Last week, my Tampa Bay blog mates and I were invited by our friends over at Ker’s Winghouse Bar and Grill to sample their new sensation menu for the summer! Can I just tell you how EXCITED I was to have the opportunity to mingle with my blog mates and give my taste buds a treat all in the same setting?  It.was.phenomenal. I’ve always had the impression that bar food was just that. bar.food. Little to my surprise, Winghouse was about to change my perception on that.

Here’s my TOP 8 reasons why WINGHOUSE is less than unORDINARY!

1.  Warm and chewy ( I mean chewy) soft pretzel bites that will have your taste buds screaming for seconds.  The best part is dunking these into warm Wisconsin cheese sauce or honey mustard. It’s a win/win.
2.  This pile of goodness is slow roasted pork nachos!  Drop the forks and dive right in!  This dish allows for messy fingers. 
3. If I could have chicken like this in my life every day, I’d be a happy camper.  This chicken pasta salad was unbelievably good!  :::faints:::
4. Don’t like wings?  No problem!  Winghouse has certainly got you covered with all these different types of dishes.  Check out this taco salad for instance.  The flavors that can happen in one little bowl, is aaahhhmazzing! The fried jalapenos and cilantro lime cream sauce is certainly the staple for most of these dishes. 
5. Winghouse takes “Taco Tuesday” to a whole new level with these beauts!  Tacos stuffed with tender shrimp, chicken or slow roasted pork topped with fresh ingredients and cheese = NAIL’D IT!
6. Pulled pork sliders.  Need I say more?  For a second, I forgot that this was Winghouse. Coleslaw, crispy onion straws and Dallas sauce = perfection!
7.  Then there was this…If you like cheesecake and guava, then you’ll LOVE the guava cheesecake!  OMG. 
8. AND… if I could nominate a cocktail of the year, it would have to be this lemon smash drink!  All the flavors were spot on and made me feel like I was on a beach somewhere…

SO…

Hungry?

Well I’ve gotcha covered.  As of today, June 13th and for a limited time, you can now have the same experience as I in diving into some of these amazing dishes!

Father’s Day is right around the corner…

So what’s behind the word ¡CUATRO anyways?

From the website: The inspiration for ¡Cuatro not only came from the word “Fore!” shouted across the TPC Tampa Bay golf course, but also from the four culinary influences Chefs Michael Toscano and Wes Morton bring from their own family tables: Mexican, Italian, Cajun and American home cooking. Together, they’ve created a seasonal menu of layered culinary traditions that celebrates curiosity, passion and Florida’s local ingredients. Unexpected flavors sizzle in classic dishes, like Chorizo Meatball Jambalaya and Grilled Niman Ranch Pork Chops with creamy polenta and peperonata – all expertly paired with thoughtfully chosen wines.

¡CUATRO resides on a beautiful golf course overlooking acres of greenery!  The moment you walk into this premier clubhouse tucked away in Lutz, FL you feel like you’re a celebrity, that celebrity status feeling comes from the beautiful décor, the luxurious paintings on the wall, the marble floors, the 5 star treatment from the staff…DO I SAY MORE?

So, you ready to taste ¡CUATRO?

 WELCOME to ¡CUATRO. Get ready to have your taste buds come ALIVE!!!

 BUT first, lemme take a selfie 🙂

 Talk about getting cheese wasted…I did 🙂  This Cheese & Meat Board consisted of Serrano Ham, Calabese Salami, Maytag Bleu Cheese, Grafton Cheddar and Idiazabel Hard Cheese. Make sure to get you some!!

 This Chorizo Meatball Jambalaya dish is just full of all sorts of yumminess!  So many creative flavors all bundled into one!  

 Who doesn’t love a hefty bin of wings?  These Jerk Chicken Wings literally fell off the wing.  Boy, sure wish I had some right about now.

 It was a match made in mason jar heaven!  Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake Mousse!

 Who says you can’t have PEAS in your guacamole?  This was a different way to eat my guac!  Spring Pea Guacamole with Sunflower seeds!  YUM!

 This colorful SALSA was mouth-watering good!  So full of flavor and I kept going back for 3rds!

 LOOK, something purrty is floating in my Cactus Hat Margarita!  I would’ve sipped and sipped and sipped on these ALL EVENING!  So refreshing!

 No Ordinary Bloody Mary for No Ordinary Liz and I must say, I approve!  WOW, this was pretty tasty and the fact that it involved BACON…WINNING!!  Just one of the fancy signature cocktails of the evening, ¡CUATRO Bloody Mary!

 This restaurant & bar isn’t off limits to the outside world so to speak.  They cater to weddings, private parties or any other event you can think of.
