Technically not #1 for 2009 but we are going to cheat and begin commemorating our drinks both out and in. This one was made by Robert at the downstairs bar at Marliave on 12/29/08. It was made with Old Overholt and had a nice dark, marinated cherry in it. They have some very nice glasses at this place; this martini glass is stemmed and has the lip. The men next to us had square, heavy looking glasses and I'm guessing they were drinking scotch, whiskey, or bourbon straight up.
The martini was made with Bombay (not Sapphire) which you don't always find in bars but is the preferred gin of both my drinking companion and me.
Meatball sliders with sauce and cheese (almost giving it a pizza flavor) come three to a plate and were quite tasty. The roll was toasted but still soft.
