Anyone interested in 4 tickets to see Jason Isbell at the new amphitheatre tonight? Because if so I've got a deal for you!
Billie's Tavern has been turned over to a guy who made it no longer racist inside (but still plenty dive-y by all accounts) and it opens today. look forward to checkin it out
I used to live in Lakeview and walked in there with a buddy maybe 8-9 years ago. Just two normal looking 30 year old white guys. We asked to buy a beer and they begrudgingly served us, I gave the guy like a 5 dollar tip and he said that he doesn't want my money. The 3-4 regulars stared us down until we left. It was bizarre. Odd to think that Club Aqua and that place were functioning a block from each other for quite a while.
There is a guy in my office that is a state senator and extremely involved in state politics. I may not have the years correct, but he says if you have donated to the democratic party at any point in the last 6 years, you can't qualify to run as a republican. He's convinced Bruce can't qualify on that basis
that's probs a formality they would bypass if they liked him enough as a candidate (tbc i don't really give a shit either way; we're gonna end up with a POS regardless)
That’s true, and he has, but the state party can make an exception with a 3/4 vote from the steering committee.
If this guy is right, he won't get anywhere close to the votes he needs for the exception. But who knows.
I think they’d be smart to exercise that rule. Marshall is a cretin, but he’s savvy enough to play the game. Replacing Tubs with Pearl would be jumping from the frying pan into the fire.
It’s been said before but Blueprint on 3rd is delicious and gets overlooked. Had their blackened redfish (again) last night
Writing has been on the wall for a while. I’m sure they’ll tear it down and Pihakis will throw in a Nashville ramen spot or Charlotte’s best matzo ballery.
Placing a Sunday evening to-go order and having a beer at the bar is a delightful weekend ending ritual. Will miss DeVinci’s.
Seems like a huge hit for abc 33/40. Edit: never mind sounds like he’s staying on there in some capacity
Apparently some liquors are being delisted by the ABC bc of the tariffs, I’m assuming tequila is gonna take a hit. Anyone have any other details?
Jack's just released a statement saying their prices would be affected by the tariffs because it'll increase the cost to import disregarded meats/offal from the Wuhan wet market where they source all of their "meat like substance" as they put it.
generally agree with the threads sentiment on this place. really nice dinner. good steak. excellent service. not worth the price. i'll go back but it will be a business dinner with a vendor or client.
Nothing about chacos so Oranjello is good. “Anything that feels unprepared or unpolished for a dining experience“ this is literally my whole persona
The extreme 106 likely won’t verify but regardless if you’re a yard guy start keeping everything watered this week. double RL
