1 hour ago, Eatmywords said:Yea, often comes down to laziness and whether the wine is worth washing stems over. The stemless are also great for water, soda, beer and cocktails. Maybe a psychological aspect too. I don't have the same expectations of the wine because they remind me of the vin de table water glasses than the stems.
As for Schiller's, what a great place and time for that area. I drank a lot of wine from those cups. Thanks for sparking.
But even for water, soda, beer, et al. I find that I have trouble holding stemless wine glasses...they're just clunky in my hands.
Sometimes the wine glasses (with stems) go in the dishwasher; other times no. That all depends on what else is in there and if they'll fit into the load.
I miss Schiller's greatly, especially its early days. They had a fantastic host, like the best host in the whole city; he could fit seven models at a 4 top. Gorgeous crowd (early days, once again), gorgeous girls and boys working as well. Just about perfect, as you mention, for its time and place. Keith was nothing if not groundbreaking.
