Lately...
Currently, my nails.

VYNL @ 754 9th Avenue & 51st Street, NYC, 10019.
Hungry and hunting for a Happy Hour, my Momma & I stumbled upon this place.
Adorable, inexpensive, strong/cheap frozen drinks & yummy food.
Frozen peach margarita & frozen Cosmopolitan (5$ each during Happy Hour).
Momma Dearest.
Cheeseburger Eggrolls with Thousand Island dressing ($6):
Of course, as soon as my Momma & I spotted these on the menu,
we just had to give them a shot. They were alright, a tad on the weird side.
Not exactly my favorite, but worth trying.

Panko Breaded Chicken Tenders with Honey Mustard dipping sauce ($7):
These were delicious, including the honey mustard. On point.

Sweet Potato Fries ($5):
They really give you a lot of fries here and they were delicious,
I couldn't stop eating them.
Only thing I would have changed are the dipping sauces.
With sweet potato fries, we usually prefer a sweet dipping sauce -
They gave us blue cheese & ketchup, eh... Still delicious, though.

Buttermilk Marinated Onion Rings with Blue Cheese dipping sauce ($5):
These were just PURE YUM.


I really enjoyed our late lunch/early dinner at this place.
Definitely plan on returning, especially for Happy Hour.


Later in the evening, I linked up with my boyfriend...
Who seems to show me that he loves me in the strangest ways.
I appreciate his creativity and efforts, though.
Sweetest thing.

Hope you all enjoyed reading/watching!
XO
