    Went to the grand opening of the Under the Radar Brewery today. It was a nice. It's like a neighborhood block party brewery. The beers were good. They had about 6 to 8 beers I believe.

    You expected much from a neighborhood brewery? I heard their soft open wasn't good. They ran out of everything real early?

    I love Hugo's too. Just counted and I'm 15/25. Can't believe I still haven't been to oxheart.

    I've been to 8. Of the 8 I've been to I would rank them

    1. Underbelly-their flash fried vegetables in fish sauce is probably my favorite dish.
    2. Hugo's - been a few times and always loved it. Still need to go to their brunch
    3. Pax Americana - only been once and it was prix fix NYE. Honestly don't remember anything because I was so fucked up but it was fun as shit.
    4. Da Marco - really solid date spot. Big fan.
    5. Uchi-that Brussels sprouts game so deluxe
    6. Tony's - way too many old people.
    7. Coltivare- no reservations is a huge pain in the ass and it's always packed
    8. Kata robata - I dunno I don't get the hype.

    I still think Pax has been the most consistently great restaurant I've frequented over the past two years. Never disappoints.

    Indika is really good. Only been once. I wanted to keep it weird so I got the goat brains. I could go back several times and not get to try everything I want to on that menu.
