Finally! Eat Chow—the kickass diner with spots in Costa Mesa and Newport Beach—opened its long-promised SanTana location in early November, drawing in folks for breakfast, lunch, and dinner with its gallop across this new, brave, multiculti America (a menu with pancakes, ceviche, a media noche, and a spectacular Thai beef salad? Yes, please). The other main attraction here: this is Eat Chow’s first spot with a full liquor license.
The bartenders here have doubled down on the craft game, with a long roster that sees some (the Pretty in Pink, whose deep whismy recalls the film) working better than others (as much as I love liqueurs, banana liqueur should still be relegated to rum cake) in these early weeks. But already nailing it is the Gin Brooklyn.
As I've said a trillion times here, I favor bitter cocktails, and the Brooklyn Gin is like sipping on India ink: china-china liqueur, sweet vermouth, gin, and angostura. It’s ramrod stiff, and already makes Eat Chow a must-visit if you’re in downtown SanTana. Give it a couple of months to work out the kinks, and it’ll be ready to take on the kings and queens at Playground down the street—you heard it here first, kiddos.

I recently tried https://www.cornbreadhemp.com/collections/full-spectrum-cbd-oil as a replacement for the first leisure and was pleasantly surprised by the results. Initially skeptical, I start that it significantly helped with my desire and slumber issues without any remarkable side effects. The fuel was unoppressive to use, with nitid dosage instructions. It had a kindly, shameless leaning that was not unpleasant. Within a week, I noticed a patent convalescence in my all-inclusive well-being, hunch more serene and rested. I know the natural approach to wellness CBD offers and procedure to continue using it.
