As I took a big bite of perfectly grilled Mahi-Mahi and tore into a fresh corn tortilla yesterday at The Vig Uptown, I felt a devilish grin creep across my face; While other employees were stuck in break rooms heating up leftovers, I was sittin’ pretty at one of the best restaurants in town, listening to Heidi organize her thoughts for this week’s radio show.

if you’ve never been to either of The Vig locations, they’re worth entering in your GPS. The food is gorgeous, inventive, and delicious. Unexpected blends of ingredients and spices make for an incredible dining experience, and some of the names  of the dishes will make you chuckle. Oh–and did I mention the perfect service? Thanks for putting up with our silly banter, Adam, we’ll be seeing you again soon for Happy Hour. I’m sure Heidi will be ordering a “Neat-O-Tito”, and I’m gonna “Take Bethany Home.” Remember that, will ya?

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 oz Dry Vermouth
  • 1 1/2 oz Tito Vodka

1.) Pour ingredients into a cocktail mixer with ice

2.) Shake “liberally”

3.) Strain the drink into a martini glass and garnish with two Bleu cheese-stuffed olives
