Still my favorite place for all things food/drink/sports? Hell yes!
A quick 4 block walk and we've arrived. Our preferred seats at the bar are open and ready.
And WE are ready for the Patriots vs the hated Ravens.
I'm getting the day started with a Bloody Mary, spicy, thick, and strong and loaded with Skerry Pickles, delish!
If you need more info on Skerry Pickles, here's a link, they are great!
HG is having a Margarita, equally strong and yummy.
Both are made by this awesome dude. Honestly, we love this place for a lot of reasons, the food, locations, etc... but this guy is a big part of why we keep coming back. Happy, nice, funny, great to talk to, terrific drinks.
I'm talking about the Jack-a-lop, obviously. Michael is OK too, I guess...
We aren't enjoying it today, being a Saturday, but they have a pretty good Hoppy Hour you might want to try...
We are here for the brunch, and then some. Meaning maybe a burger, etc..
But first we start with the Smoked Duck Wings, with house made chile pepper BBQ sauce.
Uhmmmmm yeah,
I believe, just by their appearance, that they are smoked first and deep fired after. And yes, Duck!
The standard offering is sauce on the wings. I requested it on the side because I feel the flavor of the duck is masked too much by the sauce, but the sauce is great, so I want it to. I want to alternate bits, in the sauce, and sans-sauce. HG wishes that we just had'em like they make'em. Git your own next time HG! Have'em your way!
What a great day!
The game is on and it's time to make a toast!
I am all about the whiskey/Scotch these days, so when I need to crank up my bloody or beer, this is what I'm turning to. Collier, from what I remember it was really nice. Smooth and flavorful.
On to the Mac-n-Cheese
Add lobster for $2? Stupid question, YES!!!!!!
All the fried blobs on top are lobster, and there is so much that it coated the whole top of the Mac. And, honestly, I don't remember what it tasted like, but I remember it being cheesy and I remember that i liked it, so get it!
Next on tap, to soak up all the alcohol we're drinking watching this GREAT GAME, is the burger. Meat Love Burger, as listed on the menu to be exact. The bacon was awesome and the meat in the burger was juicy and delicious. The fries are always hot, crispy, and delicious. Comes with house made ketchup also which to alternate between Heinz is good. For me, with every bite, it's a bit heavy on the smokey flavor.
Soft and buttery brioche bun, super melty cheese.
YEAH!!!!!!!
As the Pats head down the field to complete the clobbering of the Ravens we try another whiskey and set back to enjoy the victory.
