Wife and I went for an after drink Friday night at Toro Toro in the Worthington. As soon as we walked in I saw Casey Thompson and his family in one of the sitting areas. CDC and Hartzell were there getting their drink on. Shot the shit with CDC a couple of times. Good dude and says he misses Funky Town.

I graduated from UT in 94. I want to take my kids for some fun. Not looking for a big party scene though I used to do a lot of that. Anyway, going to the game and was looking for a fun atmosphere without a lot of drunk people. Maybe Dutch's early b4 the game and Dirty Bones friday? Does anyone go to Angelo's anymore?
Blue Goose on University. Fun atmosphere, decent food and drinks.

Bowie Bakery for some pan dulce.

I really should have taken a pic of the baby tacos, but we were in that little 3-table bar area, so it would have been fairly obvious I wasn’t pumped.
Sorry, but I guess my point was that the food has apparently improved to perfectly fine from the suckage I had encountered during my visit.

Went to Original Del Norte tonight (old El Rancho Grande in Northside). Food quality was perfectly fine, service was spotty, but they tried. Problem was price v. quantity. Two ‘puffy’ tacos, rice, & beans was $16. Well, the tacos were tiny, & puffy would be extremely kind. Filling tasted good though. You would get much more food on Tuesdays & Wednesdays at Pulido’s with their old $5.99 taco plate.
I would return, but definitely order the Roosevelt Special next time. That was $13 & an appropriate portion.
Glad they have improved their game, because when I went 2-3 months ago, the food (cheese enchilada plate) had no flavor whatsoever, the salsa was runny/tasteless, and the tortillas were like rubber. I was shocked as to how different the food was between their two locations.

Great. Headed next weekend to MGM for NBA Summer League. Delta will be gone by then right?

I think he meant the side dish and plate presentation.

For the 12th largest city in the country to not have reliable public transportation is a joke. And unless you are willing to chance riding our glorious bus system, you are pretty much screwed.
I agree, but a $2.50 train ride to the airport is pretty sweet though.

I don't Uber like I used to but my understanding is that there is still a driver shortage. Try Lyft?
Lyft was $13. Still kind of pricey, but better than $40. I have never used Lyft so didn't even think about them. Thanks for the recommendation.

Just to throw out a little more info. Going to cook ribeyes and filets.
Get ready for a lot of different answers! With all due respect, you don't have to reverse sear or sous vide to cook a quality steak as most here seem to believe, although I understand why people do so. If you have a grill and can get the temperature to 450-550, you are on your way. It does take a little practice, and I did so with less expensive prime top sirloin, but have gotten it down and it is so much easier. Just my opinion, and it won't be very popular. Either way good luck.

Hit Brix yesterday. Very solid. Nice bark on the brisket, and big meaty pork ribs. Also, free Hop Fusion beer while waiting for your order!

Anybody been to Tulane's and/or Maple Branch Brewing? Thinking about checking those out for some day drinking on Saturday.
Actually, went to Tulane's for the first time yesterday after work. Dark interior, friendly bartender and good Happy Hour drink prices. Plan to return.

Is that the previous King of Wings spot? Another short-lived joint.
Yes.

Check out Toque Mexicano at 5822 Camp Bowie. Great food, big portions, and amazing friendly service. If it's your first time, they will bring out samples of literally 11 different salsas/starters etc. Chips are homemade too. BYOB.

Griff’s is a deep fried indulgence and I have no qualms about going there. I eat at Fred’s and Kincaid’s often and like both of them (although Fred’s has become rather pricey). Both are more high dollar than Griff’s but I still like Griffs just like I still like WhataBurger.
I have never tried Dutch’s or Tommy’s.
The Rodeo Goat is still my favorite.
I'm right there with you on Griff's.

Burgers N Beyond on W. Allen is an excellent old school burger with great fries too.

I used Montreal steak seasoning, although honestly it would’ve been great with just S&P as well. I actually just cooked this on my Kamado grill. I was pleased with the result.
S&P, garlic, parsley, and oil on these. Didn’t think about Rosemary but I’ll have to try that out sometime too.
I love you man! Lol!!

Nice work, but you're no caveman if either one of my nemesis, sous vide or reverse searing were involved! What seasoning did you use?

I've never had a bad meal at Brix. Their brisket, pork ribs and sausage are top notch. As a bonus, they provide free Hop Fusion beer while waiting for your order.
