Scotch Sour from Lee Wing Wah Restaurant

Item Purchased: Scotch Sour
Location Purchased: Lee Wing Wah Restaurant / 2147 S. China Pl. / Chicago, IL
Price: $4.00 + tax

Review: When a menu has mixed drinks listed for $2.75, you don't ask questions. You also don't chance ordering something from the bar that is not on the menu. Anyone who has ever worked in the restaurant business will tell you that the price gouging happens there. What I didn't expect was my drink to cost me $1.25 more than the menu proclaimed.

Still... a four dollar scotch sour in Chicago is nothing to complain about... Especially when the glass comes filled to the brim and as strong as I would have made it at home (i.e. no sour, less liquid)

Though I find it a bit shifty that my check charged me more than the menu said, I am not going to begrudge Lee Wing Wah for a $1.25 difference.

Yes, I know it was crappy plastic bottle scotch they served me, but for a weekend afternoon drink during a late lunch of Pigeon, I'll chalk this one up to learning experience.
