text: nn South is open for business again When did this happennnA friend and I stopped in for a drink and checked out the band and two singers for a bit I really liked the female singer she had lovely strong vocals and danced energetically along to the song I only heard her sing once and her other partner sang to the style of Frank Sinatra my friends favorite for the rest of the time we were there nnI decided to try the mojito while my friend ordered a Miller Light The bartender with big blonde hair and a very ample um countenance handed me my drink after a few minutes and had to ask what my pal was having again While she retrieved his bottle from the fridge I tried the mojito I wished I had not It was VERY HEAVY on the mint syrup I am used to drinks made w muddled fresh mint but if she had used a light hand on the syrup I probably would not have minded I had asked if she would redo the drink and she said sure but not wout showing her dissatisfaction She returned w two glasses the revised drink and leftovers from the original should I want to have more alcohol As she handed him his beer he gave her his credit card to which she SHOUTED back a What do you want to do with this He was so taken aback he had repeated the question and almost retorted back an apt response but decided against it just to help speed the transaction along nnIm just glad that my companion enjoyed the jazz accompaniment bec I felt so bad he had to pay for that terrible mojito drink which he had me abandon after taking a photo of it Lesson learned Just like with food menu selections I should find out how they prepare their drinks I really did think that a nice place like this would not cut corners and use such saccharinsweet syrupsnnnnJust received an email from Iolanda who wanted to clarify that na South only serves Bud Light Our bad My friend did order a Miller Lite but did have to settle with a Bud lightnb South does not use mint syrup only fresh mint and simple syrup Whatever they used it was very heavy with toosweet syrup So bad was the experience for my friend that he swears never to try another mojito again Not even one made by yours truly ask the people I served at a party months ago I can make a decent mojitonc She swears her credit card statement went What do you want me to do with this Go shopping Sorry sweetie but my friend and I both disagree In the end my friend paid for a lousy drink I had to abandon and you still received a tip bec my friend is still a gentleman nd Our bartenders name is Iolanda
