Great Place for 3$ pints and half off appetizers.

This place is awesome just to hang and have a drink.
Though it's getting a bit busy and service was a bit slow for me and my friends the other night

food is 5.5, it's good but it's snackage beer food.
Prices are Great- I usually spend about  10-15$
Service: 5

Cons: No Blue Moon, service has been getting worse and worse in the past few months.

I'll be comming back for a guys night out or a how I met your mother type group bar hangout :]


***Edit- After talking with my friend, he reminded me that only the bar was busy. and out appetizers took 20 mins. service was VERY BAD

still fun

Quick Tiramisu, From Gordan Ramsey's CookAlong Live

Ingredients
* 1 cup mascarpone
* 1/4 cup powdered sugar
* 4 tablespoons Marsala, or sweet dessert wine such as vin santo
* 1 vanilla bean, or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 3/4 cup heavy cream
* 1 cup cold strong coffee
* 4 Italian ladyfingers, or savoiardi
* Piece of chocolate, to grate as garnish
Method

Sift the powdered sugar into the mascarpone. If using a vanilla bean, split it open and scrape out the seeds. Add the vanilla seeds (or vanilla extract) and Marsala to the mascarpone and mix well.

In a separate bowl, whisk the cream until it forms soft peaks.

Mix the cream and mascarpone together and refrigerate if possible.

Break the ladyfingers in half and dip very briefly in the cold coffee. Divide them into the bottom of four serving glasses. Spoon the mascarpone mixture on top.

Grate over a little chocolate and serve

Let me know what you think!

Note* Marscapone should not be beated or else it will get all clumpy and look like oatmeal.
When buying it they sell it in oz's. Remember 8oz=1cup
Chilling it will make it thicker.

Adult WaterMelon Treat

On my list to try out

Ingredients

* 1 seedless watermelon
* 1 1/2 cups rum, or as needed

Directions

1. Rinse the outer rind of the watermelon thoroughly, and pat dry. Set the watermelon in a position so it will not roll over. Press the tip of a funnel through the rind of the melon. If using a plastic funnel, you may need to cut a hole.

2. Situate the melon on a towel in the bottom of the refrigerator or on the counter. Pour rum into the funnel a little at a time, refilling as it seeps into the melon. I start the afternoon before, since we usually leave to go to events in the morning. Allow the melon to marinate at least a few hours, before removing the funnel. Slice just before serving.
