Thanks for responding in all caps smartasses ;) Thanks. Hopefully they will actually open tomorrow. I passed by a while ago and they had 4/20 as the open date and then I heard 2 weeks but I figured with all the knowledgable people on here someone would know (or at least pretend to)....

I know this is an old thread but I've been a few times now and now I feel like I can talk about it. There are a few things I REALLY enjoyed, the rest was just ok. The spicy tuna roll is excellent - mainly because of the quality of fish like everyone else has said, but its just the right amount o...
I've put capers in it instead of the relish before, definitely delicious. Also I have a recipe that put shredded onion in it which gives it a completely different flavor, but still real good. Egg salad is one of those things that you can play around with and add whatever you have in your kitchen tha...

I agree about the 1st season...it gets off to a bit of a slow start but as you move along into 2 (where I left off, I haven't started 3 yet), it gets better. That being said, I started renting it from Netflix about a month ago on a friend's suggestion and its definitely entertaining if you like d...
Interesting...yeah I hadn't heard they were selling a line under a different name until you mentioned it. I'll have to try it for sure. Also, I bet the Chimes or the Bulldog has it on draft if you can't find it in stores. Both of them carry Heiner Brau....
Are you talking about Heiner Brau? If so, Whole Foods definitely has it, possibly Matherne's as well....

I've gone a few times, mostly for the happy hour specials with the appetizers and drinks...it is ridiculously overpriced (even during happy hour) for the quality of food offered. I really wanted to like it because I like the sangria but even that's not good enough to go back....

Keep at least 2 of the screens on ESPNU at all times for those that aren't involved in the auctions, etc...this goes along with what some of the other posters were saying. Also, make sure there is a women's restroom in the actual exhibition hall...I understand there are significantly more men in...

Thanks so much for your help! We came for the SECCG in 2005 and were underage so I was clueless when we were thinking about where to go this time...I'm sure we'll see you at Sidebar before the game! :cheers:...
Any suggestions other than Sidebar and Max Lager's about where to go after the game? Little or no cover if possible......

[quote]I dare say no one can compare with Superior Grill's margarita. It can be consumed in New Orleans, Baton Rouge or Shreveport.

re: Abita christmas ale

Posted by geaux580307 on 12/5/08 at 2:18 pm
Agreed although the pecan ale is a close 2nd.We like to say it tastes like Christmas trees because its sooo bitter. I know thats not the most articulate critique in the world but I think its rather accurate if you have ever tried it......
