The list that gained me entry into the exclusive invite-only Citysearch party at Alibi: http://boston.citysearch.com/list/199571
The staff at Alibi were kind enough to put aside an area of lounge seats and a few couches for our takeover. The night started off with a review of their drink menu and complimentary beverages on the bar. I started trying the "Sanchez" (mix of cazadores reposado, lime, oj, and agave nectar) served on the rocks.
The staff were beyond hospitable and then brought us out bites from their Scampo Bar Bites menu. One of my favorites which I do not have a picture of, were these cheese quesedilla type bites, lightly fried with gooey cheese, a nice pairing to the strong tequila. The following pictures are a small sampling of the food we tried.
Caprese Salad
Truffled Polenta Fries
Asparagus Pizza

The drink I finished with and liked the most was "Rehab" (stoli ohranj, st germain, and prosecco) - fantastic! It was great to see everyone and I finally got to meet Robin (@Dovesandfigs her blog is: www.dovesandfigs.wordpress.com) and her friend and we all shared a great conversation.

It was a great evening and cannot wait to see everyone again. Big thank yous to Citysearch Boston (Christine) for setting it up and Alibi Bar and Lounge for their generous offerings of food and drink, and the $20 gift certificate for a return visit! I will be back soon.
