Now I'm interested in this Dexter's replacement. Brian is great.

Gay sports bar? Woofs in Atlanta was fun; hopefully this will be something in that vein.

Crate & Barrel is no more? Shows how often I go to the mall. I liked the Whataburger in Tallahassee long ago. Caveat, drinking was typically involved before eating there though.

It can work verbally if you spin it right so it's "I *could* care less..." with an implicit "...but it would be difficult". I've read that is where that phrasing came from but with English, who knows.

I was very sad that Bruno left and am very happy that Orlando Meats is coming in. This forum is an emotional roller coaster.

Nice list (although poor Sanford is just glommed into Orlando without so much as a mention). Seems like their definition of "best" is "does whatever it is they are doing well, even if what they are doing is being a dive". I guess I need to go out to Disney to hit the few I have not been to already. How old is the tequila bar at Epcot? I've definitely had margarita's in Ep-Mexico but it's been years and I don't remember the bar looking that nice. I think we just got ours at a little stand or something.

They way it's depicted it may help break the curse on that space. A big problem has been just getting people to that side door since it seems like...well, a side door. It looks like they are trying to move the perceived entrance up to Church St., which seems like a good idea to me. I get that they aren't literally moving the door but that framework looks a lot more like "a thing that I am supposed to walk through" than the old alley/back patio thing.

Also, I don't want to go on Instagram because I haven't seen Endgame yet (so, no link) but word is that Suffering Bast_rd (tiki bar) in Sanford is finally open. Looks great from the pics I've seen. Sanford bar and restaurant scene is really hitting it. TIL, this forum auto-corrects the spelled out version of Bast_rd with "Beotch", which I would think would be more offensive.

Very sad to see that Pizza Bruno is leaving downtown at the end of April. https://bungalower.com/2019/04/22/pizza-bruno-leaving-orange-county-brewers/

The blood orange Slurpee sounds kind of good to me. :/

Isn't there still a MFC on Edgewater?

Wow, that didn't take long. How long were they even open? 3 months or so? I didn't really get why anyone would open a chain taco shop right in the middle of neighborhood that is brimming with good, established taco places though.

I wish this concept would take off more locally. Courtesy has a nice array of vermouths, amaros, etc. but a lot of bartenders aren't well-versed in session-type cocktails. I've got no problem with Campari and soda but it's nice to have additional options.

Here are a couple of photos from Robinson Room. I just stopped in for one since I was meeting friends elsewhere but it looked nice and my drink was good. HH is an $8 cocktail list with some other options (I forget the specifics re: beer/wine). The drinks were craft. It wasn't as gloomy as my poor photography skills might suggest.

The Globe wasn't my favorite but I loved The Go Lounge and Yab Yum.
