The water glasses were tall and thin. It was all very tippy. The combination of tiny table space and tippy glasses meant that it was impossible to eat, drink or move without causing some sort of spill. The very first spill belonged to Banawoman - that glass of ice cold water spilled right into my lap!! BRRR! I actually jumped up and said, kinda loudly, "You did NOT just do that!" which of course brought all the waiters running. They fixed it all up in mere seconds, transplanting us to the adjacent table without a hitch. Then the rest of the evening we averted near-disasters by catching the glasses as they began to go over. It added a nice touch of excitement to the evening.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149585684469790767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1872521732024534925.post-35732996442055800902011-03-27T17:23:23.903-04:002011-03-27T17:23:23.903-04:00Awesome review!
