[quote=flu][quote=CDMA ENG]SDDuuuude and me took our respective wives to Searsucker last night…
The cougar crowd looking for men of means was quite entertaining…

How was the food? I heard mixed reviews…
You’ve been to Snooze yet?[/quote]
Well… We did a little of the Tappas thing…
Couple of shared appetizers then on to sharing a entree with our wives.
Appetizers were good. 8 out of 10… Duuuude had the Ono which is cooked purposely dry, the waiter told us this was the way it was supposed to be, and I think he would have given it a seven. I had the scallops, perfectly cooked, very nice tasting… 8 out of 10.
For a shi shi place I would say its right on par with what you would expect. Good… Not great… and a bit pricy…
If you are a “fruity-sweet” drink type then the alcohol menu may be worth trying alone.
I was all sugared out by the time we got there, as I had made some limoncello for Duuuude, and we had mix drinks at his house but they had some really interesting drinks on the menu that I had never heard of. My wife had this drink which I think had whiskey in it but it tasted like an cinnamon apple pie… Quite tasty. The also have a lot of alchol infused fruit. So worth a try there for the drinks.
It’s quite loud there so a bit of a “club” feel to it.
Haven’t even heard of Snooze so no… but now I’ll add it to my list.
If your a Carmel Valley type… I would highly recommend Trattria Ponte Vecchio. Small privately owned restruante. Chef is from Napoli… Ammmmazzzing italian food. Best gnocchi I have ever had though last time I ordered it wasn’t his… Must have ran out that night and served “store bought”. Make reservations… they are tiny and sometimes overbook. My only compliant is that they sometimes overbook and the kitchen gets slow…
No cougar crowd either…
And I really wasn’t kidding about the cougar / digger crowd… It was fierce… More than what you see at Del-Mar…
