  1. For a birthday dinner is there any reason to go somewhere other than Brasserie Mon Chou Chou?
    We still haven’t done Bohanans, Maverick, Nonna Osteria.

    Um, sure, if you don’t feel like eating French food on your bday.

    All three of the options you listed has a better wine list than Mon Chou Chou. People go nuts for that pasta cheese wheel dish at Nonna. I’d put the new restaurant in the Pearl, Ladino as a good birthday dinner spot as well. You can’t go wrong with any of the options you listed.

    Flying SW out of SAT tonight and my flight is shockingly not cancelled. It's the only flight flying out of SAT this evening that SW hasn't cancelled yet. Not sure if I should just take the chance and take it or just cancel the flight and book another airline.  Have a layover and would rather not get stranded there during New Years Eve weekend.

    Cancelled my reservation and got a United flight on Saturday. Looks like my SW flight though got to its final destination with minimal delays.

    Go figure.

  4. To add to the the downtown list, Double Standard is pretty awesome. $3 for legit beers like Live Oak Hefe, Real Ale Hans Pils and 512 Pecan Porter.  Also legit burgers and steak frites. Near Embassy Suites where Rosella on Houston used to be. 

    Important to note about Toro is there's a speakeasy underneath the restaurant called Cellar Mixology that serves really good drinks. Place can get very loud at night but good during the day.

    Southwestern Bell -> SBC

    My dad still uses his swbell.net email. Parents home email is a sbcglobal.net one. I still say "SBC Center" reflexively sometimes when referring to where the Spurs play. 

    Any San Antonians remember Body Solutions? Couldn't go anywhere in SA in the early 00's without seeing an advertisement for that weight loss product. Not sure if it was SA only or not. Product turned out to be a total fraud and believe the owner ended up being prosecuted.

    @Party_Taco and other Greater DC area guys, any good spots for drinking and shopping in our nation’s capitol? 

    Jack Rose has the best whiskey selection in the city. Churchkey is solid as well. Both usually have some barrel picks and are in the Dupont Circle area.

    Don't really do much whiskey shopping in the city so can't help with that.

  7. They'll probably bring it back as a promotion. Similar to how McDonald's announced they'll "permanently remove" the McRib from the menu in 2005 yet it still comes back every now and then.
