I have friends that have eaten them in south america, supposed to be pretty ok. Don't know if I'd trust a restaurant not run by people from that region to prepare it well.
Also, yes, they are adorable.

mea culpa, i went to chino latino as recently as last week for happy hour with a friend (who, incidentally, was the one who alerted me to the racist ad via facebook). i guess it was more accurately a "girls night out," as i was the only guy there and all they did was talk about sex and stupid boys. i had a "reverse cowgirl" cocktail and jerk chicken wings, and, subsequently, GI distress.
i have always kinda liked the weird glittery facade.
but yeah parasole restaurants are something else...for a while i thought red stag and barbette were parasole, which totally didn't square up with everything else i knew about them

fuckin' chino latino
i forgot that place is still open, is it still busy? felt like a place that would have a short shelf life after it's period as a "hot spot"
but then again

― SHUT UP AND GET YOUR TURKEY SCIENCE BOOKS (Austerity Ponies), Friday, 30 November 2012 17:26 (eleven years ago) link
still never been to red stag, BLB is an occasional thing for me
barbette...look, it's irresponsible as a grad student, but let's just say that the waitstaff knows my name there

there's this guy who is a complete douche business owner in Des Moines and his MO appears to be that he finds a business that is doing OK, buys it, and then just uses the exact same concept to open more of them elsewhere. He bought what was a neighborhood bar w/food probably five years ago, then opened a bar in a suburb with the exact same name
so as I walked through mpls a couple months ago, I could only laugh: enjoy the Wellmans Pub, guys! (formerly Drink: The Original Party Bar)

i forgot that place is still open, is it still busy?
during happy hour on a saturday night (the first time i've been in years) the place was packed to the fucking gills.

oh god Drink. went there once with ex-gf (we had just had, and vaguely reconciled, an argument, it was the most ready to hand), i hated it.
i basically hate every bar in uptown proper, rip uptown
― well if it isn't old 11 cameras simon (gbx), Friday, 30 November 2012 17:34 (eleven years ago) link
oh shit I forgot there was/is one in uptown
the one that's going to be Authentic Neighborhood Bar is downtown
― mayor mcpotle (mh), Friday, 30 November 2012 17:38 (eleven years ago) link
what's that seafoood place that's multi-story in uptown? I saw a fistfight break out in the middle of a weekend afternoon on the rooftop bar there. yeeeah.

Does Barbette still have those lamb sliders? Those are really tasty. Love the fries and the house wine at happy hour.
― SHUT UP AND GET YOUR TURKEY SCIENCE BOOKS (Austerity Ponies), Friday, 30 November 2012 17:40 (eleven years ago) link
stella's. the seafood is...not good
dunno about lamb sliders, i usually just get brunch (it's hella close to my house)

Look forward to our US friends reaching the same state of post-racial utopia as our own students have apparently achieved.
