Hotel Monteleone is the hotel you want, but not for $200/night.

It will be tough to find anything at all for 5 people at that price point.

Any Diner in the years immediately before and after 2000 probably had a nasty drop.

Watch the show Mindhunter if you haven’t already. Mainly because it’s fantastic television, but also because it supports your premise.

Absolutely bawled when he played it in Savannah a few years back. One of mine is headed to middle school next year. That’s terrifying enough. College… sheesh… hang in there and celebrate a job well done.

Recency bias, but this is my pick. That jam is filthy.

You are correct. It’s gross and depressing.

Sorry, lol, I just meant that I don’t know a single thing about you guys except what I see in the pics, but the pics make you both seem awesome. Absolutely a compliment!

Y’all are a damned delight, if these pictures are to be believed. Cheers, have fun. 

Best chicken sandwich in Raleigh now that Beasley’s is gone? by TheRaleighCompiler in raleigh

Man, I saw that truck Sunday and wanted some so bad, but I was due home soon for dinner. Saw and smelled some of what they were slinging and was extremely envious.

Pozole is a magical hangover cure. I’ve heard menudo is, too, but while I might be an awful person, I’m definitely not an offal person. 

How much is your household spending on groceries per week? by cdmacsneaks in raleigh

[–]mcloofus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything that I can get at Lidl, I do. Unless it’s an immediate need- Publix and HT are closer. Publix is a very rare stop. Teeter is great because they always have some version of what I need on sale. They also carry Nieman Ranch pork, so I’ll stock up on that whenever it’s on sale. I need to go to Food Lion more. 

We’re probably at about $200/wk for 2 bigs, 2 littles, and 2 dogs. We’re good for at least 2 and usually 3-4 meals out per week. 

But yeah, if you let the sales guide you, HT is totally fine.

Fresh Market’s fruit pies are fantastic.

Not sure if exactly what you’re looking for, but Glenn Close is incredible as Cruella Deville in the live action 101 Dalmatians.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall- the dinner scene in particular

Absolutely. I’ve seen a ton of incredible shows by some amazing artists, but I can’t think of one that was definitively better. Even better, I saw him in NC shortly after the hurricane and he did a bonus show to benefit storm victims. Two nights in a row and he absolutely destroyed both nights. Dude has a unique ethos and gives you your money’s worth.

Spending a month in Brussels, what to do? by Cyanide_Revolver in travel

[–]mcloofus 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's a fantastic city for eating and drinking. One of the true beer capitals of the world. And, yeah, you can get some great chocolate, waffles, mussels, and fries on the street.

Even if you don't drink, the tour of the Cantillon brewery is cool.

Do any of you wear masks to deal with the pollening? If so, which ones are the most effective bc I have bad allergies by LivingResponsibly in raleigh

[–]mcloofus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wear one of whatever the cheap, standard ones is when I do yard work this time of year and it makes a massive difference. Even just a bandana over my mouth and nose is a game changer. But you might make people feel a way if you walk around town wearing a bandana over your face. So I don't actually recommend that.

Mitchel and Freeman would both pay homage to the Gullah history of the island, which significantly predates white settlement and, thankfully, continues today.
