So - first, let me start with Dos Caminos. There are a few of them in NYC. They have incredible guacamole that is freshly made to order... but it costs 12 dollars extra... hay-zeus. Andy and I went there tonight (Monday, March 10th, 2009) and I had these little soft fajitas with some amazing pork and grapefruit mix. The food was damn good. But again, the expenses were absurd... 6 dollars per Pacifico... in Wichita that shit would cost like two bucks. The ambiance was ok. A little cheesy as you could tell it was a chain. But this is a chain with only 3 different Dos Caminos and only in NY. We went to the lower east side for a random bar - which was the...
Blue and Gold Seventy-Nine Bar. Super Divey. It was on seventh street close to first ave. The bartender was kind of a bitch... she wanted to see my id and it took twenty minutes to get a drink.. Then we took a chance and got a pitcher of the house beer. It was shit. Tasted like bud light. Cue in the bad Sting song "Fields of Gold" to make the experience even more confusing. The crowd was a lot of LES dirty hipsters... the more downbeat depressing type.
We played quarters to try and make the other person drink the ill swill. And left soon after the pitcher was kicked.
