(no subject)
Steph and I decided to go out last night.
As usual, it was insane. We had dessert at this one restaurant/bar on Oberkampf and noticed that they had vodka shots for each sign of the Zodiac. Bold as we are, we decided to give it a shot (har har). She's a Gemini and ordered accordingly, and when I asked the waitress for a Leo, she tried her best to dissuade me because it was "extremely hot and spicy." Um, and? Hook a boy UP, please.
I really had no idea it'd be that bad. My mouth was definitely ablaze, and the waitress was kind enough to bring me 2 bottles of water after watching me attempt to fan my mouth for a good minute. Curious as to what could've possibly caused such oral destruction, I asked the bartender just what he used to make the Leo. Tabasco, harissa, and chili oil, to be exact, mixed with just a bit of vodka. In all honesty, I didn't taste any liquor. Then again, since my taste buds were en fuego, I wasn't exactly paying too much attention. H.O.T. damn.
Oh, and the Gemini was made with lychee juice. Ugh.
