I hate going to places that are too packed with a long wait, but my friend was 20 minutes late, so I had no choice but to wait on a very busy cold Sunday afternoon. After 30 minutes of waiting and numb toes, we were finally called in...

Once we…More »

Another Sunday brunch to catch up with a long time friend.

We met at exactly 11AM to beat the hustle and bustle. No wait and tons of seating available.  Just 10-15 minutes later, the whole place filled up and shortly after a line formed outside.

I…More »

Sparrow Tavern is an obscure bar located right across from Bohemian Hall. How is it obscure? It's pitch black and almost ominous looking from the outside. Inside, it has a deliberate dive style look, which works for them.

As for the food,…More »

Sunday brunch. Fatty's Cafe. I feel good.

The place was packed early afternoon. The sun was shining and I was hungry. Everyone had nicely sized dishes that made my mouth water. I quickly sat down and glanced at the one-page menu.

For $12.99 you have a…More »

I was sadly dissapointed with this place. It was packed and everyone seemed to enjoying the place, perhaps it was the unlimited mimosas putting the smiles on their faces.
