Recently updated lists from Sean S.

Best Valley Boozin' Joints (11) Do you need a drink? or instead do you need LOTS of drinks? These are places where, sure, you could have A drink, but what got them on this list was how good a place they are for boozin' - should that be something you care for. Factors that get places on this list are: Booze Variety, Atmosphere, and $$$-to-Alcohol Ratio.	I Want Brunch! (14) .
