Regarding a lawsuit, we have until 12/18/25 to see if a lawsuit is filed.


2 years from the date of the event, given the change in the law last year
As mentioned Seven Dials is close, so Hawksmoor is an option and there are some really good places around Neal's Yard (The Barbary is great, reservation is best but maybe pop in with two). Barrafina has a location on Drury Lane (only been to the one on Dean Street but its excellent).
My favorites from that neighborhood:

Allard
Chez Fernand Christine (all the French comfort favorites, incredible Beef Bourguignon)
Boulangerie LIBERTÉ (across the street from Allard)
Pub St Germain (pours a nice Guinness)
The alleyway on Cour du Commerce Saint-André is really cool with lots of shops and cafes.
Annecy, "Venice of the Alps", is a great old city in the French Alps, with canals fed by Lake Annecy. The "Old Town", northeast of the lake, has lots of interesting shops, bars and restaurants, set among cobbled streets and pastel colored buildings. There are street markets on certain days.

The Imperial Palace is a great hotel north of the lake that is an easy walk to the Old Town. West of the hotel is another easy walk to mountain climbing trails on Mont Veyrier. There are lots of boat rental options for the lake as well.
My favorite meal in Annecy was at Brasserie Irma, a Bocuse restaurant (named after Bocuse's mother, Irma, who was from Annecy).
Will be crowded, but as another poster said, the space can accommodate

BRG changed it for the worse.
Kiffin calling a timeout at the end of the 1st half, prompting the officials to review the fumble is one of the worst coaching mistakes I have seen in a long time and I sat through all of the Les Miles games.

That guy is a douche. The LSU fans were fine. Yes chirped a lot after the game but nothing too crazy. If people want to be mad then be mad at Kiffin for letting LSU stay within a score at home.

He's been no 1 and the world record holder for four years! After setting a new world record four and a half years, he has set/broken his own world record eight times.

Lawry's does a fine prime rib from a tableside cart in an old school style (even spinning the salad).
A more upscale option is NoMad Library and get the American Wagu Prime Rib for two. Great Place for a birthday celebration

Estate Yountville is a great hotel and location. It was previously the Hotel Villagio and new ownership has improved it. You can walk to a number of local restaurants. It has a great bar and offers afternoon winetastings in the lobby on certain days during the week.
All of the Waymo cars I saw in San Francisco recently were Jaguar I-PACE cars

Would be my choice out of the thread so far.


Has it reopened after the sale?
