We came to the St. Regis to catch the sunset and mourn the final night of our trip. The sun may rise in the east at least it's settled in a final location...
My homie, Rig, bought the 5 of us a round of Clase Azul shots at the bar for my birthday while we waited for a table. We were like "DAMN OK RIG YOU'RE LIKE THAT!", but I think he was a little toasted as I had been making some STIFF tequila drinks at the house before dinner ahahaha. I've never seen a man sober up so quickly in my entire life when that bill came. It was like he just got kicked in the liver or found out his girlfriend was cheating. Pure shock.
I think he thought it would be like $40-50 a shot but he had no idea it would run $100+ a shot ahahaha. We all tried to pay him cuz we felt bad, but he stood on business and said it's still worth it. Great friend... but honestly after writing this and digesting the moment I just venmo'd him for my portion cuz I need to be a good friend too.
After the Clase Azul debacle, we really dug into the menu before sitting and decided to eat somewhere else, but this place is still beautiful and we truly did enjoy our time at the bar watching the sunset. Those prices just would have left my pockets on featherweight ahahaha. It was like $30 a drink and $45 a plate which I can only imagine would be mouse food and this big dawg needs big dawg food...
But I really just need to make more money. I mean it is the St. Regis, what were we expecting lol. I'm tryna get like y'all! Hey Siri, play "Till I Get There" by Lupe Fiasco.
