Sally's Stage Restaurant (Commercial, 1981)

 

The Bar

 

Had to move stuff into the upstairs attic today so I also worked on the living room which is basically kitchen overflow. When my father moved in all I had was some dusty brandy and little bottles of red wine I use to cook tomato sauce. The whiskey, tequila, and rum is new. All I need now is a decent bottle of vodka. I also use vodka in my tomato sauce. Some bitters, lime juice, and cherries to the right, and a bartender's guide for cocktails.

Four Roses - Campfire

I've got a bottle of Four Roses on my booze shelf. Unopened. Sadly, most of my booze shelf is unopened.  I can serve simple cocktails to guests now, where before I had nothing but old brandy. Got a bottle of decent dark rum and decent gold tequila over the weekend. Dark rum I cook with.

Evan Williams apple whiskey I got just for cooking. House smells like apples. Instead of one or two tablespoons that I know previously will cook out, I used a half cup apple whiskey. Plus a little Jim Beam as a bracer because the apple is really apple.
