Beer and wine drinkers of the valley rejoice! Bottles is getting more variety and tastings every month. If you haven't been to their location at 3319 N Argonne Rd, Spokane Valley, WA 99212 I highly suggest it. They have a huge beer selection, some great Ciders, and more wine than an uneducated lout like me knows what to do with. They will answer any questions you have and give you ideas if you tell them what you like.
I was impressed with the selection of Northwest Microbreweries represented here as well. Even some rare finds from Rogue. A great way to spend part of your afternoon.

Many people, few dancing, but plenty of good food and drink
- Wild Sage
Adonis didnt do Bloomsday this weekend but to keep with the spirit, I ran seven miles Friday and worked up a good appetite for that night. Aphrodite and I first stopped at Zolas for a bit of after work people watching. Aphrodite enjoyed the signature Zola-Tart-Tini; Pineapple/7-up infused with Stoli Razberi. I partook in the $1.00 drafts of Bud Light as part of the happy hour. $1.00 beer is hard to beat. After enjoying some company with friends downtown, we eventually headed up to Wild Sage American Bistro on 916 W. 2nd Ave. The 9-Close happy hour is popular one with us as we enjoy a bite to eat right before engaging in whatever debauchery the night may have in store. We had the Sirloin Skewers, Navajo Fry Bread, 2 whisky sours and left with change after tipping from our twenty dollar bill. When we were ready to hear some music and dance we headed over to Uno Super Club & Lounge and Marquee Lounge. Music was good, lots of people, but nobody was dancing. The streets and bars were filled with a very chill vibe leading to mostly socializing being done. Not your typical night of dancing, but we enjoyed the people, friends and atmosphere that both places brought. These places never fail to disappoint. Tune in midweek for the Adonis plan for the next weekend. Dont forget your Mothers as next Sunday May 10th is Mothers Day!
I had the pleasure of checking out Happy Hour with friends at Lunas last night and I was not disappointed. I was thrilled to see the menu consisted of 5 dollar meals. Wow, in this economy who would not love that? We loved the pizza!! The martinis were tempting at a discounted price as were the 4 dollar glasses of wine. If beer is your thing, they have a lot to choose from. Make sure you say hi to the bartender as all the servers were more than gracious. When the sun comes out you will love the outside patio. This will be your new favorite place to meet friends after work. See you there.
Do you need to relax after a long day of shopping at the valley mall? Does a cold frozen peach beverage sound like the perfect ending to your shopping spree? Walk over to Outback Steak House for their wonderful Wallaby peach frozen house drink. They have a nice size bar area that consists of both booths and tables. Appetizers are plentiful if you are looking for a light snack. I enjoy the coconut shrimp. The Outback is known for their Wallaby but they also have great frozen margaritas. I sometimes enjoy mixing the two together. After a long day of shopping, you really should stop in for a Wallaby

TGIF: An Adonis Odyssey
The weekend is here and Adonis and his Aphrodite are excited to try a few new places. The Wild Sage is on the list for tonight as well as the Marquee Lounge. Join us at these spots or be sure and check out the rest of the great deals on HappySpokane.com. See you all Monday.
Stop into O'Doherty on any afternoon and you will find 2 kinds of people. Those who are in love with the place, and those that are there for the first time. The atmosphere screams small town pub but the menu is where the goods are at. If you're a beer lover there is something for everyone. Classic half and half with Guinness and Harp, microbrew, and even the big names if you must. For those of you looking for more from the motherland, try a Smithwick's or get 2 fingers of Jameson neat. Once you have business out of the way get down to pleasure. The paistie is outstanding, the BBQ sandwich is amazing, and even the Irish Dip is better than most. Top it off with their cheese fries and you're in for a long afternoon of being full and happy. This isn't for you calorie counters, I suggest the shepherd's Pie.
