Watch out for "Scotch"--there's a brand sold here called "Scotch" that has a label very similar to Dewar's White Label's label. Very hard to tell apart if you're sitting at a bar, looking at the choices on display; it'd peel paint off a car. Some bars use it as their house brand (decent bars will use White Label as their house brand). Chivas, JW Black & Dewar's White Label are readily available at most bars. Best pour on the island is the bar at Richard's.

Oh, oh...Dewars, bad evil. Sorry Ruth, I'm, a JW guy. Ok, you're s'posed to be laughing now.

I drink only JW Green Label, or nothing at all!

I belive when Ruth writes "nothing" she means "vodka", because clear liquors don't count.
I'd vote for Cardhu, but lately we've been a Glenmorangie household here.

Duty free shop would be my guess for cheapest Scotch Jon.

Seb, almost right--I was just talking about the scotch family. If there's no Green Label, then I'll move on to vodkas (cape cods & lemon drops!)...and if it's a school night, there's always beer.
;-)

Best meals:

Casablanca (if you're abstaining from meat, don't bother!);Lost Penguin (never had a bad meal there; b-fasts especially tasty); China Nobo (reviewed by NY Times!)

Worst:
There was some sort of Mexican restaurant outdoors that used to be next to the Zeezicht complex. I don't know if it's still there or if it's been renamed. It was expensive and it tasted like it came out of a can. But I got a carved wooden parrot thingy in my margarita! It still lives on my desk at work.

Sorry- wrong post earlier. Meant to be under "Best/Worst" food. I am hungry and distracted -- my mistake!
