Still think Matt Levine, owner of the Eldridge, is a shady character? How's this for holiday cheer. We have just received an invite from the man himself for a special Thanksgiving complimentary champagne tasting at the Ridge. What a guy. Seriously. After blogger Brittany Mendenhall gave his cocktail a sub par review, and DBTH suggested she go to champagne school, ("...come on. It's Armand with gold flakes. Let's respect the cocktail here"). Matt has jumped in to save the day.
We are so excited we can barely stand it. Toasting some of the people that we are most thankful for with champagne at the Eldridge? This is going to be the best Thanksgiving yet! Click below to read what the email said:
