Last night Larah and I went to The Paragon in downtown San Jose, a sleek lounge with clean lines and simple design. Their specialty is their extensive vodka bar, and I tried their Chocolate Martini which contained vanilla vodka and dutch chocolate creme. It was a yummy, smooth drink, but a bit sweet for my taste. For it to be my ‘gotta-have’ drink, I prefer the taste of dark espresso and bitter chocolates. We shared a bread pudding, though, and it was TO DIE FOR. It contained warm bananas and walnuts and some sort of liquor sauce.

The chocolate martini sounds like my kind of drink. And Jen… I do believe this comment will post! (I am at work so the problem has to be with my home computer).
Oh, Paragon…we have one here in Portland, too. Jeffrey and I used to go there a lot when we were first dating (my good friend was dating one of the bartenders at the time=cheap drinks!). We had some really good times there and even two of my birthdays, now that I think of it…I LOVED their mojitos.
