Martinis & nachos on Lemmon

Some people only enter the family business when they're good and ready, like Ron Reagan, who before diving into the political realm performed as a ballet dancer, which was definitely contra-ry to his father's wishes. Jumping back in but charting his own course, the guy behind Honey Shack.Honey's backed by Jimmy Liu, whose family ran a Chinese joint in the same space (they own the building) from the mid-'70s through the early '80s; after a successful career as an entrepreneur, Liu's now finally entering the food world, partnering with longtime friend Ozzy Samano on an upscale take on the classic breastaurant complete with short-skirted waitresses, comfortable TV-equipped booths, and unvarnished wood and flagcrete to refine an overall mellow yellow vibe, also the adult toy preferred by Donovan's wife. High-end comfort vittles include grilled tenderloin nachos, ribs topped with Tabasco-infused onion rings, burgers rocking hand-formed ½lb patties, wood-fired pizzas (the Specialty: tenderloin, mozz, caramelized onions, bell peppers), grilled Seabass Picatta, and a whiskey-peppercorn-gravy'd chicken-fried rib-eye Samano says you can cut with a fork, totally ruining Bryan Adams' shot at sweet endorsement dollars. Intoxicants tend towards the eponymous, from the Killer Bee Martini (dark honey, Patron XO Cafe, Seagram's 7, Bailey's) to shots like the Ketel, Frangelico, Bailey's and honey simple syrup Nuttin' Honey (if you contract this condition, consult your apiologist). Because what-would-Deluise-do, you can/should also snag bonus fatness like a homemade ice cream sandwich w/ caramel and chocolate dipping sauces, rocky road chocolate fudge cake, and a homemade fried apple pie -- finish that, and it will definitely be bedtime for Bonzo.
