Drink of the week: $1 margaritas every day

classic_margarita

Like many people, tequila and I have a love/hate relationship. I love it at night, and it hates me in the morning. Oy. But a refreshing margarita in a salt-brimmed glass is perfect for this hot weather.

This week, our food critic Tricia Childress reviews San Antonio's Modern Mexican, located in the SouthPark area. In her review, she relays to her readers that the restaurant offers $1 margaritas every day. Here's an excerpt:

Aside from this, we scarfed up a ton of comfort in the guacamole, made without flair but with lively chatter tableside, and the Galveston crab claws. The claws were fun especially paired with the one dollar margaritas, part of the restaurant's appeal. This popular margarita special is served all day, all night. A varied margarita list and 60 tequilas are on hand as well.

Read the full review here, and for more information on the eatery, visit www.SanAntoniosMM.com.

Drink of the week: The Grape Big Chew

Posted By on Thu, Jun 24, 2010 at 12:34 PM

Last night I was out with one of my girls and I stumbled across a shot I’d never heard of before. I wanted something different, and the bartender asked if I remembered the Big Chew bubble gums that people chewed on as kids ... well, honestly I lived in England when I was a child, so I had no idea what he meant. But I told him I was a bubble gum chewer and he offered me the Grape Big Chew: a shot that gives a little touch of the good old days, but with a good old adult twist.
