Bar or restaurant. I have 5 years of waiting and management experience and very good behind the bar. I'm very knowledgeable in old school new orleans cocktails. I make all drinks from scratch. No pre mixes. I do everything from menus to money to locking up. I'd like casual or upscale casual. No fine dining.

Not going to go into reasons why other than I love the city, but what are some places one should apply to. Good money is a plus, but also a good healthy environment is important. What restaurants/bars/hotels should I look into working at.

Sounds like quite a day. I wish my guy did stuff like that! The only thing that could make that better would be to stay the night at either the Monteleone or Roosevelt... I know it's spring break and they've got great pools! I'll have to share this with my man.
re: Need a new Go-to place

idk why or what all has changed internally, but it's not the same staff,and that's what we noticed and aren't too excited about.
i think they're going for the T&A (titts and arse) approach from now on. but i liked the staff before. they always knew what we wanted and were really cool. food's not my fav, but the atmosphere is high on my list.
i've been to the londoner a few times now and it's alright. something is always wrong with our order. but it is a cool place to just sit at the bar for a while.

Need a new Go-to place
Posted by Fluer De Chic on 8/6/11 at 4:55 pm
So we've been going to the chimes east as our go-to place for drinks and apps for several years now, but apparently it's going through a lot of changes. All of our favorite people are gone, and I'm not a huge fan of all the new people. Maybe I just don't like change. So now we need a new place to frequent. Something on the southeast side of br. Not too expensive. Good drinks and apps with a cool atmosphere! Suggestions, PLEASE! We don't mind venturing outside the area.

they seriously smoke inside? isn't that illegal? i'm happy with eating at the chimes late at night or waffle house seems to hit the spot. i give the place a few months. this side of baton rouge just isn't open to new things like that. and smoking makes me sick as is.. but having someone that owns or works there smoking INSIDE the dinning room is absolutely sickening. i won't even try it.
BIG FAIL.
BIG FAIL.

re: Londoner and wait staff
Posted by Fluer De Chic on 3/23/11 at 8:12 pm to AZBayouBengal07
Yeah the wait staff is hit or miss. I has this one guy once and he was super friendly and helpful and really knew his stuff and that was right when they opened. I love love love the burgers, but it's like going to burger king... I like burger king better than mcdonalds, but I only go to burger king when I feel like putting up with mediocre service. Except that one guy, I loved him! Oh and I agree, their chips and salsa are really good! The place just feels kinda creepy and incomplete. I keep going back for that damn delicious burger!!!!!

I think there are legit reasons to send food back, but to get through that much food and demand it be taken off of your bill is kind of shitty. If you think it might be bad or something is seriously WRONG, then have it taken back and get something else or if it's so bad, make sure to let the kitchen know they're selling shite and most places will be willing to work with you if it was bad. If you send something back because you don't like it or it wasn't what you thought it would be, then you're dumb! And an arse! You ordered it, it's not the liability of the restaurant if it's not 100% to your taste.

re: BR restaurants/bars with the bitchiest/rudest bartenders or waiters
Posted by Fluer De Chic on 3/2/11 at 2:09 pm to Ed Osteen
its not so much that i waited for her to take my order... i go all the time, i'm not a total idiot! although 9/10 times i go they write it down. the point was that she purposfully IGNORED us even after we had been waving our tickets around like "heyyyy i've got an order fo youuuu" (not literally spoken out loud).
it wouldn't have pissed me off as bad if she wouldn't have ignored us. i work in the service industry and if the kitchen was closed, she should have jsut told us that upfront when we CLEARLY were wanting to have our order put in and she was CLEARLY ignoring us.
i mean come on, you're a bartender... ask if i want a drink, and if your kitchen's closed just tell me so. but all in all she jsut sucked.

okay i'd have to say georges! idk if this girl is really a bitch or just inept to work in the service industry. first of all, they stop serving food at 11, so i made sure i left work early enough to get there to order. so she ignores my friend and i, doesn't want to take our order, so we decide to write it down ourselves. as we try to get her attention to get our orders in (still not exactly 11), she finally acknowledges us and says "kitchen's closed" and walks away. i'm like WHAT THE HELL, the digital clock behind you says it's not 11 and yall are packed. why the hell would your kitchen be closed? that's so dumb. but whatever. got me a margarita and moved on. i got a top shelf margarita, same thing i get all the time. never had any complaints till this girl made my drink. let me just say that i'm a light weight. one drink, i'm well buzzed. so i'm expecting to drink my margarita and feel good enough to just head home and sleep reaaaallll gooood. well... i left that night not even with the slightest buzz. so i close out my one drink tab and it's an $8 drink, understanable if it actually might have had some alcohol in it! i said hmmm i didn't realize it's $8 for sweet and sour?!
THENNNNNN my friend closes out her tab and her change is $6. this girl and my friend are both pulling the ends of the money. like my friend is grabbing for her change and the bartender was i guess pulling for her tip? so as my friend is literally pulling her dollars away the girl is like "thank yall so much" with not the slightest smile or emotion on her face. gee, thanks. finally, my friend say "well i guess just give me the 1 and you keep the 5"
what a witch! i work in the service industry, so really i just require the absolute least amount of service.. but if i can't get even that little bit, then i'm upset. and i'll still go to george's, cause i'm not upset with the place, but i'll be sure to never waste my time on this same girl
