| - We were lucky enough to randomly be at Union Pig and Chicken on the night of Harvard and Highland's soft opening, so we've got a special little place in our hearts for it. Situated above Union, it's a sweet open space with some damn fine views of the East End, which can fill you with wonder, or make you lament the human condition depending on what's going on outside.
Every drink you order here is (seemingly) lovingly crafted by the bartenders, and usually involves no less than 5 steps, one tool that I have never seen before, some type of herb or fruit that is unfamiliar, and a single novelty sized ice cube.
We went here for New Years this year, and they had an open bar, so I tried everything twice, then thought I was really good at karate, only to find out in the morning that I had grossly overestimated my skills. My favorite drink is, by far, the Lew Brown, a delicious smokey blend of a bunch of things that I would never think to put together.
I'm fairly certain that you now have access to the Union menu, including the Rye and Jelly Jar list, so the sky is the limit as far as drink choices.
Now that the weather is warming up, I'm itching to head down here in the early evening and watch the sunset with a bunch of people.
