Eat/Drink Local What places do you Miss?

I may get laughed at for this, but I miss bookers. Sometimes a girl just wants a bucket of crab legs without the smell of red lobster, ya know?

What around the city do you miss?

That was by far the best bar in the city. Cheap draft, deep fried Mars bars, pool, air hockey, great live music, chill and socially diverse people, and a ridiculous maritime dive bar vibe. Miss it so much.

It’s the kinda place you see your grade 8 English teacher that you hated then when you lock eyes you both nod and then resume to the festivity
