High Style Halloween
Blend held its first annual masquerade ball last night presented by Elite Entertainment. We entered to an amazingly well done spooky décor, including a fog machine. As usual, the bouncers were friendly and we received the obligatory hand stamp. Ladies received drink specials including ½ priced Belvedere blended cocktails. Leaving nothing to chance, they even provided the masks to add some mystery to the evening’s events. Sat Oct 31 at 10:00 PM don't miss the The Fang Banger Ball. www.spectrumhornband.com
Blend boasts of amazing chef’s, and we decided to try the tapas menu. Do not, I repeat, do not miss out on this culinary experience. Taste bud ecstasy is an understatement. Our server, Chardonnay, was bubbly, knowledgeable and made us feel most welcome and was truly enjoying what she was doing. Attentive, yet not hovering…Perfect!
Upon entering the rear bar, we were warmly welcomed and told to sit anywhere. Moments later one of the owners, Sarah, appeared out of nowhere having a melt down, as she was ranting and raving and telling us we couldn’t sit in out designated seats. I was under the assumption she was with Elite so I inquired as to her status and title as well as making a comment that she should be thrown out. Within minutes Lenore appeared. I came to find out Lenore and Svia are also owners. I have rarely, in all my time as a reviewer, met two people so professional and so accommodating. They had no idea I was there to review the bar, both were elegant and welcoming and apologized for the scene and did everything possible under the sun to make up for the previous debacle.
After being totally sated on tapas and Belvedere cocktails we made our way to the dance floor, winding back and forth through the front bar. The DJ was at the top of his game, and a drummer wove through the crowd with a primal beat that made even the most sheepish stand up and shake their groove thing. If you are looking for bottle service and VIP treatment, make sure to ask to be seated in the section that Taryn is working.
Owners like Svia and Lenore are the reason that customers are loyal and establishments such as Blend will be here for many, many years.
