For the last week or so, RA Sushi in Plano
has been promoting their brand of holiday cheer, the Nog-asaki.Cute, right? That’s it in the picture: An eggnog-based cocktail celebrating the
charred remains of those flash fried in the second atomic blast…well,
technically the third, if you count the New Mexico
test. Something D Magazine’s nightlife e-newsletter insists will “impress
guests” at this season’s gatherings.
We’re not here to argue the rights and wrongs of obliterating
Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Both sides make valid points. We just think there are other atrocities, incidents
of mass destruction, brutal dictatorships and other such stuff to laud in
cocktail form. Relax with a Treblinka Sunrise, perhaps. Order a round of Contra
Colas. Or just kick back at the old ballpark with an Osama bin Lager. Bataan
Death March-ini, anyone?
Here are a few other happy hour specials:
