Ocean's Heaven

By Jason Kerr | Thu, July 29, 2010

See a slideshow of Ocean's chef at work. I took a sip from my $9 margarita as I sat with two beautiful ladies at Ocean's. The drink was like a martini, but with fresh lime and subtle hints of liqueurs in the back finish. Heaven! As the tequila wa... More »
