I have always adored Fireside Pies.  It's a cute small-ish place with booths, and a few tables inside.  There's seating at the bar, and also an outdoor patio in the back.  I've seen this place get crowded, but I've never really had to wait too long…More »

I go back and forth on Barcadia.  Sometimes I'll have the best time ever, and other times the place is way too packed, and the music is too loud.  Ugh, I really did just complain about music being too loud didn't I?  I'm turning into an old lady.…More »

Their brunch menu is delicious.

They have $12 bottomless mimosas.

Sitting on the patio at the corner of Henderson and Capitol is good people watching!!  This past Sunday we saw a crew of Vikings on bicycles, and a girl walk by with two big black eyes.

Victor Tango's still has it going on.  Met some of my old Yelp friends here last night for dinner, and had a great time.  The menu has changed a bit, but I was happy to see some of my favs still on the menu.

The tempura green beans being one of them.…More »

Okay, so I only have the Dickey's that's tucked away in a convenience store on McKinney to compare to this location.  I have to say that even though this is a full fledge restaurant I wasn't as impressed with this place as I am with the one inside…More »

First impression?  Ohh, this place could be douchey.
Second impression?  Wow, it takes a long time to get a drink.
Lasting impression?  I can't wait to come back.

This place is really neat.  If there's a nook, there is a chair or table to situate…More »

I don't frequent wine bars often, but this place is hands down one of my favorites.  I think they expanded, or either I was just too drunk to realize how big the place really is.  The last time I went we had to go through the wine store to get in.…More »

My friends and I had dinner at Café Madrid last night.  Half of the specials on the back of the menu were not being offered because the menu is changing today.  That was a total bummer.  We started with the cheese plate and bread basket for an…More »

This is a great brunch place, and good place to watch football.  That's if you can get past the horrible parking, and all of the kids.  They have $10 carafes of mimosas or bloody marys.  They are not bottomless.  I had the bacon, egg and cheese…More »

Saturday's brunch is brought to you by the letter B.  I had brown sugar bacon, buttermilk pancakes and bottomless mimosas.  The brown sugar bacon was so delicious.  I wasn't crazy about the pancakes, but I think that was just my taste preference.  We…More »

Places to Get a Cold Beer (62)

Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed - Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, 'It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.
