After reading Behind Bars, a no-holds-barred tell-all in the spirit of Kitchen Confidential, you'll never look at your favorite bartender the same way again.
Ty Wenzel offers a raw and clever account of slinging drinks in New York City on the Bowery before and during its renaissance. Wenzel, now thirty-six, has just thrown in the towel after a decade at the swank Marion's Continental Restaurant and Lounge--a gig that was supposed to be a temporary escape after corporate burnout, but instead, like with most bartenders, took over her life. Honest, clever, and often scathingly funny, this memoir at once offers outrageous tales, the dirty little secrets of the trade, and inspired commentary on bar culture and the human condition. Wenzel's candid stories of life behind the bar covers everything: sex, money, celebrities, the tricks mixers play on you to get you to stay on that stool, how to jumpstart your own bartender fantasy, that all-important tip . . . and how pink drinks like the Cosmopolitan are ruining civilization. Behind Bars is also a riveting narrative of Wenzel's life outside the bar, which is complicated by her Islamic background, her drive to save enough money and get out of the life, and the ultimate realization that the grueling lifestyle that is driving her crazy is also something she has grown to love.Binding Type: Paperback

Ideal para espacios pequeños y con estilo
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel, Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
Como muchos saben, los apartamentos en Estados Unidos suelen ser pequeños y con poco espacio para guardar cosas. Yo tenía algunas cajas en una esquina que no sabía cómo esconder sin que se viera desordenado hasta que encontré este biombo, y fue justo lo que necesitaba.
Me encantó porque además de tapar lo que no quiero que se vea, le da un toque bonito y moderno al área. El color negro combina con todo y se ve elegante sin ser llamativo. Es liviano, fácil de mover y guardar, y lo mejor: no ocupa mucho espacio cuando no lo estás usando.
También me sorprendió que se siente firme y bien hecho, no es de esos biombos que se tambalean o se ven frágiles. Ahora tengo más privacidad y orden en casa, sin tener que hacer grandes cambios. Una compra sencilla pero que hace una gran diferencia. ¡Lo recomiendo!

Easy setup

Very simple to put up. No assembly required. Just take it out the box and you're done! Also I thought it would be heavy. Very light and easy to move😊
