Upon arrival, the place was already pretty busy.<\/p>\n
We headed upstairs where we were greeted by St. Elmo\u2019s Punch.\u00c2\u00a0This dangerous concoction included rum, bitter-sweet liqueur, pineapple, coconut, lime and cava. Oh boy\u2026<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ham-dressed baby lettuces \u2013 I don\u2019t how these tasted as amazing as they did. I\u2019d guess I had about 8 throughout the night.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Gulf shrimp ceviche \u2013 light, refreshing, spicy.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Kettle Chip Spanish tortilla with a side of photo inception!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Brawn taco, compressed muffaletta, and wonton with smoked trout.<\/p>\n
Wait a second, did they just put head cheese in a taco? And it was creamy and crispy and out of this world?<\/p>\n
Yes, they did and yes it was.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Peaches with cottage cheese. The perfect not too sweet mini-dessert, and normally, I\u2019m so<\/em> not down with cottage cheese. Whoa.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The night ended with a drink called Trust No One Under 30. (I call shenanigans!) It had bourbon, Aperol, peach and lemon. Plus, it matched what was left of my chipped nail polish!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sometimes, cool things just happen this easily:<\/p>\n
