Broken Shaker Madness

 I finally made it to the Broken Shaker, a cute little pop-up bar in the Indian Creek Hotel. It's on the site of a former favorite restaurant of mine, Creek 28. As much as I liked the restaurant, the bar, with it's eclectic speakeasy music, creative old timey decor and games galore, is a better fit. Drinks don't cost too much ($11) and the place is packed with an eclectic mix of funksters, locals and hotel guests. Complex craft cocktails are on the whim of the 'tender and on a menu that changes daily, so forget about asking for a Cosmo or some such dreck. You're more likely to find sage, passion fruit or bitters in these 'bespoke' cocktails. Definitely come check it out soon if you haven't already as this limited engagement ends in June.
