The G Manifesto

Base of Operations (restaurant that you have on lock down)

Importance…conduct biz…..get the red carpet rolled out for you when you are with girls….etc

The first thing you must do with a Base of Operations is to find the right place. You’re going to want to be here at least 3 times a week, so having it close to your house is important. It should be high-end but not too high-end that it’s stuffy. You want a place that’s suit friendly. If you don’t have one of these restaurants in your neighborhood, then you need to move where you live. It’s important to play up the ethnic angle. If you’re a blond German guy, then a place that serves strudel and schnitzel might be good. If you’re Cuban, then a Cuban bistro is perfect. Italian trattoria’s or good French brasserie’s always work.

Locking the place down

You first want to go on a Tuesday or Wednesday night (Fri and Sat are very hard to lock down, and Monday night they are still serving the seafood from the Thursday delivery). Roll in solo and suited down (hand crafted Italian suits are best). Start by sinking your hooks into the bartender. He is the hub of the restaurant. Grease him pretty heavy and find out information like who the owner, chef, owners wife and Matre’d are. If the chef and the owner are the same person, then your job just became easier. Make sure you get the right bartender…not the one who works Tues night and Sunday brunch…that’s not your guy. You want the one who works Tues, wed thur fri and sat nights, the guy who runs the show. Then get the owner, chef, owner’s wife and Matre’d on lock. You want the kind of status where they call out your name when you walk in and give you two kisses on the cheeks.

Now start bringing in business associates in so they know your promoting the spot. Make sure you handle the bill (even if you have to collect money from the slobs you rolled in with, this way you come off as the juiced up money man). Now start bringing in girls with you. Different types: blonde so cal girls, fly Latina girls, rich daughters, Cajun girls, exotic dancers, and Hungarian gangster daughters….even fly in model girls from south beach. This will exploit the symbiotic relationship between Restaurateur and G Manifesto practitioner. The Restaurateur will love having a well dressed gentleman with a fly girl sitting in the bar when people walk in and you’ll love the off-menu dishes, pro-bono drinks, and discounted bills. The side benefit to this is the girls you are taking will be very impressed considering the last date she went on, her boyfriend took her to Chili’s for the Mushroom Jack Fajitas. Now your turning her on to Sicilian Pesto Crepes or Rollmop de sole farci au ragoût de homard, kohlrabi cuit à l’étuvé au Riesling, réduction au Côte Rôtie………………. which is, of course: Rollmop of filet of sole stuffed with a ragout of lobster, Riesling braised kohlrabi, Côte Rôtie reduction. Mind blowing. Plus, your expanding the horizons of many “culturally challenged” girls by showing them the two kisses greeting.

Keep the wheels greased

Take care of the owner: give him a Zippo or a nice cigar every now and then, and a good bottle of booze around Christmas time. Never cash for the owner. Cash for the matre’d, hostess, and bartender.

Now you have the run of the place. You can now use the place to leave or receive messages, exchange envelopes of money, plan a jewelry store heist, or figure out how you are going to deliver votes to a politician. You can also use the place to work on side projects like backroom poker games, loan sharking, bookmaking or labor racketeering. ……The Rest is Up to You.

In Vegas, always stay at top notch hotels with top notch restaurants in the hotel (i.e. The hotel at Mandalay bay with Alain Ducasse’s Mix, or Wynn with Daniel Boulud’s Brasserie). Eat a late dinner at the restaurant with a 4 star chef. The reason beyond the obvious is simple: The Vegas Battlefield is won and lost on two questions, “Where are you staying?” and “What did you do earlier in the night?” Knowing this is the case you want to always win this battle. This helps you establish how much juice you have. The girl will probably say she is staying at the Aladdin and ate at the $11.99 buffet, and you say you have a suite at Wynn and ate at Daniel Boulouds spot. This is a perfect segway to talking about how Daniel is one of only five 4star chefs in all of New York and you can talk about how you know Philippe Respoli from NYC. Then you can start talking international about how you have a crib in Monte Carlo and how she really needs to visit St. Bart’s’ and would she fly with you there some time. Basically, now you have established that you’re an international playboy. At this point, all you really need to do is light the girls’ cigarette before yours (with Zippo) and let her use the bathroom before you and your home free. The rest is up to you.

Side tip: Pace yourself in Vegas…..this is not a 1:30 last call town…..you need to make it till 6am or later…….

(Above tips are best preformed in a hand stitched custom Canali suit with a purple Canali shirt, Purple and white Canali tie and purple Canali pocket square)

FOR MANSION PARTIES WITH FREE DRINKS. (BECAUSE FREE DRINKS TAKE AWAY YOUR LEVERAGE WITH BUYING GIRLS DRINKS AND FLASHING A BIG ROLL OF CASH.)

—-ALWAYS SHOW UP WITH 2 BOTTLES (I PREFER EXPENSIVE SPANISH, CHILEAN, OR ITALIAN WINE) TO ANY MANSION PARTY. FIRST OF ALL, ITS NOT CLASSY TO SHOW UP EMPTY HANDED. WHEN YOU WALK IN…EMULATE THE “DR. DRE SHOWED UP WITH A GANG OF TANQUERAY” FROM THE SNOOP DOGG VIDEO . THIS WAY ALL GIRLS WILL BE ABLE TO SEE THE CONTRASTING INTERIOR OF YOUR CANALI SUIT AND IF YOU ARE PACKING A SNUBED NOSED .38 REVOLVER OR CROME-PLATED QUATRO-CINCO. NOW YOU DON’T HAVE TO DEAL WITH ALL THE SKIPPYS IN GASLAMP SHIRTS TRYING TO GET FREE DRINKS AND YOU CAN JUST MACK AND POUR AWAY AND HAVE CONVERSATION PIECES LIKE “THIS IS PENELOPE CRUZ’S FAVORITE BOTTLE OF WINE” ETC………..THE REST IS UP TO YOU.
