  • This Is A Very Important Topic These Days…

    Where to go for lunch/dinner and where can we sit outside to enjoy doing so (bonus points if the dogs can join, too!)?

    Thank you, thank you, thank you to Ashton’s daily email update and to the following blog for gathering all the info into one blog post for us:

    Raleigh Philosophical Society: Best place to enjoy outdoor dining?PS – I hope everyone will join me for lunch AND dinner at Hard Times Cafe (one of my favorite places to dine outside in the whole city) on Tuesday, April 8th, 2008 between 11:00am and 10:00pm! If you tell them that you are there to support NCSU’s Relay for Life (AND THAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART!), they will donate a portion of your bill to this year’s Relay event. Let’s kick cancer’s butt together my friends 🙂

  • Tobacco Road

    Dangit! I wanted a piece of a sports bar to call “Tobacco Road”. I knew it’d be a great name for a bar around these parts. And I still know that it’ll be a great place to watch college sports with a nice hint of rivalry in the air.

    Apparently, those Amra boys beat me to it. Oh well, if it could be anyone else… I’m glad it’s them! (If you’ve never been to a wine tasting at Amra’s on Glenwood South – or anything else there for that matter – I highly recommend it!)

    From Ashton’s daily dish on Downtown Dirt and more… here’s the short and sweet of it… and I do mean short!

    “In downtown news: The 7000 square foot satellite sports bar planned for 222 Glenwood (to be opened by the Amra’s brothers) will be called Tobacco Road.”
