The Rape at Red Sage
I was getting hungry, so I met up with the rest of the gang and we went
looking for a nice place to eat.
We found "Red Sage," a snooty-looking steakhouse place, one block east
of the White House.
The placed seemed OK, a little too trendy for me.
My salad was some green, leafy matter stuffed into a slice of cucumber.
I asked for Ranch dressing, the guy fucking LAUGHS at me and says,
"We only serve vinegarette and some french
crap on the salad."
I kept waiting for him to say, "Just kidding."
Nope.
Fine, bring me the salad dressing I don't want...
Your tip meter just started running, Napkinboy.
This was such an expensive restaurant, they didn't even have salt and
pepper on the table.
When I asked for it, Napkinboy mumbled something under his breath about
me "challenging" the chef.
Hey, fuck the chef!
For $45 dollars a plate,
I should get oral sex with my dinner.
I ordered the "Cowboy steak," which was the only thing on the menu that
wasn't callimari
or pecan-encrusted breast of red-quail. AFTER I ordered the steak,
Napkinboy explained
it was a bone-in Ribeye, ...and how did I want it cooked?
You can NOT trust these Snooty chefs.
If I'd ordered it "rare" or "medium," it would've come raw. So, I ordered
"medium-well,"
hoping the 150K chef would have the brains to know how hot his oven
was, but nooooooooooooooo.
It came burnt to a f-ing crisp.
There was more I could tell you about Red Sage, ...but you get the general
idea, right?
Then, when the bill came, I looked it over.
F-ing crisp "cowboy steak" was $35.
Margarita was $8.50.
Tuna, extra-extra-rare was $35.
Black, warm Zinfandel was $8.50.
Pecan-encrusted red-quail with Agnew sauce was $30.
and there was an extra $8.50 for ...what is "...GZNHT?"
I didn't remember ordering any kind of "GZNHT."
I asked Napkinboy about it, he said that was for my sneeze.
Napkinboy gave me "Gazundtheit"
afterwards.
Now, I don't care what ANYBODY says, charging only $8.50 for Gazundtheit
proves this place has CLASS!
The bill for the three dinners was $148.80, I threw the son-of-a-bitch
a hundred and a fifty.
Napkinboy says, "I'll be right back with your
change."
I said, "No, that's for YOU, Cubby."
Napkinboy got a tip of $1.20.
It's my duty to fuck with the snooty.
...and I left him a handful of bartcop.com cards.
