Saturday night, Beauty and I left the New York City limo services for a while to go out to dinner in my favorite neighborhood, The East Village. Where the west village is very wine and cheesy, conservative and touristy, the easy village has always had the punks, the crazies, the rock “n” roll and the cool atmosphere. We wandered into a joint called MARIONS on the Bowery. As we waited for a table we stood in a perfectly dimly lit Bar/Restaurant. Warm, cozy welcoming and rock n roll. The bartender made the perfect screwdriver. How so? She filled the glass with Vodka, and then squoze out a few drops of O.J. By the time Our host,Owner Richard sat us down(I admire any biz owner who still works the biz, like I still drive), we were well on our way to where cocktails are supposed to take you. It seemed all the pretty waitresses had tattoos on their shoulders. Vintage music played all night. The candles lit the table perfectly. Beauty’s burger platter was toooo much (how cool is that?). My veggie ravioli was perfect and I think the waitress heard that we would split a Caeser salad, cause it was perfect for two people. In short we loved it all.

ALL we do is work. When we don’t work, we think about work. For a few hours, we forgot the work and enjoyed ourselves and allowed a good time to seep in. For my wife Beauty to say , “THIS IS GREAT”! is a times worthy review. We fully recommend MARIONS and I will tell all my clients in my New York City limo services that this is a New York City memory they will never forget.

Of course it felt weird, CLYDE, THAT'S THE POINT!!!!!
That's what appealled to me, which is why I wrote the review.
You're not supposed to wonder why they are prancing around,
You are supposed to wonder OTHER THINGS!!!!!!!!
Would you really rather have a woman in a white shirt and bowtie wearing chino's wait on you rather than those sleek chicks with tattoes and cool clothes wait on you? Should they all put on bras?
Loosen up man, You can get pasta and Steak served the "right way" , anywhere. Have a martini and let your mind wander. Perhaps here

ok, next
I had dinner last night at a weird chinese restaurant.
I wont name it as I don't want to be NAMING NEGATIVES.
Half the menu was filled with nuts, cashew, prawns, walnuts, and i am allergic to nuts.
the food in general had no special taste at all, the appetizers, dull and bland.
the air conditio0ning was on full blast on top of us so when the main course came, it was cold by the time we ate it.
The fried rice was so bland that I wanted to send out for chinese food.
the only reason we liked the fried duck is because at least the frying gave it some taste.
the atmosphere was boutique, yet the music was U2-Springsteen-coffee house-beatles, no theme at all,
waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy over priced for all of this,
sorry i'd love to name it , but i'm not about that. I name the good ones only.
and food is so subjective.
