Cocktail Recipe: The Bride

Filed under: Cocktail Recipes by Girl Wonder

I love experimenting with cocktails, especially when you try variations of one and have to make it (and drink it) again and again.
Take this previously wussified drink that consisted of:
1.5 oz of Brandy
3 oz of Cranberry Juice
4 oz of OJ
Really? Only 1.5 ounces of Brandy for 7 ounces of juice? What are we, making cocktails [...]

Nefarious Nurse: To Sit, Stand or Squat

Filed under: Nefarious Nurse by The Nefarious Nurse

“I sit when I pee most of the time…if you had a penis you would know why. It splatters all over and when you realize what must be getting all over your shoes and floor…it is a big motivator to go ahead and sit instead of having to be macho and stand up”
I am glad [...]

The Black Rose – Santa Rosa

Filed under: Pub, Restaurants, Santa Rosa, Sonoma County, Whiskey Bars by Girl Wonder

Atmosphere: Irish Pub
Clientele: Hard to say
Spirits: Full bar with good whiskey list

I’ve been waiting to write the Black Rose Pub review for a while because I really like this place but every time I go there, I’m like the only person there. I’ve gone to the Black Rose (2074 Armory, on [...]

Gary’s at the Belvedere, the Hotness Trifecta

Filed under: Bars, Hot Bartenders, Restaurants, Santa Rosa, Sonoma County by Girl Wonder

Atmosphere: Hipster College Bar
Clientele: Eclectic
Spirits: Full bar
Staff: Hot Bartenders
You’re probably wondering why the photo above is kind of fuzzy, well, that’s because the Belvedere was the last stop on a three-bar tour and I think probably everyone who comes to the Belvedere sees that sign the same way, blurry. Gary’s at the Belvedere is located [...]

Patterson’s Pub – Windsor

Filed under: Pub, Restaurants, Sonoma County, Windsor by Girl Wonder

Atmosphere: Wine country pub
Clientele: Couples, winery workers, Australians
Spirits: Full bar with drink specials
Staff: Depends on who’s working
The best thing about pubs is that sometimes you get to meet authentically Irish (my favorite) and English men there. While I was sad to hear that the local Irish never set their dainty Paddy toes into Patterson’s (located [...]

Located in a portion of hulking twin green buildings at the corner of Hwy 116 and Graton Rd, the Ace in the Hole cider pub (is it in Sebastopol or is it in Graton? This is just one of the mysteries of the [...]

Self Inflicted Acoustic Trauma.. yea baby.. THE UK SUBS!!

Filed under: Dive Bars, Fairfax, Marin County, Music Reviews, Nightclub by zinchick

The earplugs sitting in my glove compartment rarely get used. I go to a ton of music venues, and I often walk away with my ears ringing. Sigh.. when will I EVER learn? Maybe our medically trained Nefarious Nurse needs to do a feature on Self Inflicted Acoustic Trauma? To be fair, I don’t always forget to [...]

The Nefarious Nurse: How to Wash Your Hands

Filed under: Nefarious Nurse by The Nefarious Nurse

ed note: Consider for a moment how many times in a night out that you visit the restroom. Now consider how many people and things you touch in a bar setting … hugs, handshakes, punching in numbers on the jukebox, fondling a pool cue, handling money, groping the bartender, etc… Now think about how many [...]
