Me: I'd like a Manhattan, up.

Waiter: What vodka would you like with that?

Me: ...

Me: Why don't I just go to the bar?
Oh. Dear. God.

The bartender just brought me a Manhattan...

And a glass of vodka. A GLASS of vodka.

Apparently, the waiter told her I wanted vodka.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IS HAPPENING.

(The actual Manhattan is good though.)
Ordered a Manhattan again, same hotel bar. This time, it came out and was so appallingly bitter that I asked the waitress what the drink was.

I later found out that Vodka boy, from the first night, was behind the bar because the regular bartender had gone home sick.
Poor @KathyKenzie_ ordered a Limedrop, FROM THEIR MENU, which was basically a lemondrop, but with lime. It came out and, as far as we can tell, was just lime juice.

I wound up ordering a scotch (Oban) and she went with white wine.
