Sexy Spirits:
ZIG ZAG CAFɼ/B>
This is what happens when the bartenders own the place: It's a drinker's paradise, a low-key, no-frills hideaway tucked under Western Avenue on the Pike Street Hillclimb. Owners Ben and Kacy are also bartenders extraordinaire. Plus they have Murray Stenson, one of the best bartenders in town. There's no stumping them with outlandish drink requeststhey know just about everything there is to do with spirits, including a few things you've probably never heard of. Recently remodeled when the bartenders bought the place from the former owners, the bar and dining room are all dark and stylish, with a classic teak-trimmed bar and voluptuous, curved green-mohair-and-mahogany banquette seating. Sure, the Mediterranean-influenced menu is trendy, but with a Salumi alum heading up the kitchen, specialties like the roasted chicken risotto or the grilled anchovy sandwich can transcend trendiness. The Moroccan-spiced three-bean dip with cumin-crusted crostini may be the perfect snack. K.M.
