Try the taste of tarot at Midnight Cowboy 

A Speakeasy just rolled out a tarot inspired drink menu

and it's definitely worth making a night of.

there's a light at an abandoned looking door without signage.

It's the kind of place hidden in plain sight

stand at the front door and they'll come greet you

you'll enter the hidden world of Midnight Cowboy.

I loooooove a good ambiance and unlike the rowdiness of the bars around it,

they'll give you books for their new Midnight Cowboy Arcona menu

full of drinks inspired by tarot cards and their meanings.

The presentation had me tasting and drinking with my eyes

but then I'd actually drink it and was blown away.

Plus they were really strong in my opinion.

My two recommendations would be to make a

reservation during the week to avoid the crowds of

6th Street and to bring your own Tarot deck to do readings because what better place?

All you got to do is make a reservation with

your mystical loving bestie and come check it out soon!

First, head over to the OLAF sculpture Garden and Museum.

The outdoor garden is exquisite and full of breathtaking sculptures.

So even when it's hot outside, it’s still refreshing just to walk around or sit on the benches.

We liked this particular piece so much that we even tried to reenact it.

It wasn't perfect, but we still had fun while doing it.

The museum inside has spectacular pieces of work and you can see the level of detail each artist puts into their craft.

And you can even have a guided tour where they will talk into more details on each piece.

Once you finish at the museum, head over to Arriba Abajo.

It's a rooftop cantina in the Thompson Hotel.

As soon as you reach the elevator, you can hear the music and feel the vibes.

The restaurant has a beautiful outdoor section filled with couches and tables.

And on top of that, there’s even a pool.

So if you want to go for a swim on a hot day, it is perfect.

The indoor section has great ambience as well and plenty of space.

As always, I recommend starting off with some drinks.

I suggest you try the Margarita and the Island Heat.

For appetizers, I strongly recommend the lobster quesadilla pizza.

It is absolutely delicious and just look at how cheesy it is when you bite into it.  Unbelievable.

For entrees, both the carne asada fajitas as well as the chili crusted prawns are fantastic.

So, see the notes for more details and make it happen soon.
