Downstairs from the experimental gastronomy taking place in the main dining area (which I told you all about some time ago) Tailor holds a dimly lit haven for equally experimental cocktails. Truly a special occasion spot, the drinks here are quite expensive, but also quite unique. I was particularly taken with the agua verde – a tomatillo based mixture that refreshes those that like their drinks on the savory side.
Created by Troy Arcand, the beverage is complex but, if you trust your mixology talents, can be reproduced at home. Just make sure to have some Maggi Seasoning on hand.

Desserts »Fried Oreos at R.U.B.
Yes, R.U.B. gets two categories this week. Their only dessert is fried oreos – an oreo battered in fried dough. The only reason to not completely pig out on dinner is to saved room for one of these. Trust me, one is enough.

Drinks »Flavored Margaritas at Cafe El Portal
We went a few months ago with Doug and Astrid and tried the cucumber and a hibiscus varieties. Both were awesome. There were several more flavors to choose from, these two just jumped right of the menu.

Desserts »Anything at Chikalicious
Has a twelve dollar pre fixe menu.
Plus seven for wine pairing.
You won't get full on any of the desserts.
But you will be satisfied.
One warning: come early, this place is TINY.
They don't take reservations either.

Desserts »Grilled Donuts at Moto
This place looks how I assume Paris did during the occupation
I guess that;s a weird assumption.
But anyways, the grilled donuts are worth the special trip.
