I'm glad they're coming back AND renovating. Good cheap eats, but the one over here by Railhead smelled like shit in the dining room.

Imagine trying to throw the wedding of the century, spending $89M, and your musical act is Maroon 5.
Just proves that wealth can't buy taste.
And then have said husband go to prison for 25 years.

Looking for a new auto mechanic, need brakes and a wheel bearing. Any recs? I'm near west 7th.
I haven't been yet, but I see amazing reviews for Family Car Care Center behind Serious Pizza. I have some work I need done soon, and that's where I'm going.

Went to one of the soft openings this weekend for Gustos Burgers, who moved from their food trailer behind Tulips into the old Radler building on Magnolia. Really good smash burger if you like that sort of thing. Only beer and margaritas, but plan on having a full bar in the near future.

Glad to see they got it back in operation. Is it still the full track?
Running the full track weekends only 10a-5p.

Ate at the central FW location once years ago and never went back. No idea how the hell it ever hung on in that weird location
I went a few weeks ago. The credit card machine was down and the place smelled like the plumbing was stopped up.

If you are staying for the weekend and have some free time, drive the back way up to Old Mesilla, New Mexico, and stop at Chope's Bar and Cafe in La Mesa for some excellent Mexican food and ice-cold beer and Margaritas. Old Mesillas is a quaint small village outside of Las Cruces, and the drive up 28 is really nice. There is decent Mexican food at La Posta, and a really nice wine bar across the street at NM Vintage Wines.

Anybody go to that Shaq rave at Panther Island?
Newspaper articles about the "nearby residents expressing concern" for the noise and demographic. Last I checked theres only a couple small apartment complexes near the Pavilion. Wouldn't surprise me if it was one douche lawyer living there complaining.
No, that last concert was an absolute BEATING through MIDNIGHT, and I live off Clover near 30! However, I didn't hear anything this time so I appreciate the steps take to prevent a repeat.

Golden would meet your needs. You will run out of stuff to do in Golden proper after a day or 2 but downtown is walkable and there are several restaurants. The location is awesome. Easy fly into DIA, Red Rocks for concerts, tons of hiking all through the area. Rafting is close by in Idaho Springs. Genesee Bison outlook is close. You can go for a scenic drive up Mount Evans. Boulder is 30-45 min away/Estes Park is a 4 hr drive. Colorado Springs is a little over an hour (Pikes Peak/Manitou Springs). Fly fishing is available in the area too.
Second this. Golden is amazing!

Saw a discussion about best Italian sub in Austin, so that naturally leads to this...
Who the hell has the best one in this fine city?
Olivella's ?

IF I made it to Ft. Worth on Saturday. Where would be my best BBQ bets? I am not standing in line at Goldees so that's out. I'm thinking Panther City and Daynes. Anywhere else you might suggest on that level? Brix? Thanks!
1.a. Brix.
1.b. Panther City.
These two places are .4 of a mile from each other. Panther City will likely have the longer line though.

Hit the "new" Brix today. Got there at 10:30 and was first in line, but it got pretty crowded at opening. Indoor and outdoor seating or sit at the bar. Food was outstanding as always.

I got a 1/2 lb cheeseburger at the original location. Maybe it was the cheese.
But your original point stands that $17 at M+O seems a little bit high for a burger, fries, and a drink. That price point seems more in line with Rodeo Goat, Hopdoddy, etc.Craft burgers are all just playing catch up with the craft BBQ joints.

Edmondson's? We used to buy beer in high school from that stop and rob across the street.
The other side of Camp Bowie on Horne across from Cash American Pawn.

Probably. Didn't make it long at Blueblonnet or W. 7th. It was my first high school job in Austin, so I'm pulling for them.
-
Mr. Gatti's coming back. Horne and Camp Bowie, where the hot chicken place was.

Did he say when he's opening? I haven't been in over a month, but the turd posted on Facebook a week or two ago that the opening of the brick and mortar Brix was imminent
He wouldn't commit to an opening date, but said they were getting close, and the fact they're about to start hiring, leads me to believe it will be sooner rather than later.
-
Brix still throwing out some consistently great BBQ. Trevor says he's about to start hiring for the new location.

I noticed the other day that the old Bar Louie is still vacant. That's been empty for almost 4 years now?Isn't a bank going in there? Or maybe I'm thinking of the wrong intersection.

odd ball answer is try the VFW. But you would likely be Happy at StingRays on beach street as they are the "sports bar" in town. Decent food and multiple screens if you want the sports bar vibe. Blue Water Cowboy has a few screens, but my second choice might be Lelo's next to La Playa. I'm sure they would put have the game on and solid drinks and food.
Thank you!

Anyone have a recommendation for best sports bar or regular bar to watch the Warriors/Lakers game tomorrow night?

I worked on the Northside for 21 years and only went there once, which was enough to convince me that El Asadero, Los Paisanos, El Rancho Grande (now the Original) were better authentic options and were less than a mile from my office.
Exactly. Not to mention Dos Molina's and all the other places further up 25th towards Azle Avenue.

What like Joe T’s? Ownership and management often have little to do with the actual food. Around these parts Koreans own most Chinese and sushi joints and Persians own a lot of Italian joints.
Anyway, Mercado Juarez has had a north side location for decades. The one in north Arlington as very good back in the late 80’s; you could get great cabrito and lots of south Texas things that you didn’t see much back then. The decline started over 20 years ago when the owner sold out to his store managers and they really lost their way. I haven’t been in over ten years. I’ll give the new guy a chance if he fixes the place and it gets good reviews.Thanks for confirming the food is bad. I ate there only a few times back in the early 90's when I worked in the area, and thought the food was bland and lacked taste. I can only imagine how bad it is now if it has indeed declined over the past 20 years. I never made to the Arlington location so I have no idea about their food, so I will defer to you. I'm not a restaurant snob in any way, but in my experience, no Mexican food joint owned by non-Hispanics has ever really been good, just average at best. I may be wrong about that, but none come to mind.
I pledge to post more pictures of this STEAK

That looks great! Can you give me time and temperature in the oven, and how long you seared on the stove?
