In life, I have suffered (infrequently) of FOMO - Fear Of Missing Out. It occasionally causes me to overextend myself during my waking hours. Such a thing happened two Sundays ago after a bike ride, then a pickup baseball game, followed by a few…More »

Bluegrass Brunch on Sundays. This was a blast - usually I wouldn't go anywhere that had a set menu but this was great and super fun. It's $14 per adult and comes with coffee, OJ, scrambled eggs, fruit, sausage, hashbrowns and pancakes. They bring…More »

Toast. Soldiers.
Carmen, the greatest server ever to walk the face of my breakfast, was a major hilight of eating here after a disappointing attempt to brunch at Saving Grace. Kat and I were on one of our patented "I work at home" weekday brunch…More »

I have so many memories at Smokeless Joe's... I used to live at Cityplace and I really struggled to find local bars and eateries where I felt at home. Enter Smokeless Joe's.

I love Nandina. I lived at the Westin on Pearl St for almost a year once and I really appreciated Nandina's late delivery hours. Nandina saved me from eating granola bars for supper and I will forever love them for it.
At some point I actually…More »

A lot has changed since I was last at Sidecar, and this being my 4th visit since my original review I think I owe it an update.
First, let's talk about Graham. He has been my waiter a few times and served us last night. He was amazing.
Specifically:…More »

Basically... I made Mike go here against his will and he is forever in debt to me.
We walked past this dump on the way to to an amazing coffee shop and saw a sign that said "$2 beer and pool" - I said "we're going there." Mike said "I don't know..."…More »
Coffee in Leslieville/Riverside (14)I love coffee. I am picky about coffee. |
Places where I have met people from Russia (2)Here's hoping this list grows quickly! I meet Russians in the weirdest places. |
Music Stuff (4)Places I've bought guitars, guitar pedals, guitar amps, guitar strings, speakers, junk... basically where I waste all my money outside of bars. |
Breakfasts (23)I love breakfasts. These ones aren't necessarily the best, but I have been to them :) |
List of great dumps (7)Inspired by Kat's list of dumps that are happy to have us visit even if I smell like last night's booze and have to wear a hat... I present to you... my own... (drumroll)...LIST OF DUMPS! |
Chicken Wings... for better or for worse (15)I want a certain style of wing... I will accept no less than crispy, unbreaded, saucy, non ketchupy wings with veggies and bleu cheese. Some dill dips are also acceptable. |
Rotisserie Chicken (4)I didn't know you could get chickens at so many places! |
Places where I have "a guy" (3)You know those people who have "a guy" for everything? He's the go-to guy, who knows everything about whatever and cuts you a cash deal? Well... my guys usually don't cut me a cash deal, but I won't buy from anyone else at these stores. |
Turn Down Your Baby (8)Inspired by a PM from a new user criticizing my dislike of children in restaurants, I have compiled this list of places that I have met children. (P.S. Please stop asking me to babysit) |
