With the sweltering heat this summer, we have been trying to find excuses to get out of our apartment and into somewhere with central air. Even after a recent trip to the movies, we couldn’t bring ourselves to head home, so we wandered around the neighborhood looking for a likely-looking bar where we could hole up for a while. Eventually, we stumbled across Cafe Luluc, mainly because Tina was drawn to the smell of French Fries wafting out the door.
The french fries proved to be as good as the smell promised, but we were a bit saddened by the drink menu. We had the option of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, etc.--and you know what we think of that sort of wine menu. If you don't, just read our recent article. The beer selection wasn’t much better, with only a handful of big name domestic options. But, arrayed along a shelf were a number of carafes, filled with red wine and bits of fruit. Sangria! Such a simple drink, turning some cheap ingredients into the perfect drink for a warm summer evening.
