Friday lunch at The Clam with Johnny Gumbo

"You eat yet?"
"Nope."
"Pick you up in fifteen."

It's Friday noon. Perfect time to review the week and prospective weekend with Gumbo over a brewski and some lunch at Sam's. We choose the bar and each pull up a stool. Real men don't do sundecks. Not being real men, we sometimes do.

Topics discussed over a couple Bass Ales, one Philly cheese and one chicken wrap:
  • Center Street rumors - Tonic has been sold and will become a sports bar; Brickhouse/Gorilla Joe's will reopen shortly as the "Groggy Frog" and will go after the young professional crowd (yeah, right);
  • What year will Emilio's open shortly in?
  • The new seafood place on Eden Avenue not a keeper
  • Apple Fest crunch time; things looking pretty good; some good music entertainment coming in

    Gulp, gulp......we're outta here!
