Wait a minute.

You didn't even pop for the souvenir glass and you're going to tell the story for years to come?

For shame.

I know. Lame, right? Had I known how bad the drink was actually going to be I would've sprung for the souvenir glass. Umm, next time?

And though we sat inside for a couple songs, we did make it out to the flaming fountain. Truly, a sight to behold.

Dont sweat it, you can get the glass in a thrift shop at some point.

The Hurricane is a truely horrible drink. Most of the knockoffs are more swallow-able, if not good.

Sadly, the bar doesnt serve "flaming jelly beans", which are possible the perfect drink to go w the fountain.

Wine gelee, tropical fruits, whipped cream

Very pretty

I would've preferred a broken gelee, mounded into a bowl, with smaller fruit slices throughout. If anything I would've reimagined the dish to put the whipped cream in a thin layer at the bottom, perhaps lightly gelling that.

Jello salad, in other words.
