Thank you, Okra, for introducing me to the Vieux Carre! I am in love with this drink. I actually made a small batch version and gave it as a gift to a fellow whiskey lover this past holiday season. No worries: I told the recipient to go to Okra: the inspiration. You keep me coming back for more: I dream of working my way through the cocktail menu... I want to try them all!
I seriously love the cocktail menu here because it introduces me to such a great variety of drinks: traditional and original.
Food-wise, I highly recommend:
the mac and cheese balls
the country ham & hoe cakes
the pimento burger - my current choice for best burger in the Valley!
