My buddy Johnny (the bartender here at the Dresden - for the past thirty years!... Yes, that Johnny.) Well, we had a retirement party for him tonight at the Dresden. Jim, the owner gave him a beautiful painting that he bought from our resident painter, Jamie. A multitude of people who love Johnny showed up for Dresden fun with him... Prior to showing up at the Dresden, Johnny shared dinner with a group of Johnny lovers... Then, Johnny, made his way to the Dresden to an over-populated night at the D (his retirement party). I've been at the Dresden now for just over four years. Johnny is/was a sought after bartender. His charm, charisma, harshness/tenderness, was constantly enjoyed by patrons @ the Dresden. Yes, well, he would never plug in a cell phone charger, yet, he would always make anyone feel at home sitting on one of our bar stools. I have been blessed to know Johnny on a personal level. He really is an amazing guy, we are all sad to see him go, yet, his next adventure is great for him. Johnny is moving to San Diego, CA. Look out ladies!
