Last Wednesday night we had ambitious plans to knock out a couple more of the stops on the Saint Arnold’s scavenger hunt and then get a bite to eat at Cipollina. We have never been but I was enticed to go–let me tell you why. Trekking through the neighborhood the other day on our way to Fresh Plus grocery, there [...]

The Screaming Goat is about half a block off of Lamar on 10th Street. Catchy name but I have never actually seen this little spot on my many treks down Lamar. It’s in an old house with wood floors and a few different rooms. A limited outdoor dining space, okay it is really a single picnic [...]
