by Dwayne Paulson on caroline y's review inspired me to stop in and check this place out... i have passed by it several times on my way home from the train... and have been curious about it.... any place that walks away from a request for a "jagerbomb" or "kamikaze" is A-OK by me... (there are far too many pubs and sports bars in the neighborhood that support that sort of behavior) so, around 7ish last night i swing in. dark, cool vibe. tunes swank, mellow and appropriate. a first pass of the cocktail menu left me thirsty. so many decadent libations to choose from - ranging from 10-12 bucks a pop. standard for manhattan. i am thirsty for somethin brown and classic. a rye or bourbon perhaps.... i inquire with the bartender (whom i found to be quite a gentleman in fact) for a recommendation. gold rush is on his list, and was one that caught my eye. gold rush it was. i was presented with a cocktail that was deliciously made and well presented. satisfied, i ordered another round. recommendation? an old fashioned. again, pleasant and delicious. at $12 bucks a pop, i ask for my tab - seeing as the offerings were deliciously dangerous.. i could easily sit all evening and walk out spent. 'tender says, that'll be $12 bucks then.. i saaayy-wha? it's happy hour - 1/2 price drinks till nine..... well, in that case - i'll have another... and another. i mentioned sweet carolines review to my fair 'tender. told him it was her review that inspired me to stop in... we had a laugh. so... i have found my new neighborhood joint to stop in when i am feelin' thirsty on my walk home from the train. 1/2 price - high end - appropriately made - classic cocktails - absent of the kiddie drinks - in a mellow relaxed atmosphere is my kind of joint. thank you caroline. (note: if you are looking for jag, or pucker, or soco, or anything of that calibar... this joint doesn't even have it on the shelves so feel free to walk on by.)
