Kimpton does the same thing. I'll see Kimpton sales for something in the range of $79-90 and after tax and the nasty fee it will be $125. Every time I see that I give up on the thought of an overnight.

We walked by on New Years Eve and they had a sign on the door saying they were closed but the lights were still on (no people).

My MSP trip report copied from another site with most of the hotel review removed: We had a good visit at the Kimpton Grand Hotel Minneapolis over memorial day. We love the Kimpton wine hours so we planned our day around that (also it was 95* out so that limited our time exploring). Each night they pour one white and one red wine from 5-6 PM and might have a small snack item as well. Two nights had a desert and the other night had fried pickles and I think the other was fries. Wine flows freely and we usually have about 3-4 glasses, the snack is limited. Given the 95* heat our exploration part of the day was short, but we used the hotel bikes twice. The first day when we arrived they were already out so we used the area bike share for $6/day per person (you have to dock the bike every 30 minutes). Our first trip on the hotel bikes were to a Indeed Brewing for sour beers (good), and Sociable Cider Werks for cider (also good), had it been cooler we would have stayed out most of the day to visit other brewers, but given the heat that was enough. The second trip on Monday Memorial day we put the bikes on the train/metro and went over to St Paul to visit Summit Ave to see the old grand houses and then down to some large Green Chair in a park. Food wise the highlight was a 10 course chefs tasting menu at Icehouse MPLS and Eastern European foods at Kramarczuk's a deli like restaurant. The IceHouse MPLS tasting menu is only $50 with $5 small drinks (cocktails/wine/beer your choice) to accompany the food whenever you wish. The food was good and it was fairly well timed. You sit at a bar facing the cooks. IceHouse MPLS is also a music venue and the night we were there they had the music area sort of blocked off so they could record a Spotify concert. At Kramarczuk's we bought a combination plate with smoked Ukrainian sausage, pierogi and a cabbage roll, and a bowl of goulascz. That ended up being a lot of food and we nibbled on Kramarczuk's food until our last day. One mistake we made was not exploring the Sky Walk system between all the downtown buildings until the last day. Maybe everything was closed over the weekend but it would have been handy to get around downtown in the AC’d Sky Walk system between buildings

In STL a few weeks ago I was looking up the Lewis and Clark boathouse on google maps and saw and ad for Group On tickets for $6 instead of $10. Went ahead and bought those and they marked them used via my phone.. First time using groupon in a while.

Auckland has "food courts" in high rise developments that were built in modern history. With small ethnic type food cooked in small spaces. But yes making something like Reading Terminal Market work would require either a developer/owner with a desire to make it happen. Or a local government who allowed it as a replacement for some sort of mandatory art space, setback or whatever.

I think the concept could work but it needs to be affordable to the vendors and guests. Lots of the food halls mentioned in the linked story seem like they are started by big names with high costs and rules. I guess what I'm saying is we need to try the Reading Terminal Market concept more. With an affordable rent and vendors who are actually cooking food in small spaces and its not all high end dinning. Reading Terminal Market is more similar to what you see in Singapore versus the Time Out food hall. Time out does work but its much more complex and costly all around.

These days my wife prefers non diary milk, and I only really consume milk on the weekends so it doesn’t make sense to by half gallons of milk as it goes bad. Really I only desire a cup or so per week. Usually buying smaller milk quantities of say pint are very costly. Therefore I’m looking for a source of small single serve milk packages like you would find in Europe for say 25 euro cents per box in some sort of bulk pack priced at a few euros. The official name of this packing is UHT (Ultra High-Temperature Pasteurization). Some says it kills the good bacteria but I’m less worried about that as I consume it in small quantities. What I see online and in local stores are usually Horizon Organic type single server boxes that cost roughly $1 for 8 oz. (one cup) in multipacks. I’m not yet ready to jump on that because it seems fairly pricy. I do have some powdered milk (which I drank growing up) but I use it in such a small quantity that it gets old and becomes not so tasty… So does anyone know where I could find something like this (1 cup UHT milk single serve packs) locally at a fairly low cost, say 50 cents per container? https://www.stockupexpress.com/parmalat-lil-milk-whole-milk.html

The blue line I rode today had a single car wrapped with advertising for this place. I don't recall seeing branding inside the train.

