Monday update

Before we get started with the news, I want to apologize if I did not seem like myself this past weekend. I’m worried about a friend who has been off the grid for a while. That plus excessive Fireball consumption led to some less-than-perfect behavior from me. Sorry.

You’ve seen Shorty’s pasta bar that the Silly Goose runs during weekday happy hours. They’ve now added a second build-your-own bar: A build-your-own omelet bar run by Dre for Sunday brunch. Same ingredients as the pasta bar, pick whatever you want and then Dre will cook it up for you.

Actually, I guess it’s their third build-your-own since they have the Bloody Mary bar on Sundays as well.

Goldcrest 51, the flagship beer made by the Tennessee Brewing Co. until it shut down in the 1950s, will be making a comeback.

Hungry Memphis has beer news about Ghost River and Memphis Made, as well as the second City Market location.

So You Think You Can Dance live auditions are coming to the Orpheum tomorrow. Tickets are free.

It’s normally Melissa Monday at Bardog but I need to drop off a BBQ team check (welcome to the team, Peter and Mary Ann) so I may have to make Silly Goose my first stop tonight. Later I may wander over to Blind Bear, where Dave who runs British Bingo is having his birthday. This has been a Monday for sure so far, but hopefully it will get better.
