One Mint Julep

2 Jan 2009 / PE

After we struck out at Black Angus, we wound up at Lucille’s Smokehouse Bar-B-Que on my son’s recommendation.

Mint julep

Not only does it turn out to be better than Black Angus, they’ve got — mint juleps!

Ordinarily, I wouldn’t have an alcoholic beverage at a family lunch, but I love mint juleps and it’s rare to find a place that advertises their ability to make one.

“What kind would you like?” the waiter asks.

“There are kinds of mint juleps?” I ask.

“We have seven different brands of bourbon.”

“Oh. Let’s go with the Wild Turkey.”

Ahhh, I’m in heaven . . .
