    Bottega Cafe or Fon Fon are perfect for what you described.

    The ECMWF model has performed much better in the medium range this year, and is supported by the Canadian global model. And, the NAM, which runs out to 84 hours, seems to be leaning toward the dry solution as well. The SREF ensemble is looking pretty dry as well.

    Went to Hickory Tavern yesterday for the first time to watch my boogs upset Kentucky and some NFL action. Their wings were damn good, but the three random tortilla chips on the plate were a little odd. Service was surprisingly good considering how slammed they were.

    Also I know it's been said before but the new PTs sucks. Would definitely do Hickory over PTs in the future.

    I remember during one of last year's snow days you posted a link to a graph that plotted the various model predictions for snow accumulation. Can you post that again? Curious what it shows for Friday.

    Went to Cahaba Brewing's soft opening at their new place near Avondale. Pretty nice building, neighborhood around it is a bit rough though.

    Goddamnit. I'm still waiting for them to carry it in Nashville. They carry basically everything else at our stores around here

    On their Instagram, they said they sell it from Nashville to Mobile and to check their beer tracker app to see where they sell it in your area. HTH

    I actually did that as soon as I saw Levars post. No stores showing up within 50 miles.

    Edit: I meant carrying Snakehandler. Should have been more clear in the first post. We have the Pale, Oatmeal Stout, IPA, etc. but not Snake Handler

    Hmm. Maybe. It wasn't a map but just a chart with a bunch of different lines for each model run. It showed the mean, etc. Maybe I'm thinking of something else. Snow plume or something like that?

    I'll vouch for Cahabas new spot. Also sitting at the bar at wooden goat and it seems legit.

    Go to a local beer place that carries Good People and ask him to speak to his beer rep about getting some Snake.

    Tried that at one store that carries Good people but was probably a bit late asking last year. I'll do it again this year.

    From what it seems they have Avondale beer and they are distilling vodka and gin. They use the small amount of vodka and gin they distill to make draft cocktails for the restaurant. So yes there is booze but as far as I'm concerned not really.

    The food was excellent though.

    Here is the menu since they don't seem interested in having a half decent web presence.
