Happy Hour at Lotus Blue, Union Square, NYC

Not sure about you, but I love happy hour specials! I noticed a sign in the window of Lotus Blue when walking by, announcing their special pricing Monday to Friday 5 to 7 for the summer of 2018 and made a date to meet a friend there.

I opted for their refreshing house spicy Margarita, a mere $6, made with mango juice. Unusual and delicious. With that, I chose two of their good specials, their scallion pancakes ($5) that were too bland for me even with their hoisin-based dipping sauce and their yummy spicy chicken cubes ($7), with a solid spice kick. I’d recommend the latter.
