The Usual Last Spot

As I wrote in January, one of my favorite places to ever end a night of drinking.

Mountain Music

One of my favorite beers in America while an LP of my favorite American band is playing. 


This is NOT Tom Petty. 


I never liked this song - though I pretended to when I was 18 because Deadhead girls would sometimes take their tops off for me. But... I liked this version. 


My favorite bar performer I have ever seen. And I've seen a lot.

The King is Dead, Long Live the King

Switchback has been replaced by a place that looks better. I didn't eat here because I was still full from lunch, but I will one day.

Akami Poke & Ramen

 

At my last meal at Akami, I discovered their spicy crispy tuna and declared it the best one I have ever had. 

I ordered it again and it was again great. 

The shrimp shumai were fine, if a tad boring in comparison. 

I tried the Vampiro roll for the first time. 

It was the best sushi roll I have had in years.

The Neon Mallard

Not exactly my kind of place, but one of the most beautiful bars to which I have ever been. I gotta give them props for that.
