Yeah, for all I know it was a bit of marketing BS to sell the place, but Phil and his Dad were enjoying telling stories about his time at TV's so it seemed legit. if nothing else they were both great guys to listen to talk about the old days. And I liked the Sling and Mai Tai more than the ones I had at the London TV's last year so the "original" recipes seem better.
