Cooking with Bourbon: Pan-Seared Salmon with Chipotle Honey-Lime Bourbon Glaze

This recipe is as good as it sounds. It may be the best thing I've ever cooked (which obviously means it's an easy recipe). The glaze is a great spicy and sweet combination that complements the flavor of the salmon. It's perfect over white rice.

YUM!

My new favorite bar...

My two favorite places to get drinks in Old Town are Restaurant Eve and The Majestic, so I was thrilled when I found out that Cathal and Meshelle Armstrong were opening Virtue Feed and Grain, an Irish pub/lounge.  My two favorite bartenders (Ken and Mike) moved to Virtue, so I knew the drinks would live up to their reputation.  I wasn't disappointed, my all time favorite cocktail, Eve's Temptation is back on the menu at Virtue after being out of rotation at Restaurant Eve for over a year.  Not to mention, the prices are more moderate.  I like the casual feel and atmosphere at Virtue, but it can get quite loud on Friday and Saturday nights.  Overall, it's a great addition to the waterfront and definitely my favorite place to hang out this summer!
