If you're like me, and you should be, you love this time of year because it is the time of year for...the patio...and the drinking on the patio...and the friends and the drinking on the patio..and soon 12 hours has passed and you are still on the patio and it's 2am on the patio...and they are asking you to leave. I went to Bardenay a couple weeks ago and basked in the sun, drank champagne, and enjoyed the beauty of Coeur d'Alene and the water. Although I wasn't there 12 hours, I could have been, it was so comfortable. I'm off to Bardenay again this weekend...to do pretty much the same damn thing.
I recently had a chance to spend a night out with two of my best friends and talk about old times. We decided to meet where we always meet when we want to reminisce, Twigs. Twigs on the south hill is the perfect place to bring a date, take the family for dinner or just hang with friends. The girls and I love our martinis and Twigs has many to choose from. You will find the atmosphere appealing with a charming bar area that has a fireplace for the winter and an alluring outdoor patio for the summer. The food is fabulous. I recommend the quesadillas. If you get there in time for Happy Hour enjoy discounted martinis, beer and a great menu. I suggest you make Twigs your next night out. The only thing you will fret about is which one of the delicious 38 martinis you should order!
The Blue Spark is a great place to hang out with friends and have a beer or something a little harder. You have the backside of the place to hang or if you want a little more excitement stay up top in the main bar area. Last night we hung out, had some beer, and had just a plain old nice time. Lots of people to entertain and it doesn't hurt that the bartender is smoking hot! :)
Last night at O'Doherty's we were actually sitting at the bar talking about what a fun place this is. I have frequented this place on several occasions and I had yet to see someone sing on the bar counter to add their dollar to the walls. Last night I got to see 3 different people in a row. It was fun and the whole bar got into it and cheered for them.
Yesterday was my favorite holiday, Cinco De Mayo. Cinco de Mayo commemorates the Battle of Puebla, in which a ragtag group of Mexican fighters soundly defeated the French army on May 5, 1862. But in modern times the day has become a time to celebrate Mexican heritage. I decided to celebrate at one of my favorite Mexican restaurants, Rancho Viejo on 57th, with a nice cold margarita. Ok, maybe two. I met my friends there around 5 and the place was already hopping. That did not stop my beloved bartender Jose from handing me my Rita on the Rocks on cue. They know me by name there. Happy hour is from 2 to 7 and you get Mexican Beer and Margaritas for only 3.50. That is a price that is hard to beat! You can find a full sized bar with plasma television sets which is great for GU games. The service was fast, furious and friendly even with the overwhelming crowd. It was a great night with scrumptious food. Thanks Rancho for helping me live the la vida loca!
