Frank and Albert's (Phoenix, AZ)

On a late Sunday afternoon, Carli and I wanted to go somewhere for a quite bite and some good drinks in an outdoor area.  After a little searching, we came across Frank and Albert's at the Arizona Biltmore for their High Five Happy Hour.  It's nice they offer their happy hour every day (including weekends) from 5-7pm.  We sat outside in a gorgeous patio area looking over the Biltmore grounds.  To start we decided on a couple of their happy hour drinks: Lavender and Lemons (Rain Organic Lavender Lemonade Vodka, Lavender Infused Simple Syrup, Splash of Lemonade) and Chef Conor Favre's Basil Lemonade (Rain Organic Vodka, Fresh Biltmore Garden Grown Basil, Lemonade).  Both were refreshing drinks on a warm day.  I especially thought the Basil Lemonade was a good combination.

We then decided on getting one of each of their bar board specials: 4 choices for $5.

Red Tomato Gazpacho Shooter | Cooling Sour Cream

The Grilled Cheese Sandwich | American Cheese | Toasted White Bread

Rice Paper Roll | Sweet Shrimp | Sour Orange Dipping Sauce

Sweet Lobster Salad | Crisp Lettuce | Soft Roll

Gourmet Pretzel Bites | Cheddar Cheese Dip

BBQ Pork Slider | Country Style Coleslaw

Meatloaf Slider | Chipotle Glaze | Crispy Onions

Loaded Potato Skin | Aged Cheddar Cheese | Bacon | Scallions

Mini Root Beer Float | Vanilla Bean Soda

Watermelon Sorbet | Plump Summertime Blueberries

Moon Pie Slider | Powder Sugar Dust | Marshmallow Fluff

Carli's favorite was the Red Tomato Gazpacho Shooter, although it had a little too much sour cream compared to the gazpacho.  I couldn't decide whether I enjoyed the lobster roll or the watermelon sorbet more.  Carli decided to get another drink, this time going with the Oak Creek Brewing Company Hefeweizen.

This was a lot of great food and drink for not all that much during their happy hour.  It's definitely someplace we'll come back to, especially during the cooler weather so we can enjoy the outdoor area a little more.
