From Muddy Waters to Lorelei in East Liberty on a date night!

Location 124 South Highland Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA, 15206

After being tested on whether I was having west coast or east coast oysters at Muddy Waters, my boyfriend and I strolled around East Liberty on a warm Thursday night to Lorelei close by. To note, I did guess correctly on whether I was trying west or east coast oysters. It’s a little skill I think I have with all my travels around the United States for work.

There is no taste of overwhelming liquor but instead a hint of lemon and kick of rosemary delights as you put your mouth to the rim of the glass.

Asked the waitress for a mint-y, vodka drink

Received this dashing artwork - delightful to the last drop!

Cheers!
