Martini Mondays

My first happy hour!  And I'm not even 21 yet!  Ohh the thrill of being an "underage" American ordering alcohol in Italy!

I don't usually drink.  I actually took my first two shots on my last night in America.  Alcohol is definitely an acquired taste and I don't think I'm actually ever going to enjoy drinking.  The martini was not as bitter compared to some of the wines that I've had here but I could still taste the bitter sting of the alcohol.  And it doesn't help that I started to feel buzzed in the head after a few sips!  #lightweightproblems

So how did this all happen in the first place?

I met with my group at Astor Cafe to work on a project for my international marketing class (I know, we have projects already).  We started to get reallllllly hungry after using our brains too much.  And then we found out about Martini Mondays.  With the purchase of a martini (7 euros), you get a free buffet!  Well, its not really free but for 7 euros, come on!  So Kelsey, one of my group members, and I decided to treat ourselves to some delicious martinis and even more delicious pasta, quinoa, pizza, and more!  YUM!  With my too-lazy-to-cook diet in full swing, I might just become a regular at Astor just for Martini Mondays.
