I need a new place

The Oyster Bar above Fishmonger's is pretty good, especially on a Friday afternoon ($5/dozen), and Federal has kept the high quality of the kitchen going even after Andy left to start Piedmont, which is finally open as of this week (more on that later), but none of those places has the same atmosphere that Jo and Joe's was able to create.

The Green Room has some possibilities. Lots of beer, mellow crowd, pool at all skill levels, great juke box. No food though, and it's a smoking allowed everywhere establishment. But new owner Andy knew my name on my second visit this weekend, and they do have an unusual set of house rules for a pool hall.



I'll have to add it to the rotation and see if it fits.
