Brunch & Dining
God Must Be Paying Attention
… because not only did he answer my prayers that Alfa would start serving brunch, but he also guided them into making the most amazing FLIGHT of Bloody Marys I’ve ever tasted in my lift. Actually, let me rephrase that - the ONLY Bloody Mary flight I’ve ever even seen. I had barely made it into my seat when Leah magically appeared with 6 different flavors of Bloody Marys in double shot glasses. I thought I was seeing sextuple (is that a word?) due to mass vodka intake from the night before until I realized the true gloriousness of the moment: they were each deliciously different! One was Tai with curry & coconut milk, one was Cajun & super-spicy, one had carrot juice in it, another was made of tomatillos… I hear the full-size even come with andoulle sausage & shrimp cocktail as garnish. I shit you not when I tell you I thought about those damn bloody marys for hours, months… DAYS! Of course the bacon-wrapped filet with a blue-cheese & red wine reduction and two eggs over-easy was nothing to shake a stick at either… Joe Beckham is, like, “When Smart People Own Restaurants.” Go. Trust.
