Margaritas are still, I think, pretty popular, here. I know only a couple of people who drink Martinis, and no one else who drinks cocktails, or even straight hard liquor. It has been about three years since my last...a Rob Roy. Wine and beer, the booze of choice in this corner of the world.

We did have, in the area, a bar which attempted to recreate the ambiance of the '30s-'50s cocktail lounge; it lasted less than two years. A hot dog restaurant took over the space...plain dog on a bun with mustard $7.95 (I hope they serve a a pickle at that price) and go up to $15 or $16 depending on the add-ons. Needless to say, I have not partaken of their red hots.
