I went out for sushi with some friends tonight. It was heavenly! I haven't had the chance to consume wasabi with such vigor in ... ages. I miss it.
The place we went to is new--only about a month old--and they don't have their liquor license yet. So when we ordered wine--no luck. Cerveza? Only non-alcoholic beer. But, our waiter told us, they do serve pisco sours.
Pisco sour is, in essence, the national drink of Chile. It's like, say, ice water, in the States. Very common. I would never go out to a restaurant and ASK if they serve pisco. They do. Trust me. (Pisco is a particular type of liquor made in... the north, I think? Argentines say it's originally from Argentina. Chileans beg to differ.)
My question is this: How is it that this sushi place can serve hard alcohol, but not beer or wine??
