Working lunches are pretty much the standard for us. There isn't a lot of free time when you run a startup, so we make the best of it. Today, we really made the best of it. Our Social Media Queen, Taylor, told us that one of our favorite taco places in LA, Escuela Taqueria, was BYOB. Lightbulb! Margaritas and Tacos, you get the picture. We grabbed our Smoke Y Margarita Cocktail Kit, a bottle of Tequila and headed out for a "working" lunch. Escuela set us up with glasses and ice and the rest is history. We had a blast. We made drinks together, laughed, ate tacos and yes, we had a "working" lunch.

BYOB restaurants are a great way to enjoy delicious food and great cocktails without being too rough on the wallet. Check your local EATER or INFATUATION restaurant listings (or old school google)for a list of BYOB restaurants. Keep some of your favorite cocktail kits on hand (we've got a hell of a selection) and grab a bottle. It's a great way to spark some new conversation at the table and enjoy some down time. I heard that's good for you.....
