What is Umami? Ponder the oyster. Tom yum. Carne asada. All umami. Don't try to define it! Just surrender to the addiction; savor the flavor implosion.

Happy Hour: Still Hungover

by Paystyle


It’s safe to say I haven’t quite got the jump on my New Year’s resolutions yet. In fact I think I need to call in a do-over. You see, in my case New Year’s Eve was only the beginning of the holiday madness, as all week long I played host to my brother and some friends who were visiting me from LA. Naturally on New Year’s Eve we partied like it was 2009, and then in the new year we partied like it was 2010–everyday for a week straight.

I say all that as a preface to a sincere apology for not having a Happy Hour column for you this week since I am still in recovery mode, and writing about cocktails with a hangover is like trying to buy a plane ticket the day after surviving a plane crash. I hope you can find a bit of forgiveness in your heart (if not, add that to your list of resolutions), and I look forward to catching you next week for more mixological musings.

Here’s to another year of great cocktails! (Ouch)
