By all accounts the happy hour at the new TRUST in Hillcrest (in that fancy mixed used project on Park, i.e. the “Mr. Robinson” complex) is pretty good.
Food $7
Drinks (cocktails, beer, and wine) $5
Lamb meatballs and chicken liver toast were all good.
Some interesting cocktails on the offing. Tried the “Penicillin” which was a tequila based cocktail mixed with some ginger and honey (and maybe one other thing that I’m forgetting). Interesting, and a bit more acidic than I’m used to, but that’s me. Old Fashioned was, well, just like a good Old Fashioned. In retrospect there was a rum based Manhattan that I shoud’ve tried. Next time, I suppose.
Room is loud, or should I say “lively”? So you’ve been warned. Sit outside if you want it a bit more tranquil, especially with these mild SD nights we’re having in the middle of winter.
