It’s only open Thursday (non bbq) and Friday (bbq) for lunch

Not traditional BBQ (more higher-end Tex Mex with smoked meats and good margs), but I thought Little Coyote was incredible. Only open for dinner though.

i was on a flight on the Sunday after the CrowdStrike issue where United needed 8 volunteers. A few people took the $600-1k offer, but the last four spots went for $4k/person. Obviously not normal circumstances since they had to get pilots on the plane as passengers who were stuck in ORD. I overheard from one of the pilots that they had approval to go up to $5k/person.

RIP Fishers. Anyone know what’s going to happen to that location?

How’s dodger stadium?

There’s a ton of resorts within an hour of LA or SD off the PCH

I waited ~2 hours in line for it back in 2017 and it lived up to the hype for me.

If you like Costera, you’d probably really like their sister restaurant Osteria Lupo.

Gianna does a pretty good one as well. Both are more feed me menus though.

Saint Germain is incredible but not sure they could seat 8-10 at one table. And the price is considerably higher than family-style feed me menus

Summit and Escondito are both private right? Do you know anything about Legends in Kingsland?

The Dabney

I think a minor league stadium on the West Bank overlooking the downtown skyline would be great. Add a walking/biking bridge to connect the two sides and revitalize that area

I’d agree w that. Juniors, Pizza Domenica and Celtica are all nice additions. The best restaurant in that little area is still in bucktown though haha

That’s kinda the point. Most bucktown starter homes ($270k+) are tear downs due to condition and size. Which is driving a lot of new construction development in the area.

If your budget is $500k but want something bigger than 1,500 sq ft, you’ll have more options in LV.

I do find the walkability in LV to be somewhat overstated. I lived in LV for 10 years and rarely walked to places listed (pharmacy, grocery, mail services lol) other than coffee shops and CC. The restaurant scene overall is pretty underwhelming. Bucktown could use a coffee shop though.

The third house will be a tough sell since it’s the first house off w. esplanade.

Same with the second house, although that one isn’t new or in bucktown.

I wouldn’t buy the first one on looks alone haha

I don’t know about all that. Still a decent amount of unkept houses/rental properties in LV.

Lots/new build construction costs are similar, although with a 20% reduction property tax alone. With better roads, public services, significantly lower crime, walkability to lakefront, etc.
