Simply proves that TIAD is alive and well. Too many taste/judge by
price... if it costs a lot it must be good and if it costs little it
must be bad... I find that rule absolutely false... especially of
restaurants in the high rent district

Crystal Palace is very nice, 3 ozs in a tall 22 oz glass with a wedge
of lemon filled with ice cubes then topped with Sprite and the magic
ingredient, a Tbls of maraschino cherry syrup. I've tried Crystal
Palace straight shots too, no different from the high priced vodka,
only straight vodka is not an enjoyable drink to me.
