Man oh man - its been slow around my office lately . . . and you know how 'they' say "idle hands are the Devil's work" . . . been cutting out at noon each day in search of the perfect bar. Yesterday was no exception; I hit up the bar at Dakota's - a nice spot located underground in Downtown Dallas . . . I like a spot with history (ie. I once at a pastrami on rye standing on the "x" that marked where Kennedy was shot) . . .so Dakota's didn't disappoint. Consider this:
Dakota's unique underground location has an interesting story behind it. It is located one level below street level on a section of real estate that was once occupied by the First Dallas Baptist church. There is a legally binding clause in the deed that prohibits any future owner from selling alcohol on former church grounds. Because "on the grounds" and "below ground" are two different terms, and because Lincoln Property Company wanted a restaurant to anchor their international headquarters, land was excavated and the restaurant was placed 18 feet below street grade.
Even if the drinks at Dakota's sucked donkey scrotes, I'd still patronize the place n light of the ingenuity and tenacity of the good folks who realized that when it comes to alcohol sales, there is always more than one way to skin a cat.
Do you guys know if the Brazil friendly will be televised today?

LOL re Buffalo Joes - we hit it up last night . . . not too shabby - quiet - good drinks - we hit it up after being packed like sardines into Quinlan's - which is a new bar across from Mena's . . . I didn't know the area prior to moving in - I bet Zuzu's is now Mena's - good spot... we love it there! El Portal next door is the colombian spot to watch all So. American action... No booze though! Plus - right around the corner from a Condom Sense store - which I find nice on those evenings when after eating fajitas I want to buy a double dong.

We'll have to hook up - My wife and I promise that if you meet up with us, it won't end up like some sort of craigslist "NSA" events . . . you know ... like when you go out on a Wednesday night but then wake up Friday morning in Nuevo Laredo with half your head shaven and your bottom hurting.
