david carlson
oh, i did want to mention the scene cuisine review from last weeks scene magazine… satchel’s got a pretty nice review. they used old photos but gave us good remarks. david carlson, the restaurant critic, even got it right about the van, that it’s a 60′s ford. it was perfect timing since this is pretty much the slowest time of the year for us, so the article gave us an unexpected bump. cheers to d.c., whoever and wherever he is.
speaking of restaurants, buddha belly is slated to open friday night. i’m excited to have a new spot to eat. i can’t make it friday night, but i may get ther for lunch on saturday. parker is a really nice guy and i think he’ll have a winner in that new place. get this, he tried to rent the old kentucky fried chicken on main street but they wouldn’t rent to him because he’s not a big corporate place. isn’t that a joke? i have no doubt he could do twice the business as kentucky fried chicken did, but some idiot wants a corporate fast food chain there instead of a thriving local restaurant. good thing he found another spot, because restaurant locations are hard to come by in this town.
i went to the new haile breakfast place, sisters, about a week or two ago. very nice. boutiqey. good food. big city sort of atmosphere. we sat outside. it was fun. i won’t be out that way much early in the morning but it could be a saturday or sunday destination once in a while.
tried to find the korean bar-b-q place tonight but it seems to have gone away. the sign on the door said they were moving but we could not figure out where.
tonight was new song night at lightnin’ salvage. anyone can sign up to play a few songs. it was nice. a good crowd, laid back, cool people. i think it’s going to be a hit… the first wedesday of each month.
