Einstein's Bloody BrunchPublished on: 11/03/2005
BLOODY BRUNCH
Who knew there were so many ways to clear out the cobwebs the morning after. At Einstein's (1077 Juniper St., Midtown), the salad bar scenario is given a Bloody Mary twist. Hot sauces of various octanes, spiced shrimp, stuffed olives and asparagus are among the 20 ingredient options. Creations run between $5.50 and $7.50 depending on the vodka. Einstein's Bloody Mary bar is available as part of its weekend brunch from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.

A TASTE OF ALE
Those looking to branch out from their typical beer habits have an option at Cheyenne Grill and Sports Bar (2391 Peachtree Road, Atlanta). Its weekly beer tasting event pours every Monday from 7:30 to 9 p.m. For $10, guests fill their respective bellies with four beer and appetizer samples. And its draft selection ain't too shabby with 23 beers on tap.
SCOTCH IT TO ME
Speaking of tastings, Buckhead's Morton's steakhouse (3379 Peachtree Road, Buckhead) plays host to a Johnnie Walker event on Monday. It's all part of a celebration for the brand's 200th birthday. Scotch aficionado Brad Jarvis takes drinkers on a tasting exploration featuring Johnnie Walker's new Green Label, as well as the vintage Red and Black blends. Johnnie Walker cocktails join Morton's appetizers like sea scallops and petite filet mignon sandwiches. Tickets are $40 each.
