Fun Facts About Happy Hour


Before we dive into Happy Hour at Li'l Rizzo's, let's take a look at some fun facts about the happiest of all the hours in the day. 

- The term Happy Hour originated in the 1920s. It referred to the time when sailors in the Navy were away from their shifts. Happy Hour usually involved boxing or wrestling as well as some drinks. 

- American Express and Technomic conducted a study and found out that the main reason Americans visit Happy Hour is for the discounted drinks, not the spending time with friends. However, at Li'l Rizzo's we enjoy both!

- Ironically, drinks before dinner were not common until prohibition. Americans would visit the Speakeasy or consume drinks at home before heading out to dinner. The naval slang "Happy Hour" became known as this time of consuming drinks before dinner. 

- In Ireland, Happy Hour is illegal. Well, not exactly Happy Hour itself. Since 2003, it is illegal to sell drinks at a discounted price. In fact, it is the only country to prohibit the concept of Happy Hour.

The Origins of Appetizers

An appetizer is a small dish of food or a drink taken before a meal or the main course of a meal to stimulate one's appetite. Who decided we needed food before more food?

Wealthy Frenchmen picked at hors d’oeuvres throughout fancy meals from the late 17th through the mid-19th centuries.

Americans began emulating that french dining model, by placing these bites of food on the table to be served throughout the meal as a pala...

The one that confuses us the most though, is draught and draft...how do we know which one to use, or how to pronounce it? Li'l Rizzo's has the best bar at the Lake of the Ozarks , so we're curious what the difference is between draught and draft. Draught Definition : A serving of drink (usually alcoholic) drawn from a keg. This could potentially save you from a very embarrassing night at the bar!

A widget is a small plastic ball that you'll find in the can of your favorite draug...

The meu at Li'l Rizzo's has a variety of different types of pasta. Why All These Shapes and Sizes?  Chefs use different shapes and sizes of pasta for different purposes because certain shapes hold different sauces better than others.
