Second, I certainly will be going back to Enoteca Drago in the future, because I think the food and wine selection is excellent, and I love the opportunity it gives us to taste Italy. And I do encourage my readers to try it out for themselves. I look forward to my next visit to Enoteca Drago.Dr. Debshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02892131332003571463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053780638267491912.post-1315932505699373132007-05-25T14:05:00.000-07:002007-05-25T14:05:00.000-07:00Dr. Debs,I am sorry that you had such a bad experi...Dr. Debs,<BR/>I am sorry that you had such a bad experience with our staff.

And I'll definitely go back to Enoteca D. and give them another shot because everyone deserves a bad night now and then--the chef, the waiters, the whole thing. I have bad days all the time and am glad someone gives me a second chance. So, I'll try that La Bomba pizza, and some more flights and hope that they have their act together on the return.Dr. Debshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02892131332003571463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053780638267491912.post-69220459930953415472007-05-22T13:13:00.000-07:002007-05-22T13:13:00.000-07:00Dr.Debs,What a shame.

They have the potential right there and yet aren't doing anything about it...and it wouldn't take much. <BR/><BR/>It always shocks me when I eat at a restaurant in the middle of wine country where the servers have no clue. The two restaurants where I worked in Mississippi had amazing wine lists and constant staff training (which I helped with). <BR/><BR/>Too bad for you, but in the long run, probably worse for the business.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053780638267491912.post-24559762278752158992007-05-22T12:38:00.000-07:002007-05-22T12:38:00.000-07:00You'd think being in a "Wine Bar" that everyone wo...You'd think being in a "Wine Bar" that everyone would have a grip! It makes me CRAZY that these events happen, especially with the price you have to pay for the wine!winedebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16891313852429967357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053780638267491912.post-5932760303730887702007-05-22T08:58:00.000-07:002007-05-22T08:58:00.000-07:00I hate it when restaurant staffers don't believe t...I hate it when restaurant staffers don't believe their customers can actually tell when something is corked. Most people don't trust themselves (partially as a result of waiters sneering at them when they say speak up) but 99 times out of 100, if your instinct says a wine is off, it's off. I believe this holds true even with beginners. <BR/><BR/>Gripes (totally reasonable sounding to me) aside, while it doesn't sound like you'll be heading back to Enoteca Drago anytime soon, if you should...try the La Bomba stuffed pizza with black truffles. It's something like $15 or so, one of the least expensive items on the menu. It's quite large and delicious. Almost worth the bad service.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
