Actually, I had several amazing drinks there but I'll post about that in the right place. Anyway, has anybody drank and more importantly, tried to make a Pod Thai? Here's a picture: Here's a recipe: http://www.saveur.com/article/recipes/pod-thai-cocktail This is not an easy one, because of the lemongrass-cardamom syrup. But it was simply ridiculously delicious. Chad Austin, the mixologist/beverage director was making me fantastic drink after fantastic tiki drink but the flavors in this one were truly amazing. I want more! Many, many more. And I don't want to have to drive 100 miles to get em! I can probably easily get these ingredients in local SE Asian stores so maybe I'll try the recipe out. Chad was using Selvarey rum in this drink.
