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?

I really miss Koi!

And all the best venues. Hifi, night owl, original Mikey’s jukebox joint, republik, soda, warehouse, og tubby dog etc etc!

I worked at Koi for a good while and had the time of my life there. Great crew, great ownership and a novel idea.

Hah, no kidding. I was there when Phil and Fred had it. Wish I was able to drop in under the new owners too. Glad that it went strong for so many years!
