Your absolutely right, my mistake. its 10:16 in the morning and i was up at 5 so, sorry.
However, to continue about my trip to NYC...
Well we have visited another one of the old and best German restaurants.

The second review ... just ignore it. I ll explain why.
We got there about 8 pm, let me just quickly remind you that we were there on a bachelor party and that day we started to drink at 11 am or so. Anyways, so we get there at 8 and well these guys donât do reservations so we couldnât call ahead. My friend Richard (the guy who is getting married) runs in and tries to get us a table outside while me and Don(our friend) smoke some buds. While standing outside (weather was perfect, in mid 70s) we noticed a large party of what i like to call kids. These were 22-24 year olds douche bags from Cape Cod (MA). How did we figured out they were from Cape Cod. Well we live in the same state so we can tell.> < Plus they were bitching on how Cape Cod was good place to live and blah blah. The condition of these kids..... Well let me put it this way. None of these kids could of gotten laid that night, totally trashed. They had the 2 liter boots of German beer and well they were behaving highly inappropriate for the atmosphere. They were wrapping up to leave and well Richard thought it would be a good idea to stand right behind them so we can get their spot right a way when they leave. After about 20 minutes of standing outside and half a pack of camel hard pack those fuckers finally left. We got the very serious vibe that the owners didnât like them one bit.
So we got a table and ordered some beers and few bottles of vine. Since none of us ever been in German restoring... we really didnât know what to order, but we knew Germans were famous for their sausages and after meal snaps. We ordered the compilation platter for 3 and some chicken dish. Amazing! The sausages were very good. Donât ask me i have no clue what i ate. lol So the after dinner comes and we ordered following STROH Original 80
http://www.stroh.co.uk/stroh/stroh_original.htm#80. Stroh is a rum. Comes in 40 60 and 80 proof. You can imagine which one we drank. It comes in a shot glass and well drinking it was surely close to insane. There is no way i could of shot this just like that, so i ve ended up sipping it and so were my friends. When i was young and stupid i used to drink 151 Bacardi straight up. Well this is 160 and there is no way i am shooting that. The smell of it itself is enough to knock you on your ass. Anyways, as we sit there and eat and drink Stroh, 2 women sat close by to us and we all started to talk, just randomly lol. One name was Rie and the other was Meg. Rie actually lives across the street and Meg is her best friend from 4th grade. Amaizing women and fun to talk to. So much down to earth. After we told them we are from Mass they got even friendlier. So as we continue talking to them, another couple came in and sat behind us and started to talk to us hahahaha. Jakie and Tom i think their names were.  We found out random info from them as where they were both from and how they met and all that jazz. Next thing you know, our waited comes up with a tray full of Stroh shots! Then he says.. Surprise!!! So 4 of us, 2 women on the left and a couple on the back of us ended up pretty much moving tables together and drinking. The best part was.... the waiter actually joined us! He sat down with us and drank and just talked
 Again, this was an outside patio and as people walking by and looking at us, laughing and stopping to say hi.
Amazing time! Thank you Heidelberg restaurant, Stroh and Franky (the waiter)
