I hear that NYCFG went to the Cottage a few months ago and was never heard from again. Apparantly he went went to the back of the kitchen to blow a busboy and ended up as the next day special – hence no posts in months.
RIP you gay, nip loving foodie!

In the early 80’s I used to frequently eat at The Cottage on 77th street and it used to be a nice, quiet restaurant with very polite waiter/waitresses. Thus, I am familiar with this place. In the past ten years, however, it has become a “COMBAT ZONE” between clients and the staff. The staff’s attitude is, to say the least, ABUSIVE. Last time I was there, I observed a party of 6, where one of the guests asked for more wine and the waiter/waitress COMPLETELY ignored the request. After trying, at least, five times to get more wine, the client requested to speak to the manager. The response was shocking, the woman behind the counter yelled “There is no manager, period.” That was that!

While their food is good, I stay away from The Cottage since I am already aware about the staff’s lack of decency. I am afraid nothing can be done about these people’s behavior, except avoid the place.

It’s a shame the staff of The Cottage has created a toxic environment. However, what irks me the most is to think that this kind of behavior spreads.

I stand corrected, Your Honor. Regardless, it’s box wine. The King should be grateful that he was not given the opportunity to poison himself on that toxic waste.

haha what an honest statement, asian fatty (i don’t think i’ve ever seen a fat asian, but i’ll take your word for it that you’re fat).

asians are supposed to be hard-workers, willing to go that extra-mile to satisfy their patrons. happy endings are a perfect example.

I would totally do dinner. I don’t think NYCFG would want to put his rep on the line and risk being seen in public at that delightful table of 4 though.

I’m glad I made you laugh but I am no joke. Why don’t you, KOK and I all go meet up for dinner at your favorite UWS establishment. NYCFG can come as well! That sounds like so much fun, does it not?
