There was a sign out front advertising sazeracs, which is why I went in. They must use some terrible house recipe. I saw some people ordering absinthe and the bartender was lighting sugar cubes on fire.

That's the exact wrong way to make a gin martini.

Occasionally a vodka can benefit from shaking, to lower the proof and make it extremely chilled. Gin doesn't, you just like ordering it but apparently not the taste.
