the Watergate. Such a nice man.

    I had a very enjoyable dinner at St. Anselm last night. Service was outstanding right from the start. The delicious biscuits are a great way to lose your appetite. We had king crab leg, beef tartare, oysters. All very tasty , except the oysters. They had shrunk on the grill and were very small. For a mid course we shared the salmon collar, which was enormous and beautifully cooked and seasoned. For main, I had the NY strip, a good steak done perfectly. Creamed spinach was creamy. Don't miss the mint chocolate chip ice cream for dessert. I was quite surprised to see a packed restaurant on a Monday night.

    Cleveland Park no longer has any "fancy" restaurants. Plenty of mediocre places, though.

    Menu and wine list were smaller than usual.

    Vace is close by where I work. I tried to like their pizza. Maybe its the sauce. I was similarly unimpressed with their meatball sub.

    I always thought it was like grandma on acid.
