I got taken out to dinner by some reps last night, in thanks for shouldering a burden for them on Wednesday. It was also a chance to debrief on some product developments. Last time they were in town, I dragged them to my favorite sake bar, which was a disaster, since there is more of a “meat and potato” feel to this group. This time, we opted for BBQ.<\/p>\n

I’ve read good things about Daisy May’s<\/a>, and was not dissapointed. Thier sweet tea was totally awesome, and I think the best thing about them is that they are across the street from Landmark Tavern<\/a> one of my preferred scotch locations in the city, After getting our food, who was inside the seating area watching ESPN? Oliver Platt<\/a>. He was there with a kid – probably in his early teens? Maybe a son? Maybe a g\/f’s kid? I dunno. He was dressed all in white, and got immidiately nervous when we came in (there was nobody else there). I made eye contact, and he kinda gave this look like “please don’t ruin my dinner”.<\/p>\n

I didn’t. The two people I was having dinner with woulda been total gawkers, maybe even asked for autographs. I didn’t mention Platt to them until he was on his way out the door. IMDB tells me he has done lots of stuff, but I will always remember him as “that guy” from Flatliners, my favorite Porthios, and his role in Bicentennial Man.<\/p>\n

It was kinda a New York thing – it made me smile on the inside. After some fantastic dry-rub pork ribs (BTW, , the beef ribs here there are insane), I walked the reps across the street, and had them buy me scotch. I was good about it though, I coulda really broken the bank, and instead I opted for smooth, but not bank-breaking (especially since we had spent 30 minutes talking about economics, bleh).<\/p>\n
