saw some odd numbers on my fresh direct invoice this morning. called in to complain but they assured me the numbers were high due to some credit card authorization bs. so i waited and waited. my delivery came 45 minutes late and 2 pounds heavy, or light actually.
the weight on the aspargus said 2.48lbs. i had ordered 1lb. i got 1lb but was charged for 2.48. i had a similar problem with the onions in my order. fortunately, like every good cook, i have a scale handy. fuckers reimbursed me but i should have made more of a stink and got some freebies.
Okay, sure, the Guinness really is superior here in Ireland. But I have to admit I've shifted my attention a bit more to the whiskey. The bar at the Brooks Hotel has, they argue, the best selection in all of Ireland. Despite my efforts it wasn't possible to sample them all, but I took quite a liking to the Green Spot. I've never seen it in NYC, but I usually don't drink whiskey there, so maybe it's not a find. Still I might bring back a bottle just in case. Smooth.
