My New Favorite Beverage Location: Daiquiri’s To Go

|

Spider Monkey and I were returning from Fuel City, where we’d filled our bellies with delicious tacos, when I spotted a joint off Industrial, on Market Center Boulevard, called Daiquiri’s To Go. The apostrophe. I know. It killed me, too. But how the heck do you serve a daiquiri to go? I mean, that right there is the definition of an open container. I was intrigue’d. So we swung through.

Daiquiri’s To Go might have the best menu in Dallas. Check out this selection of beverage names: Chasity [sic, I think] sits on the menu right atop Sex in Dallas; there’s Pink Panties right next to Pulled 2 Da Side; and there’s the Make U Wet, the D-Ware #94 [I’m sure with Cowboys approval], and the Recession. Solid choices, all. But how do they get away with serving an alcoholic beverage to go? You can see from the picture: they seal it in a plastic bag (as displayed by Spider Monkey). The smallest size was 16 ounces ($6); the largest is 1 gallon ($25). We, of course, waited until we’d gotten back to the office before we poked the straw through the plastic bag and drank it.

If you’re route home this Friday eve takes you past the joint, I highly recommend it.
