Last night, after work, the skies decided to open and rid themselves of bucket loads of rain in a dramatic fashion, so I headed to the new restaurant ellabess (conveniently located in the same building I work in..ahh, it's a hard life!) to sit at the bar and have a drink. The menu highlights old fashioned cocktails such as Harvey Wallbangers (not sure what it is, but it sounds amusing) and Sloe Gin Fizzes. Being a Gin girl myself, I asked the bartender Daniel to recommend something for me. He easily coerced me with a Gin Gimlet mixed with pomegranate juice. Delish. The large marble counter and modern black stools added a nice touch of atmosphere and the giant windows gave us a great view of the poor fools caught in the downpour. Saturday, August 20, 2011
ellabess..Oh Yes, Oh Yes!
