    I would like to give some love to Armone's Italian sausages https://www.facebook.com/Arnones-Italian-Sausage-328455151922/

    I usually go to Mr. P's and get some Italian sausages for New Years but decided to give Armone a try.

    Grabbed some from the Pig on Clairmont and they didn't disappoint. Just as good as Mr. P's.

    They only sell them at Piggly Wiggilys.

    They are delicious and are a nice cheat code for pasta meat sauce if you take them out of the casing and mix with ground beef. Make a fantastic bolognese

    I'm not so sure about the cost side. If they quote you something at Flemming and it ends up being less time they don't charge you for the quote they charge you for whatever the time was. I came out something like $500 ahead on a 1500 job with them, so I tipped them $250

    Went to Iron City's new years eve party and it was fucking incredible. In their restaurant area they had like 10-15 casino games setup with legit dealers. Playing for fake money but it was fun to be on a craps table for 2 hours.

    Bettola is open on Resy. I like that place a lot and just went for NYE. The burrata appetizer is amazing, the bolognese and carbonara were fantastic.

    Will is printing money with Taco Mama, so I can't imagine there being any incentive for him to open another Otey's.

    I mean, I'm the first to defend Otey's to my death. But, pretty much everything about it aside from the staff and the handful of people I regularly know there objectively sucks ass.

    I read that rumor as Oteys moving from Crestline to Homewood and not a second location?

    It’s a local bar and is only cool because it is our local bar. There’s no way he would Franchise it.

    Locations as in more than just Homewood? Kinda wish they would call is something other than Otey’s. Seems dumb like how there are 15 Carrigans now.

    Oteys is oteys cause it’s oteys. I don’t know how multiple locations factor into that

    I was hoping he would put an Otey's in Vestavia City Center just because Taco Mama over there seems to be doing really well. Homewood makes more sense though.
