The White Horse, a champion among dives, is a fun, low-key, homey mom and pop-style establishment. The woman who runs it is Russian or otherwise Eastern European and is adorable as she runs around the tables making everyone at home. Free peanuts and popcorn are de rigeur, and if you're lucky, she'll make you a hot dog too. I once had the weakest kamikaze ever here (not made by the owner) but a friend assures me that the matron herself makes the mixes them plenty strong. Just watch while they pour, and if in doubt, order a beer.
