Happy Hour @ View Bar


Friday night found me sipping champagne at the View Bar's new weekly cocktail party. This being the Regent, and this being Bal Harbour the nibblings were tip top: ceramic spoons of tuna tartar, polenta topped with onions and blue cheese, cucumber rounds with smoked salmon.

We were worlds away from Shuckers (oh but I do love Shuckers, it's just that sometime you want to get all swanked out). And from 6pm-8pm the champagne is complimentary. And this being the Regent and this being Bal Harbour they put out the good stuff (Piper-Heidsieck to be sure). And the crowd was quite impressive, lots of young vivacious things representing the "new" Bal Harbour. You've heard of them, right? They don't have old money but lots and lots of new money? That's a good crowd. They like their bars with a view and a live DJ and thankfully this one has both.
So where will you be Friday night?
