| - After a very long night of drinking, me and my friends headed to Steel Cactus for the bloody mary bar and some delicious Mexican breakfast options. Upon sitting down at the rooftop bar, it seemed as though Steel Cactus was a bit hungover, too. Only one other seat in the whole place was filled, and it casted this eerie morning-after vibe across the bar.
We sat down and I ordered my much anticipated bloody mary and headed to the bloody mary bar, which had plenty of options for mixing into your drink. One thing I would have loved to see at the bloody mary bar was a freshly-grated pepper option, but the jar of lemon pepper had to suffice.
As I sipped my spicy bloody mary, I ordered the huevos rancheros which, upon arrival, were underwhelming. I wasn't as impressed with the enchilada sauce and i found the hard corn tortillas difficult to eat. Everything needed a bit more salt and pepper and copious amount of hot sauce. Seeing that I was extremely nauseous from my hangover, I could not finish my bloody mary or breakfast. The bloody mary was quite tasty and I really wish that I had been able to drink it but I was not in the right state to be drinking it.
I must say though, as this experience was rather unexceptional, our waitress was the kindest person and was very personable. Even when I asked for an extra plastic bag in case I puked in the car ride home, she never judged me one second!
Discalimer: Steel Cactus's to-go bags are NOT good for puking in the car. The bloody mary does taste just as good coming up as it does when it's going down (if you know what I mean).
Update: after my hangover subsided and I reheated my huevos rancheros in the microwave, they tasted much better. Perhaps Steel Cactus should nuke their food before serving it as well.
