If it was a business lunch – maybe it was better than blowing them for the sale?

$12 for a large water? Insane.

At least it was a large water. The small was $10, so they saved money by getting a large and two straws.

I could afford the water.
Seriously, now I know the firms that are on the receiving end of the massive amount of money I sent to the IRS for 2014. It gets laundered through the US Treasury and then flows out to the pockets of the Ruling Elite, and they spend it on stuff I can’t imagine affording.
This reinforces my interest in Going Gault. If I don’t earn it, they can’t tax it.

@Stucky, there was an SF writer of some success, a guy named Phillip Jose Farmer, who wrote among other things the Riverworld series.
One of his short stories was JC on the Dude Ranch, and in pitted one cowhand who was Beelzebub against JC, another cowhand. Well, it turned out that both of them had, well, two—ugh…..shall we say—-“members,” and JC got the upper hand when Beelz was having his way with one of the guests of the ranch, who sapped him of the—ugh— ability to battle JC when the time was right.
In another story, an anthology from the Heroes In Hell series set in (you guessed it) hell, the damned generally “get what they expect.” In one story, Helen of Troy murders Satan’s secretary, Marilyn Monroe, and figures to take her place at Satan’s side. Satan smiles and lays Helen down in his bed, on Marilyn’s smoking remains, and takes her….but because Helen had figured Satan was hung like a horse….well…you guessed it.
It is in these two contexts I think of your “greeting card” for Jamie Demon.
Saturday evening, probably the worst food ever in the city. Decent wine 200$+ bad food 180$ , not worth your time. Honestly very very bad. Trying to be an Italian posh restaurant, they don’t know how pasta is looking like…. Very very very bad.

I just put Phillip Jose Farmer on my ‘books to buy’ list. Sounds like a seriously demented and weird dude, just my kind of writer. Thank you.

I ate at Enoteca Pinchiorri in Florence – once. The prices are truly stratospheric – making the food prices shown on the tab above look minuscule in comparison.
Pinchiorri has perhaps the largest/finest wine cellar in the world. We were shown through it, and there were enormously expensive bottles of wine on display, by the thousands.
I asked the sommelier “do people actually order these $25k bottles of wine?” He said there was a Russian and a few friends in a week ago that order 10 bottles of $25,000 Romanee Conti, and that they sell large quantities of the high dollar wines every night (not to me he didn’t!).
Dimon is a tightass compared to some real oligarchs.

Even money this will be deducted as a business lunch. So guess who is paying for it?

Doesn’t matter whether or not if the tab from Jaime Dimon’s lunch tab is real or not, this is how the 1% live in NYC. I’m sure he is treated like a king if he shows up at Nello’s, unlike the customer quoted above. That’s the way that pathetic city works.
I’d rather have a cheeseburger and a Pabst.
