Cadillac Margarita night:
1 1/2 oz 1800® Tequila
1 oz Grand Marnier® orange liqueur
1/4 oz fresh lime juice
splash of orange juice, Sierra Mist
Picked this up while renewing my membership at
Barnes and Noble. Continuing my interest in Old New York.
Rosa Mexicano Restaurant Week lunch was superb.
Dessert: Homemade Mexican chocolate cupcake filled with hazelnut mousse and topped with crème fraiche whipped cream. Served with an espresso-piloncillo-chocolate sauce.
A gussied-up Drake's Yankee Doodle.
Bought The Outer Limits DVDs for Seasons one and two of the original series, three DVD sets in all. Lots of Twilight Zone players. James Cameron had to settle with Harlen Ellison for Demon with a Glass Hand and Soldier - Outer Limits scripts that inspired The Terminator.
The Bowery Whole Foods Beer Room is a frequent
stop. They always have fresh, local Beer.
Today's pick: Sixpoint Diesel Stout.
And, Magic Hat 100(IBU) IPA. IBU stands for International Bittering Unit - the scale used to measure hop bitterness in beer. An IBU is one part per million of isohumulone, an acid derived from hops. If you like the very bitter “bite” of the “Extreme Beers,” a higher IBU would be an indication of that snap.
