26: Feeling Fat?

St. Regis New York, Joseph Drouhin Wine, Corrupt Service Practices

An incident at the St. Regis in New York involved a waiter repeatedly attempting to serve a lower-end Joseph Drouhin Pinot Noir instead of the specific "Laurène" vineyard bottling ordered. The hotel manager later admitted the restaurant was plagued by corrupt practices and significant financial losses. The segment concludes with a call for a "one-star taco truck" rating system for high-quality casual food.
