The next week after the Polish Sharapova let me beat the P up I was on a second date with guess who…. that’s right the bitchy Bosnian from my failed attempt at threesome (read here). Our supposed first date was easily the worst date I’ve been on in the last two year, YUUUUP, that bad, it deserves post of it’s own someday. But I blamed myself and doubled down. I had her and one of her friends come over to my pool for a swim, kept up on the texting and trying to get her out, this chick was tough. I asked her if she liked Italian food, told her that I know a little place in Arlington, my got to G spot for Italian food.
Now I consider myself a little old school but I could give a fuck what new celebrity chef from whatever cooking show just opened up a new trendy restaurant. I think “Asian Fusion” is an abomination. In Vegas I’d rather eat at an old diner or lounge that Frank and them used to grab a bite at than wherever the newest Wolfgang Puck restaurant opened up. Every man should have their own G spot that go to dinning place where you can take a date and know the conversation, food and atmosphere will be just what the doctor ordered. This is how you should be treated when you come through the door.
Now when it comes to my Italian food G spot I have to hit up Tutto Bene in Arlington. The dark red walls, the paintings, the cozy seating, It’s a basic slam dunk for a romantic meal. But the best part about it, for the past four years I’ve been going there, it’s almost always empty on a Wednesday or Thursday night. Back in the day it was the talk of the town, well reviewed and written up in most local pappers. But now with the newest thing upscale celebrity joint opening up it’s almost a ghost town. You come in late around 9 and it’s as if you’ve rented out the whole restaurant for this one date. I love when my little old Italian grandma-ish lady is working the hostess stand because by now we’ve built up that perfect banter that lets my date know that this is my spot. I get greeted with a warm smile sometimes even a hug and asked where have I been, or it’s been a while. Then she follows it up with, “you’re usual table” and sits my date and I at the small table right next to the window. The wine list is more than affordable with bottles starting as low $22 or $32.
By the time we finished our appetizers, a full order of the Clams Casino, Bitchy Bosnian was gazing at me with this dreamy look. With some old school Italian crooner singing about love and murder suicide in the background, the Bosnian truly appreciated her surroundings. Her cold exterior melted, and with each bite of our meals and sip of wine we stumbled into our connection. She said she doesn’t remember laughing as hard with any other guy since she’s been here in America. By the end of the night we were making out in my car like star crossed teenage lovers. Now that she’s on the roster things are about to get interesting when her friend that I slightly hooked up with and speak on the phone with once a week (slut pants) moves to DC in the middle of July.
Moral of the story gentlemen, find yourself a G spot. That one go to restaurant that’s never crowded, has a very discrete wait staff, preferably family owned or operated and is actually affordable. Once you’ve done this don’t just take any bimbo or turtle there make it the place you take only select clientele. Think of it as an investment over the years. I know lots of guys are against dinner dates but I love good food and I love women, when ever I have a chance to bring both of them together, it shall be done. If you can’t find your own G spot use mine and be sure to send me over a bottle when you see me with a bird or two.
old school might be on the way out. but at this spot you’re the top dog, which you wouldn’t be at the new Cold Asian Fusion spot.
Agreed. Dinner dates are not necessarily bad WHEN USED IN THE RIGHT SITUATION. They are not the first option for everyone though.
Also, many folks consider $32 for a bottle of wine a lot of money. Too many blogs focus a little too much on spending $0 on women. You have to know when the bend that rule.
The Rookie,
You’re right at other “hot spots” there’s too many distractions.
Some Guy,
I have a post coming up on “Rules” but as far as spending money on women go, if YOU yourself like the wine then it’s spending money on enjoying something you like… right?
Well said VK. Those authentic cultural spots are money. Conversation flows, and good things happen…
Il Bacio on Blackstock Road in Highbury. Or anywhere in Italy, done that too…Greece has good food.
” if YOU yourself like the wine then it’s spending money on enjoying something you like… right?”
EXACTLY! It’s fucking retarded thinking about the stuff guys go through trying to obey “the rules” even if they would enjoy doing whatever. If YOU like grey goose, and SHE likes grey goose, and you’d get it anyway, Great!!!! Get it for yourself and invite her.
If YOU like sushi and she likes sushi. GREAT AGAIN!!!! Unless you’re so poor that paying $15 for her sushi dinner would put you in the poor house, fuck it pay for her damned caterpiller roll, jesus christ. If that $15 is that important to you, you need to get a fucking better job (show REAL value instead of ACTING like you have value).
If you’re enjoying the thing, then what’s the big deal? Can’t wait for the “The Rules” post..
You are becoming more likeable because of posts like this.
Life is for enjoying and generous company such as yours helps a girl enjoy life more. It’s when people expect or don’t see generosity is when trouble starts.
Excellent advice.
