Manhattan Cocktail

So who makes "Blended Bourbon" nowadays?

Bluecoat American Dry Gin

I bought two bottles of BlueCoat last month and have just finished the first.

Definitely not your normal London gin, I've mixed BlueCoat versions of most of my gin favorites. The Bronx and the PX's Big O seemed to be off, so maybe staying away from orange is a good plan.

Dunno why Spirit Journal trashed this brand.

Sharing Food?

Chinese restaurants (and lots of Italian places as well) often serve family style: food in the middle of the table and smaller plates in front of each person.

We've always treated large restaurant entrees the same way. Your server will gladly bring you smaller plates (or use the bread plates if you must).

We're just back from a long weekend in New Orleans (that town is still one of the best restaurant cities in America -- more restaurants are open now than pre-Katrina) and all the servers knew how to treat us right.

Time for a Drink: The Paloma

Dunno about Fresca, but the improbable combination of Squirt and Rose's Lime juice actually works quite well: 3 shots Tequila, 1 shot Rose's and 1 12-ounce can of Squirt. Pucker up!

Houston, TX - Restaurant Suggestions, Anyone?

Houston is one of America's greatest restaurant towns. You'll have no trouble finding great food at every price point. For steaks, I love Steamboat House (on Sam Houston Tollway near the horse race track). For seafood, don't miss Goode Company on West I-10 near Gessner -- Goode Company Barbeque at Kirby near 59 is a don't miss, too. Rajin Cajin's original location on Richmond near Wesleyan is a treat. Texmex at Pico's on Bellaire is often ranked tops.
