For a cocktail I ordered an Orange Drop, which was listed on their Specialty Drinks menu. The waiter replied, "Orange balls?". Um, no.... Orange Drop. He said "oh ok!". I should have known something was gone awry when Brian was served his beer and I simply got my water glass refilled. But when our appetizer came and I still didn't have a drink, I reminded him that I'd ordered a drink which I hadn't yet received. He looked at the ticket, apologized, and in a few moments, I was delivered of my Orange Drop (which wasn't as good as I'd hoped and certainly not up to the standards of a David's original lemon drop!). So then our main courses arrived and, well, you guessed it.... I was served... orange balls AND the entree I really had ordered! We did get it straightened out, and the food was GREAT, but we never saw our waiter again after that, until finally after about an hour I flagged him down and asked for our check. (P.S., for those of you with vivid imaginations, let me clarify that the entree of orange balls appeared to be the shells of two oranges, filled with something that looked like meat and noodles!). Glad all is going well for you guys!
