Ribs & BBQ at this place. On Vaughn. Had the pulled-pork sandwhich with beans as a side. Good, hearty bbq, slow cooked in an unattended back parking lot??

Acadia
Acadia, a New Orleans Bistro. On NE Fremont Street. Lunch is only served on Wednesdays. Place is great; I really want to do a dinner here on a warm summer night. Some wine, some twinkle lights, a little jazz, sit outside, yum. Today had the crawfish, shrimp, and blue crab rillettes with toast (sorry no…
John Barleycorn’s

Cherries
At $7.99 a pound, these first cherries of the season had better be good!
Wake Up Call
