My bachelorette party was Sat night ... wait till you hear what happend! :( Long story
After the roller coaster that was friday .... here's what happened Sat. night ...
We were scheduled to have dinner at 8:00 at Mangia e Bevi in the city - 53rd and 9th ave. I was looking forward to this for a month!!! We had a reservation for 13 and checked in early after confirming the res. the night b/f.
If any of you have been there, you know how small it is .... especially by the bar area. Well, we were all there waiting and it was crowded! the 'owner' as he claimed he was, was yelling at us to leave the bar, that we couldn't stand there. Everyone was getting annoyed b/c there was no place to stand & wait & we wanted drinks.
At 8:30 I asked how long it was going to be for a table, that we had an 8:00 res. and we had somewhere to be. First he tried to say that he didn't have our res. but the other idiot said that he found it. Finally, 15 min. later, they were setting up our table.
I come over to check it out and he's putting 12 people around a long table that would comfortably seat 8. I said, NO WAY! We wanted the extra table, which he had, that we couldn't eat that way.
SO ... he tells me 'that's it! I've had it w/you and your friends .... we're not serving you .... you better find someplace else to eat' I flipped
!!!
After arguing for a few minutes, I said how this was b***S***!! and tossed my drink onto the table. As I reached for the second glass ... he grabbed someone else's drink ... a vodka/cranberry ... off a table ... and threw it right in my face!!
At this ... I'm stunned ... screaming ... and being helped out by my friends who witnessed it all. He says he'll get the cops & I said ... YOU GET THEM HERE, NOW!! My sister is calling them to report and assault & they show up in minutes! THREE CHEERS FOR MIDTOWN NORTH PRECINT!!!!![]()
When the cops showed up, they went to find him & this goon was hiding in the back of the rest. They were marvelous! Calmed me down, took my name & wrote said that they would file a report for me so I could go out w/ my friends.
Meanwhile I was soaked, I had spent $50 0n a makeup trial & my clothes were stained from the drink! I was trying to hold it together ... my girlfriends were the best! Found a new rest. had a fantastic meal & a great night out at Metro 53. They were fabulous there. Treated us so well!
All's well that ends well, I guess, but we need to get back at him!!! We'll file a claim in small claims ... but I think I need more! How can I get the word out about this horrible ape & what happened? I'd like everyone to know about this!!!
PS ... I'd also like to get the fire marshall in there ... it was such a nightmare, anyone out there w/ those connections?
Thanks for letting me vent .... again!
