At the Edison… (Uncategorized)
The usual suspects and I gussied up and went out last night for (more than) a few rounds of drinks and some super swanky bar food at the Edison in Downtown L.A. Being the self-professed drink snob that I am, I was leery about this place; too much hype around an LA bar can be a very bad thing for the DQ’s: drink quality and douchebag quotient of the staff and bartenders. After last night, I can put my stamp of approval on it. =D Aside from the occasional eyeball from the hostesses (HAAAAAAAAAAA!), the bartenders were cool, drinks were on point (with only minor coaching on how to make my whiskey cocktail), the food was AMAZING, and the decor (LAWD JESUS the decor!!) was something to marvel at. Can’t say that I’ve been in a redesigned factory this nice, and I’m counting the days until I go back.
But enough of us, let me tell you about the food…
You know what, I can’t even really tell you how good this damn bar food was. It was ridiculous. Lobster corn dogs with creme fraiche? Truffle macaroni and cheese? REALLY?!? I don’t think I ate one thing I didn’t like. They even fresh bake chocolate chip cookies and serve them warm with a glass of milk.
sweet potato fries, wings, and truffle mac and cheese…
Ok, this…THIS…right above these words here…THIS is called the Elvis. I like to call it ‘Sex on a Hot Plate.’ Grilled peanut butter & banana sandwich with caramel sauce. When I tell you that I had to pause mid-bite just to make sure I was still on this earth and not on a cloud somewhere being overloaded with every pleasurable sense imaginable, you should believe me. Because I did. Swear.
After all of this, a couple of meatballs, some baked apple rings, kobe sliders, a whiskey cocktail and a manhattan (not necessarily in that order), I was pretty much done for the night. Enough of that ‘special dark’ gets me pretty sleepy. Last night was no exception.
