There are days when a bag of cold popcorn will do, and there are days when your oh-so-spoiled side kicks in full-force, and all you can meditate on is high-quality cuisine, preferably sans the high costs or time investment.
Our friendly neighborhood “bar with food” Quality Social is putting the happy back in happy hour with two new menus representing a genuine and genuinely delicious farm-to-table movement for post-work social hour or a night-owl late happy hour. The menus aren’t full of yesterday’s fries shipped from the off-skirts of Nebraska, but rather they embrace house-made values while blessing your budget for choosing wisely.
Handcrafted Happy Hour at Quality Social means superior food, house cured, artisanal and so locally sourced it almost hurts, at happy hour prices that are tempting enough to make you pack up your bag to leave the office this very minute. The award-winning Executive Chef Jared Van Camp brings his passionate support of local farmers and everything local to the extensive Quality Social menu, turning good ol’ bar food into fine cuisine. The unpretentious farm-to-table bill of fare reflects some of the new cutting edge trends in the cooking industry you may have only heard about watching Top Chef.
From Monday to Friday, 5-7pm, get in on the sizzling action stirring up in the kitchen. Grab a bite out of $2 Deviled Eggs or go “big” with a $6 Mac & cheese that includes a comforting amount of stilton blue, cheddar & Swiss cheese with buttered breadcrumbs. The house-made cuisine happy hour turns it up a notch with Duck Wings featuring harissa and cucumber-mint raita, also for only $6. $3 drafts, house wine, wells, and picklebacks should be of greatest assistance as you digest whatever treats you just inhaled.
Now I for one know that if you’ve had a late night of party-hopping from FLUXX to Side Bar and everywhere in between, there comes a time when any more dancing is just unreasonable without a late night refueling snack sesh. If you haven’t craved insane amounts of meat while intoxicated, you aren’t drinking enough my friend. New at Quality Social, you can enjoy the finest house cured meats at $2 prices, Monday through Friday from 10pm to 12am. The expansive variety of all charcuterie meats include Coppa, cured pork shoulder, Potted Rilette, duck and cognac, Pepperone done Hungarian style, and Soprestta, spicy salumi. All salted, smoked and cured, reach for the meats that are sure to hit the spot.
In addition to the great prices, remember that everything at Quality Social is created in-house, meaning the local and sustainable features of the best foods are always emphasized to the fullest. For more info, call 866.535.0929 or visit Quality Social in San Diego.
