Things You Can Get at the Sniffly Oddjob

  • Good brandy
  • Bad cocktails
  • Worse headaches
  • A tooth pulled
  • The clap

It’s not a place nonlocals go on purpose and if you’re there you probably took a bad turn. This isn’t to say it’s a dive: the interior’s brass and mahogany, and nobody gets peanuts on the floor. But don’t use the bathroom. And for heaven’s sake don’t ask about food.
