The Bar Necessities

Martini Park Opens

Chances are, you’ll emerge from the holidays with your family more shaken than stirred.

So take a breather and head to the newly opened Martini Park. The Plano bar serves plenty of drinks (more than twenty varieties of 007’s favorite) to calm nerves; and everything on the menu’s cocktail size, so you can sample a bit of each.

Go ahead and order a Kobe beef, pulled barbecue pork, chicken, or filet mignon slider on a toasted brioche bun (drizzled with top-secret sauce). Before long you’ll be indulging in a batch of homemade doughnuts sprinkled with confectioner’s sugar and served with a hot fudge and raspberry dipping sauce.

Of course, that won’t do much for your diet. But it will refuel you for the inevitable task that awaits.

Bonding. Family bonding.

Martini Park, 7200 Bishop Road, Plano (214-473-6644 or martinipark.com).