I don't know, it seems like multiple restaurants with their own ordering systems and seating? Patrons can hop from one place to another with a drink in hand. True food courts should allow you to grab something from each of multiple restaurants. Or for example six people get their preferred food and sit down at the same table. I guess I expect something more like Time Out Market Lisboa where you could sit at a bar at one of the stands to eat and drink something from just that vendor, or you could order what you want and take it to tables in the middle to combine it with something else such as a charcutaria plate, then add a suckling-pig sandwich, and then finish with coffee, all from different vendors.

This should have been corrected before I could no longer edit the post as no set menu had three courses, each had way more: It was as set meal, each version with numerous courses. You pick on of three set menus, we both went with the most expensive option that included wagyu beef.

I enjoyed Booeymonger in Bethesda when I worked in Bethesda prior to 2010. I liked the bagels and my favorite lunch was the: The Manhattan 7.50 Grilled roast beef, fresh spinach, bacon and melted cheddar cheese on a French baguette with a touch of house dressing I don't recall the catering. But I do find most catering meals not that exciting.

I've been told of a CEO who likes this place so much that he has brought his family to this place just to eat.

Your final version is much more PC, the email alert was much shorter Good point.

No because women are less likely to be hired into significant roles.

District taco is giving a free burrito all day with costume, my wife got one in old town Alexandria with only a mask.

I think restaurants also have sort of a minimum price for entrees. For example if you look at the menu online, that doesn't have cauliflower, the minimum entre price is Chicken Almondine at $30. I'd guess that the current menu price is probably more like $32, unless you are paying a premium for a "steak" of cauliflower. Also that menu had a side of cauliflower duet at $11, maybe that could be used as a substitute if you are going on the cheap....

I would guess this is the very cheap pink salmon fillets. I sure hope they are not sending the higher quality species over to "China" for processing. Having grown up fishing in Alaska I'm always bothered by advertisements for fresh "Wild Alaskan Salmon" without the species name. Of the five species (name salmon, I'm not including the two trouts that seem to be salmon these days) there is a HUGE difference in price, quality and taste.

For good coverage on the breach and suggestions on how to product yourself I recommend Krebs On Security. He is an internet security writer (was with WaPo at some point) who pisses off the type of people that create breaches by writing about who they are and the like. Because of that he gets doxed (including having the swat team at his home a few times) and generally harassed online so he speaks as someone with experience. His suggestions are here: https://krebsonsecurity.com/2017/09/the-equifax-breach-what-you-should-know/ (Primarily his recommendation is to freeze your credit including at Innovis which NPR doesn't mention. Innovis processes a lot of the store credit checks).

And the thing is right now the Acapulco's are the areas striking fear into the hearts of tourists (and the boarder areas). The Guadalajara's of Mexico don't crop up as much on the fear factor levels. I mean look at the top hit on google for Guadalajara drug shootings versus Acapulco drug shootings, on one hand the top hit on google is from 1993 versus 2007! If anything it feels like the tourist areas are more at risk, especially if you frequent discos and nightclubs late at night. Also it should not be overlooked that one of the big Mexican (and maybe more so Latin American) exports right now is a labor force who will work low paying jobs that keep our dining industry functioning.

I think you are thinking of the Bennigan's around the location of the Circuit City that is now the Big Lots? Nice quote from your self on Sakulthai.

That Red Lobster has been there since I moved here in 1998! Most of the vertical growth you are seeing has been in the past 5 or so years.

We ate on Friday at Edelweiss Restaurant in Staunton, VA. We enjoyed it. They let us split the German Sampler (Dinner) Chef’s choice of five of our most popular dishes: sauerbraten, gulasch, wiener schnitzel, rahmschnitzel, and jägerschnitzel (the plate also included sides) for $24.95 and we added potato paddies at just over $6 for three. They had a nice selection of German beers on tap in the $5-7 range, my wife bought a Dark Beer that ended up being fairly light and easy drinking (not a stout). Jägerschnitzel was our top item with wiener schnitzel coming in second (and the best left over). Rahmschnitzel was great as well. The Hungarian-Style Goulash (Dinner) included in the sampler had huge chunks of pork in it and didn't seem at all similar to the Goulash we had in cheaper places in Budapest. The sauerbraten was our least favorite item. We had a good amount left over so we ate that for breakfast in the hotel (a recently renovated fairly nice room in a Motel 6 just north of town that was only $56). One of the daily specials was a ham hock similar to what we had in brussels last year, but this ham hock looked very large, a single woman was eating one and i'm sure she took home pounds of meet. I'd recommend stopping by if you are in transit down I-81 and have time. We were heading the the VA Craft Brew festival in Charlottesville the next day and were very happy that we choose to drive closer on Friday and only had the 45 minute drive the next day.
