So right around the corner from our hotel is a wine bar called Oregon Wines on Broadway. We thought, hey let's go get a glass of wine and a cheese plate before our dinner at clarklewis.
So we get there, and there are only two seats left at the bar in this really small place. On my left was a woman who was sitting cross-legged on the stool, totally invading the space to the left and right of her. So we squashed in, and waited to get waited on. I looked over, and it was as if she was a wild dog. There were bread crumbs, cheese fall out, and shit spilled all over the bar. Jesus Christ - who taught you to eat?? Wolves?? I just wanted to punch her in the head from the moment I walked in.
And there were only two people working there, and it's very labor intensive to serve all those samples to people - um...hire more people. So we ordered a flight, some cheese, and some Marcona almonds - which I was REALLY in the mood for.
Strike 1 - "We are out of bread, so I can give you crackers?"
Strike 2 - Never brought me my Marcona almonds.
Strike 3 - The lovely older couple who came in and sat next to us were very nice but the amount of perfume or cologne they had on made Chris's eyes burn.
We were so crabby by the time we left we just came back to the hotel...and now Chris is watching Argo while I write this and we wait to leave for our dinner.
If you are ever here...SKIP THIS PLACE.
