I had forgotten, but I ate one Vlasic kosher dill spear after going home but before my Wolaver's. I was reminded doing research on Wikipedia as to what cornichons are! Trivia fact: not corn. Also not a kind of sausage which was my second guess after little corn.
I made a similarly well-tuned review of Solas. It was the closest bar to Otafuku, so it won the lottery. On Monday nights at 8 PM, they actually shut down most of the satellite rooms, and just have a small crowd of older locals at the bar. We also discovered that the table we sat at contained a drawer, which in turn contained a number of cocktail napkins on which drunk girls had written extremely earnest messages many months prior. May I quote one of the napkins? "WATEVA!"
Anyways, I feel pretty bad that I gave Solas any money to stay in business. Specifically, six dollars for a pint of harp and a dollar tip.
The only 2 times I have been to Solas were for my co-worker's parties, at which I saw guest food reporter Schoboats' girlfriend Alice. The parties were very nice even though I didn't know many people, but apparently every one else who has ever been to Solas hates it.
The chief issues with Solas as Lorinza and I were able to observe them are:
1) Sometimes it is full of the kind of girl that is not pleasant to be around, and is easily heard and seen from a distance.
2) Everything within the bar creaks and aches with a pervasive absence where the soul of a bar should be.
Sorry I left you out, Cap.! I didn't forget you, I just didn't have as many lengthy conversations with you about Solas and its badness.
