| The bottle behind my drink says, "If I give you a quarter, will you give me a Pickle Back?" I died. |
Bar-hopped with Jess last night. Hadn't seen her since before I was home for the Holidays when we went Xmas shopping together. It was great. The Winslow, the bar that made the drink above, infuses its g&t's with the "essence of the gin". Makes for pretty drinks, but the rose buds are not edible (I tried. Thought they were pom seeds...). The second one we had had pine and lemon in it. It tasted like the PNW.
Also, hit up a bar called Swift, which was too insane for the two of us (I mean, it WAS a Saturday night...), but apparently its a great bar on a weekday. Then we got Jess' fav slice in the city (supes yum!), and headed to a bar Jess said was crazy Seattle-like. It was. It was called the International Bar. Total hole-in-the-wall, heavy pour, crazy dive-y, grungey bartenders. Mecca-like Perfection.
THEN I went to another bar that a friend of mine told me was owned by Seattleites. They had The Stranger! And sold Tim's! So, obvi, I felt right at home (and bought a bag of jalapeƱo chips). Good times.
Yay! Curing me of my boredom! Doing NYC things! Hanging out with Jess!
