Tomorrow I have a vacation day - YAY! Tonight, Mondo and I stopped by The Park Tavern for their amazing Happy Hour and some pizza. I've been craving it since the last time I went there several months ago.
So what's so great about their Happy Hour you ask? Well, $2 U-Call-Its should explain it all (only on Tuesdays). The last time I went there, I was prepared. I visited the Chambord website and wrote down recipes for a few (okay - several) drinks I wanted to try. When we got there I just handed the list to the waitress and she brought them out one at a time.
Tonight I had an Italian Margarita (sugared rim and a shot of amaretto).
On the menu was the following offer for pizza: Buy three toppings, get three free - so we loaded up... Mushrooms, Artichokes, Onion, Ham, Bacon AND Sausage. Yikes.
You can't beat the deal on the drinks and they were yummy. The pizza was pretty good too, although I would have liked it toasted just a tiny bit more.
However, I can't say much for their service. In the handful of times I've went, it hasn't been the friendliest... and on one occasion we were seriously overcharged on drinks. But, we also had a bit too much that night, so kinda blaming ourselves on that one.
In the end, I'm sure I'll go back, sometime.
