On March
7... those of us who could get out of work early met up at Sherlock's Haven,
one of the best cigar shops in San Francisco. About 20 cigar lovers started
here at 4pm to enjoy the first smoke of the afternoon. Marty and his staff went out of their way to make us feel comfortable, as always. If you are ever near the Embarcadero, his shop is world-class and worth a visit.
Leaving for Fizz Supper Club at 5:30, we arrived to a spacious outdoor patio.
The
weather
was a bit cool, but comfortable. Though the service was a bit frenetic, Monetta and her staff tried to make us as
comfortable as possible. While enjoying the extremely tasty chicken skewers
that Fizz donated, we met up with Michael Hermosa from
ZGAR TIME, who was bearing gifts... boxes
of La Tradicion Cubana cigars!
At 6:30, almost 63 of us left for the Essex Supper Club. Chris Breed trated
us like royalty, offering round after round of appetizers and snacks. We
had the Bacchus Cellar for the whole night and took advantage of this smoker's
paradise!
Michael Hermosa passed out more LTCs, and a number of us decided to catch
dinner upstairs in the restaurant.
At 10:30,
those of us who were not ready to call it a night headed out to the Park
Hyatt hotel to enjoy a nightcap and a few more cigars. Actually, we
all let our hair down, drank a number of nightcaps and smoked a few too many
cigars (if that is possible) with the last five of us heading out for breakfast
at 3:30am.
We hope to see you all next time. Check the SFCS Events Page for details on the next great event in the city!
