Walter Foods has Watery Drinks but Amazing Food

I love this place. I do. I dream of the short rib burger. The warm beet salad pretty much continues to be the best I've ever had. The Pig in a Blanket, genius. I've been here a handful of times. I've also brought friends with me and have gone at respectful hours. Ya know, I thought I was building up a rapport. HAHO!! I was wrong. Don't be fooled, these guys hold no allegiances to anyone. I totally got the shaft on seating when I went in the other day with my accomplice, who had also been with friends on several occasions. And it was a pretty obvious 'fuck you, don't expect favors from us you bitches' or at least that's how it felt. We were a 2 top. We asked for a booth, which was open. We were told 'no', because we all know the story. But there were other 2 tops at the booths and there were other booths open. I also have to add that it was like 6.30, not even prime time right? So we're trundled of to our shit table when ho, wot ho! another 2 top walks in and is put right into a booth. What am I supposed to make of that? I mean, I know I'm a fusspot but, what the fuck. So, I haven't been back since. I guess they also got a little fancy and a little cocky when BKN celebs started coming by like some peeps from Franz Ferdinand and TV on the Radio. It's still kind of a bad idea to make your bread and butters feel like the alligator doesn't want to eat them. Know what I mean.

The joint is helmed by one of the 5 million people that was involved with Milk and Honey somehow and is now opening their own fronts with all of this mystery cash when everyone else is shutting down...hmmmm, so you would think that they would have amazing cocktails. They're not the crazy bartender beats them within an inch of their lives. Believe me, I have tried several of the sames and differents on many occasions.

Regardless, I can't get that short rib burger out of my head!! One more chance Walter...
