  • There is something almost aristocratic about sitting down for a multi-course meal. There’s the elegance, the fine food (of course), and the lively banter that flows in such settings. If such delights are missing from your microwavable munchies, then check out the esprit de fare at the Grown Up’s Table. This weekly event at Beckett’s Table features three courses plus wine...

  • Near misses for the Triple Crown are common -- only 11 of the 32 horses that placed first in both the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes have ever gone on to win thoroughbred racing’s most coveted prize. The last horse to take the Triple Crown, Affirmed, did so in 1978, and seven near misses have occurred in just the last 15 years. In other words: We’re due for a...

    10/19/12

    You want a good view? Come to a Different Pointe of View. When you get there, just go straight... and go up! The restaurant and bar are located at the top of the mountain, but there are signs directing you there. Once you get there, you can either park yourself or valet, and walk up stairs to the bar and the restaurant on the top floor. I have been here several times,...

    10/18/12

    I drive by this place all the time, and the fire is what got me. They have two giant columns near the entire with fire on top. They also have a fire pit near the open bar. To celebrate a birthday, I made a reservation for a nice night out. We started with some free edamame thanks to Yelp. If you check-in using Yelp, you get a free order. Then we had Teppanyaki, which...
