Wednesday Night at Rosebud means absinthe, when they shine a dim light on all manner of drinks based on the spirit. Just tell William what you like. I like gin with my absinthe, in martini proportions. One herbaceous and aromatic spirit gets chummy with the other, and it’s as if you’ve been transported to a mountain summit, your throat sucking down the cold scent of evergreens, with a hint of licorice cough drop. In a good way.Rosebud Restaurant & Bar (719 E. Pike St.) Be warned or take note, whatever your mood: Happy hour–until 8:30pm–can be packed with singles. Plan your date with the fey verte accordingly…and you were aware of the extra long happy hour, oui?)
