Though my husband isn’t crazy about their food, I finally wore him down enough for another evening at one of my favorite cocktail bars, The Blind Pig.

.

.

Located in downtown Gardiner…

.

.

In a lovely old brick building…

.

.

With a terraced outdoor seating section…

.

.

We made straight for the bar… because that’s where the magic happens. The Pig’s cocktail list is epic and changes with the seasons. I started with a pear mojito because it’s my go to there and never disappoints.

Luckily the salmon baked in parchment paper with roasted fingerlings and asparagus tickled my spouse’s tastebuds so much he agreed to rethink his previous Blind Pig ban.

.

.

I had a yummy lamb bolognese, and because we were sitting under a pig wearing a pink cowboy hat…

.

.

A blackberry lavender margarita as well.

.

.

Dessert was homemade lemon blueberry cake…

.

.

Which the husband didn’t like and I was forced to finish by myself.

Oh. The hardships I endure for love…

😉
