Prosciutto, salame, brillat savarin and other cheeses, grilled bread, candied walnuts, cornichons, fruit compote and mustard. Happy hour $10
Carpe Diem Wine Bar, Napa CA
This wasn’t the fanciest charcuterie board I’ve ever had, but it was certainly delicious. And at ten bucks, it was a fantastic value. I loved the brillat savarin (one of my favorite cheeses) and the grilled bread and other accompaniments were yummy.
Pol Clement brut. Happy hour $6
Ground Angus beef served with lettuce, tomato, red onion, cheddar cheese and pickles. $12
Affinity Restaurant & Bar, San Jose CA
These sliders were gross! They were hard, dry and flavorless. They were probably some of the worst sliders I’ve ever had. Yuck!
Garlic rubbed crostini topped with fresh diced tomato and basil, drizzled with balsamic glaze. $10
Affinity Restaurant & Bar, San Jose CA
This was good. The ingredients were fresh and clean tasting, but the balsamic glaze would have been better actually drizzled on top instead of underneath.
Two over easy eggs, cheddar cheese, crisp corn tortillas, black beans, tomatillo salsa. $12
The Grille at Shadowrock, Sedona AZ
I really liked this breakfast item! It was presented a little bit differently as a stacked dish. It was fun to eat and the tomatillo salsa tasted great with the black beans and crispy tortillas. The eggs were also cooked nicely, still runny and perfect.
Happy hour $5
The Grille at Shadowrock, Sedona AZ
The salsa was pretty good, but the chips were on the stale side. The happy hour prices were nice though especially for the margarita.
Margarita. Happy hour $5
Tater tot nachos, queso, pickled jalapenos, pico, black beans, crema. $8
Hotel Albatross, Seattle WA
Mmm, tater tot nachos – yes please! These were delicious and classier than they sound. Noms!
5 pieces with marinara sauce. Happy hour $6
Ballard Loft, Seattle WA
These mozzarella sticks were long and thin so the cheese inside was nice and oozy. They didn’t blow my mind but I can’t say no to fried cheese. 🙂
Refried beans, white cheddar, avocado, crema, pico de gallo, salsa verde. $6
Hotel Albatross, Seattle WA
This was really cute and had a lot of different, fun textures. The carnitas was good and I liked the puffy taco shell. I also liked the height of the taco, it was almost like a small salad.
Happy hour $3
Pono Ranch, Seattle WA
This was great for three bucks! And what can go better with beer than chili cheese fries?! It’s a total win-win for me!
$4.50
Ballard Loft, Seattle WA
I’m still not quite sure why these tots cost $4.50 since the happy hour menu indicated that they were supposed to be $2 as an add-on. Lame!
Maritime Pacific Brewing Co. hefeweizen. Happy hour $5
Toasted with cheese, guacamole, sour cream, black beans and pico de gallo. Happy hour $9
Pono Ranch, Seattle WA
This was ok – definitely nothing special or even very good. But I guess it tasted fine while drinking.
Square Mile cider.
With carrots, celery, and blue cheese dressing. 5 pieces $7.50
Ballard Loft, Seattle WA
These sticky wings tasted great, but I do wish they were spicier. There wasn’t much kick in the “hot honey” sauce although it was still pretty tasty.
Super Fuzz blood orange pale, Elysian Brewing Co. Happy hour $5
