What started as a quick “drink and dessert” stop turned into one of the greatest restaurant experiences of our lives. The wife I and I enjoyed a fabulous dinner at the Blind Pig and decided to stop at 732 Social for a slice of red velvet/carrot cake and a few cocktails to finish the night. We arrived around six, took seats at the bar, and watched the kitchen work. We went with the bartenders recommendations on the drinks and were not disappointed. As we were demolishing our cake a management looking gentleman began to chat us up. He asked us where we had dinner, where we were from, and how the cocktails and drinks were. The conversation led to the big ass ribeye and that we were scared of it. He assured us there was nothing to fear and pulled one from the fridge. 32 ounces of meat heaven staring us in the face. He then proceeds to wrap the thing up and give it to us. Only one string attached, send him an email and let him know how we liked it. How awesome is that? We ordered another round and he pulled up a bar stool and the conversation continued. He starting telling us about Social’s farms, where they are in 100% control of the beef, chicken, and vegetable quality. They decide the exact day the cows and chickens are harvested. You will notice the chickens at Social are very small, that’s because they like the flavor and texture of smaller birds. Just as the conversation is dying off, we are offered a tour of the “Green Building”. Another cocktail and we were on our way. The building is fantastic. It has a living wall, roof top herb garden, rain water recycling system, solar panels, electric car ports, recycled barn wood, and a fantastic view of the city. As the tour concluded, the unknown gentlemen handed me his business card. It read:

Does it get any better?
