Partner responds "Let's go get some then!" Walk in and restaurant was packed. Partner asks to be seated just for cake. Host says he can't seat us just for dessert. Partner mentions we will be drinking $1,000 bottle of port with said cake. We got a table pretty quickly!
That's a great story!
My boss made me work late one night and then offered to buy dinner "downstairs" -- at Morton's. I'd never had dinner there, just drinks, so he had them go through the whole spiel with the steaks for me. It was great compensation for a tough evening revising spreadsheets. Too bad I didn't have to work late that often!
And yeah...that cake was so to die for! My boss told me specifically to save room for it...just heavenly (the cake, not the boss)!
