And they're good wings - nice size and cooked properly.

And I love staying at the old stately Raphael----it's more Euro than anything else, and a lovely building. Good wine and spirits store there now too. Cellar Rat, I think it's called. Great selection and a thoroughly wine geek owner.

I noticed that you use the term “mixologist” for what I, and most regular Joe’s, call a bartender. The last thing I would want to do is offend a bartender by calling them a bartender. Is that no longer acceptable? I know we are not supposed to call a butcher a butcher but is it no longer correct to call a bartender a bartender?

Different drink, Hoke, no question (and much to my preference). I've always heard it called a "perfect" Manhattan, myself, and that strikes me as the "perfect" name for it! Out of curiosity, what are your favorite straight ryes? Rye used to be the default brown liquor around my neck of the woods, but those days are sadly gone.
