I forgot to mention the Bulldog off of Perkins. Definitely a good place to day drink a beer or two but hard to stay there over an hour.



I'll always have a soft spot for BD (was a regular for several years, then worked there -- not as the cleaning lady, then went back to being a regular). Most of my closest girlfriends are from going to that bar. That said, I definitely go through phases where I spend time away to make myself miss it again.

Oweo - Search Mother's Lounge. They recently redid their menu to be a bit more crowd-pleasing/normal, but they had for a while steak empanadas.. mozzarella stuffed risotto balls.. tuna tartare.. etc.

Is the Londoner still around? A friend and I briefly hosted trivia there when they first opened back in 2011ish?



It's called Smiling Dog now, but similar vibes. More bar-ish than Londoner was.

How's the Vineyard these days?
Last I checked that joint is back open after being closed forever that's all I know.

Icehouse must have some regulars If they're still open. I remember going when it was brand new.

Tom closed the Citiplace location and reopened on Essen as The Lost Cove.

I still have Pint glasses in my liquor cabinet from Bulldog 2004-2009 while at LSU. Easy drive through the valley back to College Drive.

Say what you ill about Baton Rouge, Lord knows I do too, but I sure do miss the hell out of that, LSU, college life, etc. It was when life was way more simpler than it is now.
