But in seeing both his former beach bar and Rancho Tipico during the good times, Ad certainly knew the ingredients as to promote a spot and make it popular.
I would imagine having many attractive Haitianas working for him was a big draw as well, with many guys preferring them over Dominicanas. But as far as his day to day dealings, his personality quirks, his temper tantrums, etc....I will gladly defer to those guys who live there and know much more about him than the little I've been exposed to. My lasting memory was on the first night of my arrival in town a few years back and meeting up with a few of the regulars, Irie, Seville, WW and a couple more, Ad served me a sambuca then lit it on fire. Once I downed that, I don't remember much after except for Irie getting me a ride back to my room and discouraging me from taking an attractive, but questionable, Haitiana with me in such a state. Good call by him because when I got back to my room, it was goodnight Irene in seconds.
If someone like Irie, Seville, WW, daddyooo, or others who either live there or spend a large amount of time there throughout the year, posts something about him, I'll place more stock in their opinion since they are in the arena, so to speak.
TBH, in that area of the beach, I'll much rather go to El Rey's Flip Flop Beach Bar instead. That is only a few shacks down from where Ad's new Punta Cana Bar is.
