    Sitting at this pour house place downtown that has these automated taps with a shitload of beer options. I've never seen anything like it although I am old and out of it so it may be commonplace these days. It's totally self service. Wife and I are headed to lazy goat for dinner tonight. Pretty pumped

    Yeah I ended up eating there. As good a steak as I've ever had in my life, and the sides were topnotch.

    Lazy Goat probably tied with Soby's for favorite "nice" place

    the Moroccan lamb dish was mandatory

    Duly noted.

    This weekend marks us being here for 1 year, and we haven't really been able to hit as many good restaurants as we wanted to thus far as we have a 2 1/2 year old. We were between lazy goat, sobys and American grocery for dinner tonight. I pulled the trigger for lazy goat.

    I would say right now my favorite place is trappe door.

    If you haven't been to Sobys, try the bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin with garlic mashed and broccolini. That is a fine meal.

    Greenville, S.C. thrives with hip urban core
    Forty or 50 years ago, mills ran two or three shifts a day in many Southern towns, making shirts, socks and towels — textiles of every kind.

    And then the mills began to close, and the textile towns that dotted the Southern landscape had to search for new identities.

    The folks in Greenville, South Carolina, saw it coming, and a city that could have been a “used to be” has created a hip urban core that includes green space, shops, restaurants and entertainment venues.

    Officially, there are 30 cities and towns in the United States called Greenville. To distinguish itself from all the others, the city in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of upstate South Carolina refers to itself as “Yeah, THAT Greenville.”

    And THAT Greenville is a great choice for a long weekend trip, especially in the fall.

    Tried out Toss tonight. Didn't think I had room for another pizza joint in the rotation, but it stood alone enough to fit in there with Tito's, Sidewall, and late night Bertolo's. Sweetwater bottles and drafts were $3 for happy hour. :bunnywithapancakeonitshead:

    I'd give the edge to Sidewall because their crust is better, but it's close.

    We ordered the Margherita and another one with sausage and peppadew peppers. Two totally different styles/tastes. I love peppadew peppers on pizza, and they're the first that I've seen have them in town. Tito's is the usual go to for the wife and I.

    Greenville is so much nicer than when I was in high school. Downtown has shit to do now besides going to Coffee Underground and then arguing with your friends over who owes what because Coffee Underground are bunch of assholes that will not split a check.

    Trappe Door (recommend the duck) and then head upstairs to top floor of Barley’s for beers afterwards. Can’t go wrong with Husk or Jianna. Velo Fellow another good night spot for drinks and music.
