Meat Liquor with the boys.

I don't know about you but I have a list as long as my arm filled with all the restaurants, clubs, pubs and cocktail bars that I MUST go to. Meat liquor was certainly at the top. Last night after a very chilled day in the park soaking up the sunshine, we decided it was about time we checked it out. Normally you have to queue for a good half an hour at least to get a table. But not today. We arrived slightly before 9, I won't lie to you we had already had a pit stop at the Three Tuns for a quick drink and sharing platter. By the time we got there it was still packed and our names were added to a list and pointed in the direction of the bar. The place is very dark as you'll see by my photos in a second, it has an American grunge feel about it, which I loved. We ordered our first drink, I was very aware that the bartender looked a little like Channing Tatum. 
"Even if the foods bad I may have to bring my girlfriends back just to look at you I thought" 
We were shown to our table and given menus, now at this point I was slightly confused/disappointed I'd come to a place called MEAT liquor and there's wasn't a single straight up steak dish...is this some sort of joke?! My love for steak can sometimes cloud my vision when it comes to perusing a food menu. 
Anyway I went for the next best thing. And my god I felt like a fool for my mini tantrum.


It looks yucky with the flash but...


This is the Phili Cheesesteak. Shavings of rump steak, green peppers and cheese all wrapped up in a big bun. I'm not a fan of the flash at all, I'm all about natural light, which we really were lacking. But you know what they say? If you lower one sense, you heighten another! Trust me your taste buds will thank you for the darkness. The boys being boys all plumped for burgers ofcourse and a side of chilli fries. 


By this point I was winning the fight against my food, I'd decided to tackle the problem with both hands. 


Now this is where it all got a bit silly. And by that I mean, I got a little silly. Due to my deliriously happy state I really wasn't thinking before speaking, to the boys delight! If you're out with the lads I wouldn't suggest ever saying "oh my god! I'm getting more meat between my legs than in my mouth" 


My Phili monster was awesome but then I had a bite of one of the burgers and it was a game changer! Word on the street is the wings are pretty neat too. 
Thanks for having us Meat Liquor, we'll be back soon.
