An Abrupt End

 Whenever we get the chance to celebrate a beloved family member, we take it. Especially if it involves a fun carefree night out. 

We headed out one innocent Saturday night to celebrate a cousin's birthday at a bar and restaurant that shall not be named.

The night started off well enough. There were some missteps, like the drinks not being that good and the not so talented dj but we resigned ourselves to make the most of our night out. It wasn't about us,  we were there to celebrate the birthday girl.

Then things took a turn for the not so good and long story super short and without too much detail, hubby and three family members of our party were kicked out essentially and refused entry back into the restaurant.

There went the night, unfortunately.  When a place treats customers like low rate criminals, that tells me all I need to know about the owner and his employees.  If my party isn't good enough for your place, neither is my money. I go where I'm wanted, so we left. But not before we made a small scene to let them know we would not tolerate treatment in such an unprofessional manner. 

I tried a cosmopolitan for the first time and while it wasn't bad, I'm not sure I would order it again. Hubby ordered his standard Moscow mule and it was terrible, so he stuck to ordering gin and tonics for the duration of our time there. Again, not the best tasting drinks especially for the inflated price tags.

We did make the most of the time we had, even though the dj wasn't good and the music kinda sucked. It was still nice getting out the house and celebrating with family.
