After reading Behind Bars, a no-holds-barred tell-all in the spirit of Kitchen Confidential, you'll never look at your favorite bartender the same way again.
Ty Wenzel offers a raw and clever account of slinging drinks in New York City on the Bowery before and during its renaissance. Wenzel, now thirty-six, has just thrown in the towel after a decade at the swank Marion's Continental Restaurant and Lounge--a gig that was supposed to be a temporary escape after corporate burnout, but instead, like with most bartenders, took over her life. Honest, clever, and often scathingly funny, this memoir at once offers outrageous tales, the dirty little secrets of the trade, and inspired commentary on bar culture and the human condition. Wenzel's candid stories of life behind the bar covers everything: sex, money, celebrities, the tricks mixers play on you to get you to stay on that stool, how to jumpstart your own bartender fantasy, that all-important tip . . . and how pink drinks like the Cosmopolitan are ruining civilization. Behind Bars is also a riveting narrative of Wenzel's life outside the bar, which is complicated by her Islamic background, her drive to save enough money and get out of the life, and the ultimate realization that the grueling lifestyle that is driving her crazy is also something she has grown to love.Binding Type: Paperback

Looked beautiful
The merchandise was what I needed. The delivery was not accurate however. The order was dropped off 3 apartment doors away from where I live. I had to guess where it was after the emailed delivery notice.

It works
Manageable to dress in, and pre-tied relieves the burden to tie it on manually every time.

Very happy with purchase. Great value, looks and quality.
These shirts are incredible value for the money. The fabric is of fantastic quality, a nice thickness, not see-through (appropriate for work/office attire), stretchy, breathable and wrinkle-free. And it isn’t flimsy like you’d expect in dress shirts in this price range. The colors are just like the images - accurate. The Shirts feels and looks far more expensive than the listed prices here. I like these so much that I ended up buying 8 of these in different colors. Definitely recommend these !
Note on Sizing: I had first ordered the AI-recommended L size, and although I was able to wear it, it was hugging my body, and figured that it would fit me well IF I was in perfect shape. If you have a few extra Lbs like I do, or if you like a little bit of room in your clothing, I’d recommend a size higher. So I ended up returning the L and ordered the XL. So if you’re slightly out of shape, go with one size higher. If you’re in good shape - these run true to size.
