| - Some friends and I headed over to Ming last night, after having a good time at last month's Yelp Elite event. We thought it'd be pretty busy on a Saturday night, but we actually had no problem finding a prime table, situated right next to a framed picture of Mr. Joseph Stalin.
I have never really been a cocktail lady, preferring microbrew beer most of the time, but the names are so charming, I couldn't resists. Upon giggling at the names and combinations, and stuck between a few including The Trotsky and The Chairman Mao, I eventually settled for the timeless Karl Marx, a simple vodka (although at Ming, the vodka drinks you), blue curacao, and Sprite. Actually, I eventually settled for a few of those, and a stolen liquor soaked lychee from my lovely and tolerant friend's Chairman Mao.
We also shared some sweet potato fries, which were just fine indeed.
I was not too charmed by the dim, red loungey lighting and the most awkwardly constructed bathrooms ever, but such is life, I suppose.
I will be back to Ming when I'm in the market for some more $10 cocktails, and to make some Communist puns. :)
