Also in Hollywood, we checked out a place called Hungry Cat on another recommendation by the Drunken Tomato.
Hungry Cat has three California locations and specializes in seafood and raw bar.
That’s why it’s only natural that you can choose to add an oyster to your bloody mary:
Mix: Homemade
Chaser: Yes
Fixin’s: Lemon, Lime, Carrot, Celery, Oyster and ??
Price: $15 for “Matchbox,” plus $3 for the oyster
Usually, we agree with Drunken Tomato on what constitutes a good bloody, so I’m going to say that maybe I just had a bad shake… As you can see by the photo, this Bloody Mary was almost translucent, so it was quite strong. Maybe not a good vodka-mix ratio.
We also still aren’t sure what the pink item in our drink was. It looked like ginger, but was rock hard… and we couldn’t place the taste.
The oyster was good, but it wasn’t served in a shell.
Finally, at $18, this was the steepest price we paid for a bloody.
We’d give Hungry Cat another shot for dinner, but think we’ll skip the bloody mary next time.
