In the Spotlight: Foundation Bar
For the inaugural edition of a new feature series In the Spotlight, designed to highlight local destinations that stand out among the crowd, I decided to shine the spotlight on Foundation Bar because of their inventive seasonal cocktails, commitment to North Carolina draft beers, stunning architectural design, and of course, their new Summer drink menu.

Thankfully they were generous enough to allow me to take some pictures of the new drinks which I have published below the fold.
