Bon Jovi is blasting on MTV, my wife is busy in the kitchen, and here I am, just sitting in my boxers waiting for the Champions League to start... Life is pretty sweet sometimes
Personally, I can never go wrong with that one; it’s an absolute classic 🙏
I much prefer the vibe over at Il Secondo on Avenue Malla. I accidentally wandered into that tourist trap today by mistake Now I see that Thompson is standing right there in the plaza 🤣
I once heard that line, "I am a true American," from 🎉 ...
They have some of the most incredible desserts you’ll ever taste, and honestly, the pasta is pretty solid too. It’s definitely a mainstream spot, but they really know what they're doing...
I'll probably just catch a movie until then, though I noticed Sky News has an entire night dedicated to coverage of the fight. I suspect the whole thing is going to be a complete overdose of nonsense
The day started out gray and gloomy. I was up at the crack of dawn, buried under a mountain of work, and spent my afternoon browsing through some Fifty Shades of Grey material for my wife, but honestly, tonight is going to be absolutely wild 🙏
What on earth is happening downtown? I was over by Boban's place and there were nothing but those damn extremist caps everywhere
Right now, Zero Zero is easily my top pick. The dough is incredibly fine, almost like silk, and you can tell the ingredients are fresh and high-end. It’s a bit pricier, sure, but honestly, it’s worth every penny. As for Paesano, it just didn't hit the mark for me. It was way too salty and the portions were oversized, but when it comes down to actual quality, it falls short of what I expect...

I need to pick up something in that part of town, since I'll be heading over to Zološki for a bit... pure romance, really. It brings back memories of the good old days, though it's a shame I'm getting older and stuck with my wife...
Personally, I think their white pizza with prosciutto and arugula is top-tier. Honestly, one of the best out there.
Zološki is always where it's at. Give my best to those idiots; I've always been on good terms with them...

If you’re craving pizza, Dukes is actually fantastic. If you want something grilled, there's that Mexican place nearby, though I don't know much about their menu—it's a bit too far out of my way...
Robin Fox2 said:Stopped by the AT&T store today, just to see if they actually serve those massive portions...
Are you talking about that place with the gyros?
I stopped by Carpaccio this past Saturday, and honestly, the food was alright, but that’s about it. You definitely expect a lot more when you see those prices on the menu...
Honestly, I’m right there with you. I spent all day yesterday trekking from the stadium area over to downtown, and finally ended up hanging out at the Mall of America late last night. Things are definitely looking up...
