DURKINS FOR THE WIN!!!

 

Durkin's Liquor Bar


Basement Bar
   Long story short, My FiancĂ©e and I had this go to Bourbon bar in Annapolis (DRY 85) we used to love to go to; great food and bourbon cocktails.
 Durkin's in Spokane, Washington didn't fall short at all and actually exceeded my expectations! This place has EXCELLENT bar tenders that are very knowledgeable about cocktails and make great recommendations based off your palate.  On top of the great drinks, the food was amazing too! a little pricey, but if you dine out frequently at cocktail bars you should know what to expect price wise. I had the butchers cut steak with garlic fries and my lady had the house made bologna sandwich. Both entrees were great! The steak was tender, full of flavor and paired well with the fresh fries and marrow butter. The bologna sandwich was winner too! I'm a foodie so I had to try a piece of the bologna, and man was it good! Its house made and smoked, so it doesn't taste like some ole Oscar Meyer lunch meat.


Butchers Cut w/ marrow butter and garlic fries
65th Street (Great if you like Bourbon)




House made smoked bologna sandwich





   I would HIGHLY recommend both dishes, especially that sandwich if you never gave up your childhood love of bologna. haha  Durkin's has two floors, the top floor is the restaurant/bar and downstairs is an underground bar that's kind of reminiscent of a old speak easy. The bar area is a nice chilled  spot and good for meeting with a significant other or some good friends for drinks. It can get noisy at times, but who the heck likes going to a quiet bar?! if you enjoy great food, company, and cocktails( Especially Whiskey & Bourbon) I highly recommend checking out Durkin's for a good evening! ~CHEERS~


New City...New Experiments...New Restaurants!!

What it do folks?
 Once again I know I don't have many followers, but for those of you who do check on my blog from time to time; I want to apologize again for being M.I.A. I was in the process of relocating, so now that I'm slowly getting settled in I figured I'd reconnect. I now live on the West Coast in a small but growing city called Spokane. I'm anxious to hit you all with some new experiments/recipes and some restaurant and event pictures and reviews. Hope everyone is doing well, staying positive, and creative!! STAY TUNED! ~Biggs~
