Girls day at Ginger Hop

About once a month, Elissa and I do a Saturday girls day. We get lunch, do some kind of spa appointment or get our hairs did, and then go out for cocktails. It's glorious.

Last weekend we checked out the Ginger Hop, which was just about as adorable as it's name.We ordered our fancy drinks and asked our waiter to take a picture of us. He snapped the shot, said "Aww, cute!" and handed my phone back to me.

And the photo? It. Was. Hideous. It's one things when someone's eyes are closed (which Elissa's were, btw) but this was like something off of a fun house mirror. If it hadn't been so horrifying I would have posted it for you because I really have no shame but it was too much even for me. It was traumatizing.

So instead, here are pretty photos of our drinks, the Ginger (Canton French Ginger Liquor, Chambord, vodka, OJ and soda garnished with candied ginger) and the Eye Candy (Patron Citronge Liquer, Canton Ginger, pomegranate juice, OJ, and sparkling brut) as well as our delicious fried egg rolls. In summary: I'd recommend going there for food and drinks but do NOT under any circumstances, ask an employee to take your photo.
