Long the hidden hipster hot spot (celebs flock to the dark corners when they’re in town), Fonda San Miguel’s new Happy Hour in the Patio Bar should introduce the venerable interior Mexican restaurant–it’s been around for 35 years–to a younger Rosedale crowd. HH features $1 off tequila, $4.95 house margaritas, $5 House wines by the glass, and half-priced select appetizers from 5 – 7pm, Monday through Thursday.
Founder & Executive Chef Miguel Ravago’s three seasonal “antojitos” (appetizers) include:
Ostiones Empanizados, crispy Gulf oysters with tabasco aioli and salsa fresca
Miguel’s Gorditas, hand-ground corn masa pockets filled with seasoned black beans, ranchera salsa and crumbled Mexican cheese
Huaraches, oblong, sandal-shaped fried masa topped with chipotle black beans, crumbled cheese and Crème Fraîche
Cocktails stirred up by Fonda’s expert bartenders include:
Brillante: Cava (Spanish sparkling wine), St-Germaine elderflower liqueur and a Hibiscus flower in syrup
Mojito Apasionado: passion fruit mojito with 10 Can Rum, lime, mint and Chambord as well as a daily selection of fresh fruit margaritas and traditional margaritas.
