So I heard from a co-worker that I must try the fabulous happy hour at Fat’s Asia Bistro in Folsom…a martini happy hour, you say? You don’t have to tell me twice.On my way home, I made a detour to the Bistro, where I’d normally stop for the best chow mein ever, but instead opted to try the bar scene and all it had to offer…which was a lot, let me tell you!
When I saw the big golden Buddha in the entry, I knew I was home. The chic lounge area was buzzing with plenty of people (apparently I was the last one to get the memo); however, I was able to score a seat at the bar!
I quickly ordered their Lemondrop martini, my favorite variety in the summer…but if you’re feeling like something more sweet and less tart, a lady next to me recommended the Peach Lemondrop, or their Passion martini (a tropical combination), or even their one-of-a-kind Cherry Blossom martini (a beautiful sight to see).
My Lemondrop was frosty and fresh (no fake tasting lemon)…and the best part of this concoction was the tab – only 5 bucks. And with the half-price Dim Sum & Then Some menu, you really can fill your tummy with all your favorite Asian tapas and still not starve your wallet.
Happy Hours:
Monday through Friday, 3 to 6 p.m.; weekends, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Locations:
Folsom: 2585 Iron Point Road
Roseville: 1500 Eureka Road
But don't take our word for it...go enjoy the happy hour and then tell us if you agree!
