Lazy Sundays

You gotta love lazy Sundays. Being able to read the paper, gorge on great brunch and sip a morning cocktail. Along those lines the Cap'n and I spent some time at the new Red Room Tavern recently - here's how it went.

First - I have to admit I was skeptical. I loved the Red Room Bar, its working class decor, cheap PBR's and Nintendo 64 complete with Duck Hunt. So when Pair announced they were turning the space into a martini bar and moving the Red Room concept into the Pair space I thought, "Great way to kill a good idea." But I've been wrong before - and was pleasantly surprised.

Kudos to the "Betty Ford Recovery" weekend Brunch menu! You can't go wrong with $6 bottomless mimosas and killer $4 spicy bloody marys.







Aptly named, the "Coronary" is biscuits and gravy, eggs, cheese sauce and topped with our favorite - bacon. We were introduced to this deliciousness during the Pair days and were so glad it stuck around. The sweet potato fries were also scrumptious with a special dipping sauce.




The great thing - you can have a lazy Sunday on a Saturday too - they serve brunch all weekend! And they have a late night happy hour complete with food menu to hopefully stave off the potential hangover.

And for those who still need the dungeon feel of bar life - check the basement, which is still sporting the Nintendo 64 - after 8 pm.
