Today is International Beaver Day. I recommend you celebrate with a Beaver Eater shot at Bardog.
Speaking of Bardog, allow me to share a few quotes from the folks sitting at the bar yesterday.
“If you have britches, slash, trousers on, you’re a solid guy.”
“What’s Putin’s last name?”
I added a couple of quotes of my own. “If your kid is born on March 15, you can name him Brutus.”
“And it’s acceptable to name your dog Adolf if he’s a German shepherd.”
Someone ordered a round of breakfast shots, with orange juice and bacon chasers. “They should open a bar inside DGX and serve a discount version of breakfast shots,” I said. “They could use Sizzlean instead of bacon.”
The Internet turns 56 today. Read RFC 1
The restaurant formally known as Wingman, on Madison across the street from the Brass Door, is now called Neon Nights Lounge. Wings still feature heavily on the menu.
A few days ago, I mentioned you could get açai bowls at Memphis Chess Club. There’s another place on Madison that has them too. That would be Downtown Nutrition next-door to Wi – er, Neon Nights Lounge.
The civil rights museum will be closed today due to flooding.
Foodees Food and Culture Festival happens this weekend in Tom Lee Park. 50 food trucks and vendors. Jewelry, arts and crafts. Free admission.
Gotta go. Back tomorrow.
