I think we’ve previously established I love the newly discovered Blind Pig.
.
.
Their cocktail list can not be beat and I’m trying my damnedest to work my way through it before the fall rewrite.
.
.
Pear mojito? Sorry… I drank it too quickly to get a photo.
.
.
Candy apple margarita? Yes please.
But then it happened.
.
.
My spinach artichoke dip? Dry and tasteless.
.
.
The husband’s riblet appetizer? Tough, fatty and bland.
.
.
Even the comical shirt worn by this waitress couldn’t take the sting out of bad food.
.

My lemon pepper baked haddock was nice, though the addition of squash chunks in the risotto left a lot to be desired.
But my husband has never been thrilled with this establishment’s menu, and I fear the era of his making do because I love the cocktails has reached its conclusion .
.
.
This tomato bisque was the last straw. It had smokey bacon and some weird spice mixture that totally turned my other half off. I knew it was coming, but when he said he wasn’t in any hurry to return?
Oh! The horror!
.
.
I slowly savored one last blackberry bramble and silently prayed I could change his mind.

River's world..... 
That’s a sad, sad state when the cocktaiLs are spectacular but the food sucks monkey balls. My condolences to the Blind Pig over losing your patronage 🫤.

Cathy had a bramble in Charleston. She said it was pretty good. I don’t expect to see chunks of squash in my risotto unless it’s printed on the menu or I have recently dropped a hit of acid. GOOD GOD MAN! Have you taken leave of your senses?! I think Greatmartin is on to something, smart guy.

This bramble was fabulous, made with fresh blackberries.
I’m going to work on eating somewhere else but starting here for pre dinner cocktails.

You should let the Manager know of your blog reviews so they can fix their food before they lose to many customers.

Drinks and flatbreads does sound like a reasonable work around, but yeah, just being a spot for pre-dinner cocktails and then dinner elsewhere sounds like how this will play out long-term.

What a shame when the bartender can mix up a good concoction, but the chef can’t.
