If we’re going to do all 50 bars in a year, we better accelerate our pace!
We hit #3 on Friday, December 5th and are going
for #4 next Friday. We have to get
our priorities straight and stop letting the holidays, family obligations, and
careers get in the way of our mission.
Even Kevin admitted that we may have to start combining trips based on
geographic location.
Anyway, #3 was The Industry in Pennsport. It was a cool part of town. We all felt safe and parking was fairly
easy to manage. Easy for me to say
when Kevin is at the wheel parallel parking. My daughter thinks it horrible that we always mooch a ride,
but someday we’ll make it up to the Fryars and Sheehans. We promise.
The bar itself was beautiful. Great décor. I
love the Edison filament lights. They instantly warm the space as well as my
heart. The Industry is apparently
devoted to the restaurant industry itself and gives restaurant workers 20% off
the bill when they show a pay stub from any restaurant or bar. Love the concept to help one’s own.
Ratings:
Vibe: Good
neighborhood energy. Pretty churches, cool houses. Nice airy open feel.
Server:
Pleasant, attentive. Put up
with our nonsense.
Drinks: Great. Lots of local beer options. We sneaked
in just before Happy Hour ended at 7pm.
Food : B+. Good,
but not OMG amazing. I do regret
not getting the Mac and Cheese croquettes. What was I thinking?
We were naughty and got the donuts with cream sauce for dessert. Well
worth it!
Friendship: It’s
easier to get through a long week when I know these five are awaiting me. Nothing is better than a bellyache
caused by laughing with my best friends.
47 to go!
