A new concert has been announced at the FedExForum – Foo Fighters, Motorhead and Biffy Clyro will play May 20. Tickets go on sale to the public this Saturday at 10 PM.<\/p>\n
A couple of weeks ago, I blogged about a new fitness center coming to South Main – Klein Fitness, near Main and Vance. Today’s Groupon is for Klein – $45 for a month of unlimited group classes and one 30-minute personal training session<\/a>. It’s up to a $125 value.<\/p>\n Couple of specialty gyros are on the menu at Elliott’s on Second this week. They have the “Red Sea G,” a gyro made with hot habanero curry sauce and hummus. “If you like mouth explosions, you’ll enjoy the Red Sea G,” owner Harry posted. For those who want to enjoy hummus on a gyro without feeling like a volcano is erupting in your mouth, try the “Lamb Hum.” Both will be available the rest of this week.<\/p>\n The food truck ordinance goes before the full city council today at 3:30. It’s not perfect – trucks can’t operate past 10 PM and can only stay in one place for two hours – but it’s a start. Hope it passes. The Memphis Daily News has more on the food truck ordinance.<\/a><\/p>\n The Majestic Grille has St. Pat’s specials all week: Fish & Chips, Corned Beef on Rye, and Shepherd’s Pie. Chef Patrick, being Irish, knows a few things about cooking for St. Patty’s Day.<\/p>\n I got a notification on Facebook that the annual push-cart parade on Beale, scheduled for tonight, has been canceled. Not sure why. It’s something the local bars and restauants do the Tuesday of St. Patrick’s Day week.<\/p>\n Congrats to my BBQ Fest team The Ques Brothers, who received official confirmation from Memphis in May today that we are IN for 2011. I’m ready for a week of BBQ and debauchery!<\/p>\n I’ll be at the Saucer for trivia night at 7. The team is 3 for 3 since new trivia guy David took over. We’re getting another sizable stack of gift certificates together for the next team party! Right now, it’s time for lunch then a few hours of work on WordPress… have a good afternoon everyone!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A new concert has been announced at the FedExForum – Foo Fighters, Motorhead and Biffy Clyro will play May 20.
