When are you punching the clock at Ambrosia?
Wednesday through Saturday.
Why sling booze?
I’ve been in the business so long that I can’t rightfully say what got me into the business.
Libation Likes
I don’t have a favorite spirit. I view it the same way I do music; I appreciate using a variety of spirits to help express the different moods and attitudes of our customers.
Astro Sign?
Aries
Moonshine Mixture
You’d have to ask my customers. The drinks I get the most compliments from are slightly dirty vodka Martinis, lilikoi lemondrops and Caipirinhas.
Personal Poison
Recently, I’ve been oscillating between vodkas and whiskeys.
Sweet soused perks
I think the best thing about being a bartender is that I’m in a profession that generally makes people happy. It certainly beats being a tax auditor or a repo man.
Bottle Buzz Kills
The biggest challenge with being a bartender is the balance between people enjoying themselves and people being safe.
