The Penguin

Not long ago, I was sitting in what I consider to be one of the better kept secrets of Mission Hill. It was a Friday night and inside, The Penguin was beginning to fill up rapidly with local patrons. My friends and I had just sat down at the bar to peruse the beer menu consisting of over 300 bottles and taps. I chose a 22oz Arrogant Bastard and had just began to pour it when my friend looked over to me and asked if we should move. When I asked what for? He motioned towards Mayor Menino who was standing right behind us. At the time, The Penguin was so busy that Mayor Menino could not find a place for him and a couple of his staff to eat.
