Color-coding Roy G’s Pridetastic shot list ARNOLD WAYNE JONES | Executive Editorjones@dallasvoice.com A friend who had his gay card punched years ago admitted sheepishly that it was just last week he figured out why Roy G’s, the newest bar and restaurant on The Strip, was called Roy G’s.
If you’re similarly puzzled, it stands for ROY G BIV, the mnemonic for remembering the color spectrum (red-orange-yellow-green-blue-indigo-violet… though in the Pride flag those last two are melded into just purple).
So it’s totally in keeping with its namesake that the menu includes a shot list of seven concoctions (they do the entire rainbow, not just the Pride flag), each named for a color, but inspired by a traditional full-sized cocktail.
