You're going to want a safe place to ride it out if you get one of Greg's "Special" cakes. A nice flat spot where you can hold on to the earth.

I was too busy eating to get pictures of the food, but the barrel-aged Manhattan was fantastic and the desserts were amazing. If you’ve got coin to drop, the Majestic is well worth it.
