The party was going fine until the wine ran out and Tap decided to leave Saratoga

Mehtap's Last Call
Our evening of farewell to Saratoga began at Mehtap's favorite restaurant, The Mexican Connection (Yes, I was just there on Monday night!). 

Skidmore folks showed up en masse - we were joined by Phred, Margo, Robin, Kate, and Desiree.

Robin (my tech manager) - margarita, straight up with salt
After our fill of papeo and bebidas we ventured to the back patio of The Adelphi (located at 365 Broadway). Filled with lush ivies and vibrant palm frawns, the brick courtyard of The Adelphi is simply stunning - a must see in Saratoga. If it weren't for the Adirondack chairs you'd think you were in Kauai.

Shortly after arriving Roberta, Kris and Ryan stopped by and we ordered a round of tropical rum-based beverages.

WB Bids Adieu
Our final stop of the evening was... Can you guess? The Wine Bar, of course.

Joe and Mehtap
Since it was a quiet night at the WB I was able to spend some time catching up with Beth (an incredibly lovely and gifted server) and assisting Whitney (a new server who started less than two weeks ago) with a tasting of reds. But alas, this is about Mehtap's last night in Saratoga, so I'll leave the tasting for another post.

Farewell, Tap! Best Wishes and Much Love!!
