Thirsty Thursday #6

Happy almost TGIF. This week I ventured to Gaslight on Harrison Ave. in Boston's South End. I had heard great things and was finally able to check out this amazing and exciting French bistro. From the windows, to the walls (you can sing the rest) to the white marble table-tops, this restaurant was taken straight off the Champs-Elysees (a famous avenue in Paris filled with shops, cafes and of course, brasseries).

So who was surprised when Sarah, our bartender for the evening, was just as incredible in her bartending skills as the rest of the restaurant. She made two Bully Boy cocktails, the first was a vodka julep of sorts, and the second was a whiskey drink that will blow your socks off. The vodka julep was sweet and refreshing, which is great for those that don’t like to taste the overwhelmingly strong taste of alcohol in their drink (but look out, I know the combination is just as deadly for your head in the morning). The second drink was a much stronger drink, but diverse in its flavor profile.

When I asked Sarah about Bully Boy (after she finished the bottle of vodka no less) she replied, “They sell well here at Gaslight, and we like to know that the product is coming from local guys.”

Well there you have it, Gaslight is most definitely a place to check out for fun, french bistro food and some of Sarah’s amazing Bully Boy cocktails. Peace, love and Bully Boy.
