You'll have to get on pappy for the pics. He's our shutterbug.....he might be holding one or two for blackmail before posting. I thought it was a pretty good spot overall. The front half of the place is pretty "blah", but the back room, with the murals etc, was a nice little retreat. The food was ok (we all shared dishes & apps, and it was pretty much hit & miss standard New England asain fare), but the cocktails were actually pretty damn good (and strong). The Mai Tai was a bit sweet, but traditionally made. Pappy's zombie lived up to its name and got all up on him after only one!! I also had a Suffering Bastard, which was a bit off from any recipie I've had, but had some of that pimento/allspice liquor in it that REALLY made the drink complex & interesting. Best of all was, once again, the company. It was nice to see Mr. AND Mrs. Pappy out & about again, good to talk rum with scottes (again), and generally shoot my drunken mouth off to anyone who'll listen :wink: It was a nice save of the night that almost wasn't. Looking forward to the next one at the New Tiki!! |
