Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

  Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos.  Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry.

Brunch at Cheeky Cafe

Sundays and Brunch go together like peanut butter and jelly.

My husband had the Chicken Fried Steak and my kids each the Onesies-a plate with one pancake, eggs, and a slice of bacon. I had the Cheeky French Toast with eggs and bacon. The French Toast is filled with pastry cream, and your choice of either chocolate, bananas, or berries. I chose chocolate, of course, and then the French Toast is deep fried to a crisp golden brown. It reminded me of something from the fair since it was deep fried and chocolaty and I found it pretty decedent. And for me, that's what Brunch is about. A little sweet, a little savory, a little bit of booze, and voila, Brunch.
