My buddy's 5 word drink advice about that canceled mixologist was dead wrong
Last spring a bartender friend told me to skip the new spot by the old skate park because the owner got canceled for faking charity donations. He said their cocktails were still worth trying. I went, spent $58 on two rounds, and both drinks tasted like melted popsicles. The owner came back two months later with a whole apology tour, but the quality never came back either. My friend still defends his advice saying it was about the concept, not the liquid. Has anyone else trusted a pal's take on a canceled brand and ended up eating the loss?

about the concept, not the liquid" is the oldest excuse in the book. Went through this with a taco place my coworker swore by after the owner got dragged online, and the food was mid at best. Lesson I learned: if you're paying full price, judge the actual product, not the story behind it.
