In reality, our guests are actually paying to have their minds cleansed without having to do the washing up.
My brother works in medicine and our father always tells his friends: “My first son can heal a body, the second one - the soul”.
Being behind a bar is a big responsibility.
The ideal guest is a real gentleman or lady, not in terms of appearance, but in terms of manners.
To win the hearts of the right people, you need to be yourself, and have tequila.
