Casa Del Mar--Again

Yes, I went again. But in my defense, it wasn't my idea this time. Our friend insisted he needed a drink last night, and CDM's blueberry mojito is his favorite drink of all time.
And here it is. Definitely tasty, but best of all time? I dunno. I still contend that the Frost Bite cocktail at the Four Seasons San Francisco is the best cocktail of all time. Who else uses Inniskillin Ice Wine in a cocktail?! That stuff is $60-90 a bottle.
Tuna club.
Calamari. It came with peanut sauce, which was bizarre. Not bad though.
Chocolate cake. Yum! The "cannoli" was whipped custard wrapped in kind of a burnt sugar cigar, and the cake was very dense moist cake and dark chocolate mousse layers. The syrup was warm, and everything just went very well together.
Ridiculously, our total bill for two cocktails, a beer, and the food above was over $90. CDM's lounge is not a good value. But if one person had eaten everything we ordered, he/she would have been very drunk and very full. So as far as wedding research goes, I don't think any guest will be leaving the wedding hungry. Mission accomplished.

  • hmm.. thinking back on it, I believe my favorite cocktail of all time had to be the mojito we had at the bar at fleur de lys. No other mojito has ever been able to match the quality and strength of mint. -J
