We're pathologically social. We're professional leisurists. We're burrito lovers, bar flies, art whores and music nerds. We dish the good dirt, and we'll risk a parking ticket for a cheap sample sale. Sometimes, we blog drunk.

So in love with S Bar


 
Slight problem. I’m obsessed with S Bar. I went for the first time last Friday and I can’t keep myself away. Even the doorman has taken to “welcoming me back.” To be fair, though, I’ve had to keep coming back because the drinks are so interesting that I can’t control myself. Next thing I know, it’s the morning after and I can’t read my notes. (One night I was sitting next to Jamie Foxx and I had no idea.) You can see why...
 


The Pepper Delirious (left) is made with hand-pressed yellow pepper juice, mint and gin. It sounds gross but I promise you it’s amazing. And next to it is the Bee’s Knees, which is a concoction of honey syrup, lemon and gin. (Pardon the photography. I snuck the pics on my phone.)



And here's the celery-ginger cocktail...It's perfection in a glass. The margarita made with pomegranate and horseradish, however, is not quite my speed.

Anyway, you’ll be very glad to know that I finally did sober up and write my review—it’s the main feature in the Bars & Clubs page next Thursday, November 8, so check back—and it’s pretty much a love letter to counter all the S Bar haters.

PS. I heart the valet dude on the left. On Friday he was quite the fashion critic as costumed tranny hos walked by.
