A Post-Hike Drink at The Restaurant

I have never seen such a unique selection of brunch libations; I had a tough time deciding. There was, of course, the de rigueur bellini and ubiquitous mimosa. But it was the more innovative offerings that intrigued me. I vacillated between the St. Germain Royal—Roederer Brut with St. Germain elderflower liqueur, and a lime wheel—and the Hair of the Dog Punsch—lemon-infused Zaya rum with spiced black tea. In the end I opted for the Hair of the Dog Punsch; punsch—with its seemingly errant “s”—is not actually a typo. Punsch, Stout answered when I asked, derives from a northern European spelling of this cocktail that is served hot. Though I was initially reluctant to order it because rum cocktails are notoriously syrupy sweet, I couldn’t resist the name.

It's all about THE SANDWICH!

this is a great place for a sandwich and alot better than any sandwich chain out there. I can hobestly say this is te best sandwich i have ever had in my life. first of all the sandwich names are as out there as you can get and ike is obviously a huge child of our pop culture past. the sandwich combinations are insanely creative and make it hard for me to choose my sandwich of the day. there is alot going on with the sandwiches so they can get messy so i just enjoy myself and make it a sandwich experience. each and every sandwich is loaded to the tee with the freshest of ingredients and each halve so big i usually have the rest for a midnight snack. this place is all about creativity and just being who you are, so have fun and enjoy your ike's.
