Here is a conversation that I overheard at Bar Gema this morning.
PATRON: Antonio! Gimme an apple juice.
BARTENDER: We don’t have any apple juice.
[Pause]
PATRON: Then…gimme a beer.
Well…at least he can tell his wife that he tried.
SAL DeTRAGLIA's VIRTUAL TAPAS BAR
Above average home cook, published humorist, endurance athlete, former ex-pat, recovering attorney, doting husband, dedicated dad, non-Italian speaking Italian-American, and endearingly lousy ukulele player. It’s all true. It’s all Sal. This website (www.saldetraglia.com) is my outlet to inform and entertain, on both the personal and professional fronts.
