Michaels Tuesday Wine Tasting

Tuesday, May 5, 2015

First Tuesday of the month is wine tasting at Michaels on Naples, www.michaelsonnaples,com,. Made plans to meet at 6:00.  Got there a little early and found out that there was no tasting tonight as they were painting the upstairs. OK on to plan B. Sat at the downstairs bar and ordered a Sidecar. They made it with Remy Martin and charged $14 for it and the liquid in the glass was short. Not happy. The taste was OK but the bartender had to look up the recipe to make the drink. Last year they had it in their stand up bar menu. Strange. 

My companion for the evening showed up with a bottle of wine. So we continued to sit at the bar, drank his wine along with him ordering a couple of glasses from the wine list.I ordered a plate of mushroom ravioli which was very good, But 8 small ravioli for $17 is pushing it. Michaels is expensive but sometimes they really push the button. No special prices for happy hour except on certain drinks and wine.. In spite of that the place was busy. Numerous people came in and left when they found that the upstairs was not available for the evening.

So hopefully next month the regular first Tuesday wine tasting will be back with no hitches.
