I eventually realized the black bean salsa burger was a veggie burger a few weeks ago. The server got flustered when I asked if it was meat or not. He thought I was vegetarian concerned that I was eating meat. In actuality I’m a carnivore that was concerned he wasn’t getting any meat.... I still order the black bean salsa burger because it’s awesome...I make sure I wash it down with an order of wings though...and several Mighty Egos....

I hit Irish Mafia for the first time a few weeks ago on our way to Keuka Lake. Nice beers and decent food. Won't be the last time I'm there, for sure.

Won't be the last time I'm there, for sure. I really love the place. It takes me 3 mins to get there... Other Half Brewing Co bought Nedloh’s brewery across the intersection from the Mafia. They don’t do food(food trucks sometimes) but they have an outdoor gaming area and they are very popular with the somewhat younger crowd. They bought the building at the base of the hill on the highway and plan on turning it into a restaurant.... I’m constantly meeting folks from Victor/Mendon that are out for the beers. We went from having one place in town for dinner to four. Two of which serve very good beers. Mugsy’s is the diner in the plaza next to the gas station. They don’t serve alcohol but they have really good food. Not the kind you’d ordinarily expect from a diner. Give me shout next time and I’d definitely meet you for a beer.

Winston Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 Anniversary dinner tomorrow night. Great excuse to try the new steakhouse just up the street from us.. A quick peek at the menu has my wife thinking twin lobster tails, while I’m eyeballing the 8oz filet. Will report back! I spent the last week in LA for business. I venture out and try to find good grub each night with coworkers that know the city. Two of us visited a taco spot one night that was literally tucked away in an alley, underneath a pop up tent in downtown LA. Not a single person there spoke a word of English, and neither of us speak any Spanish. I have no idea what I ate. But I know it was delicious. Also, horchata is incredibly delicious. If you haven’t tried it, I highly recommend. A simple yet tasty drink to accompany the spicy tacos. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think bourbon shines at 94-107 proof. I’ve been hitting on a bottle of Thomas Handy. Barrel proof rye. It’s a bit too lively at barrel proof, but a touch of water and it turns into daddy’s candy. On 6/7/2019 at 8:36 PM, ubkev said: The 80 proof makes me feel better when I drink half a bottle. The 104 hurts after that much. I liked the "lighter" proofs better. More bourbon taste and less alcohol taste. To me, there's a reason Bourbon opens up with a drop or two of water. YMMV. Also, Weave, there's a new bourbon bar in town, so next time you feel like being a degenerate, let me know. I'll do the driving this time.

bobs0108 Posted June 17, 2019 Report Share Posted June 17, 2019 I am up in Stowe VT on a three day adventure with the wife. We hit three breweries Vontrap brewing, Harpoon, and The Alchemist. The Alchemist is a great brewery that makes Heady Topper and Focal Banger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last I checked Heady Topper was one of the highest rated beers in the country on beer advocate and nearly impossible to buy in stores. Does it live up to its reputation? Missed it when I was in the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
