Open house at Court Square Center complex tonight, new menu items at Bardog

There’s an open house at Court Square Center tonight.  That’s the complex on Main between Court Square and Jefferson, consisting of the Lincoln-American Tower, an apartment building that opened several months ago; the Lowenstein Building at Main and Jefferson, still under construction and coming along nicely; and the yet-to-be-built CA2 building that will replace the Court Annex building that burned down.

Although I’m not looking to move – I still love Number 10 – I’ve heard the apartments there are very nice, and I want to get details about Court Square Center to pass along to friends and blog readers who are considering moving Downtown.  Also, when I saw the event on Facebook, there was one phrase that was particularly intriguing – “free wine, beer, and food.”  Free food – I wonder if the Nuh-Uh Girl will show up?  There will also be drawings for two plaza-level tickets to the upcoming Grizzlies-Lakers game, and other prizes.

Hmmm I kind of feel in the mood to dress holiday festive for this one… unusual that I actually feel like dressing up.  I have to get dressed up again Saturday for a wedding at St. Peter’s.  That’s the night of Stumbling Santa, and I’ve had people ask if I’m going to wear a Santa suit to the wedding.  No, not wearing a Santa suit, although I can think of things even more ridiculous to wear (e.g. a tie).

I did happy hour and beyond at Bardog Tavern last night.  They recently added three new items to their menu.  There’s an Italian sub, which is the sandwich version of their antipasto salad.  There’s a chicken quesadilla, which I took home last night.  And finally, there’s a fisherman’s stew (it’s called some Italian word I can’t remember on the menu, starts with a C), a stew full of seafood.

Slow news day… probably won’t be 6-7 posts a day like I did earlier this week, unless I hear about more stuff.  Outta here for now…
