Yeah. I was not a fan of The Tunnel at all.

They just opened one inside of Circa. The antique store.

There’s a bar in the back of BinQ. Brakes Bar behind Spoke and Hub. The Tunnel downtown.
My parents would be thrilled to move into St James. Hell, I can’t wait to go myself.

Nobody will be living in my home. It is 3 stories… intentionally.
Yep they have a new chef the last couple years and he’s very good.
He’s a known creep in Overpass area. Apparently some girl said he raped her a few weeks ago, but I don’t think police were involved.

Several of the regulars are black :lol:

Apparently ole Elijah is a known creep per my friends, but I don't know if I've encountered him before. He does look familiar, but not totally ringing a bell for me.
Well that’s copy-pasted directly from ChatGPT. :lol:

But regardless, I’ve heard the burgers are good.
Went yesterday for lunch for the first time. It was very good.

Caesar salad
Prosciutto and fruit appetizer
Rigatoni al Limone, add shrimp
Tagliatelle Bolognese

We enjoyed everything.
Holy shite. You’re right. Those filters are insane.

I’m no Millennial or Zoomer but I drink wine, just not much from California


I like CA wine, but definitely not all of it. The fruit bombs aren’t appealing to me.

There are some very good Cabernets that aren’t that, thankfully.

We usually go for Bordeaux (I like Left Bank ones) when dining out and getting a bottle. I like the earthiness.
Same. We bought so much wine in Napa we had to come home and order a huge wine fridge for storing and aging.
Is this the issue with the Capital Gala honorees?

During the time when you could only dine outdoors and only from to-go boxes, we were out front of Superior Highland and apparently a passing car on Highland called to complain.

How do you know? Did you actually go to a gay bar in Austin?



Yes? I quite like gay bars. :lol:

I just remember the blacks doubling and tripling down on mask wearing It was pathetic


I don’t know if I remember this, but I know the gays were NOT having masks. I went to Austin during masking, and the gay bars had not a one mask in sight.

Lots of OT “moderates” in that thread acting like leftist


I actually WAS a leftist back then. Summer of 2020 turned me conservative, and it was quite a hard turn too. :lol:
I have no idea what the deal really is, but my first thought was that a lot of people on that side of town are more willing to drive to the other side of town to eat. The reverse isn't really the case.

So, these spots are mostly just serving people who work and live close, whereas the other side of town gets people from all over willing to make the drive.
I don't mind being at brunch, as in, dining at 10:00AM or so on a Sunday where we made reservations and don't have to wait. But I want a full menu to be offered or for the brunch menu to also contain normal lunch foods as options.

Being possibly woozy feeling from Saturday night at a restaurant whose limited brunch menu is all stuff like Smoked Salmon Benedict is not enticing to me.

I hate mimosas too no matter how strong or watered down they are.

Anyway my answer: Cinco De Mayo. I do not understand why white people have gone crazy for this day, and unfortunately many of them are my friends who insist we not just go out.. but go to a popular Mexican spot where it is insane.
