Basic Bar is a great little bar in old Roseville. It is what it is. Basic. Stone walls, concrete floors, minimum furniture, full bar, simple menu. Overall, it really pares it down to just what you need.

And of course, the best reason - one of our favorite waitresses! Alescha is not only super-cute, but she writes a whole page in our journal, then comes back and does a read for us. She is a Thursday Drunk favorite!

We had two of the uber-thin pizzas, and shared a basic salad that was big enough to feed all 8 of us. All the wines by the glass are $7 which is lovely and easy.

Pizza one: White sauce, mashed potato, bacon, basil and garlic

Pizzas two: Red sauce, mushroom, sausage, olive and garlic

Discussion topics ranged from political philosophy to explaining what taint is (or isn't), from grammar arguments about conjunctions vs. contractions to secret Halloween outfits. On the scale of intelligence we really yo-yoed from the very top to the very bottom. I can't tell you all the great ideas we came up with this night, because they are just that good! Taintastic or Taintacular, depending on who you ask.
