Hugh Jass Happy Hour

9-12 am is when the money saving starts. Huge Jass burgers at Ave of Champions and S. Limestone may have the cheapest happy hour in Lexington. .75 cent natty draft is down right unbelievable. At that price you can afford the cab ride home. Booze monster approves.

Galvins In Georgetown KY


I was in Georgetown the other day on business. After my meeting I decided to grab a bite to eat. Under the recommendation of a local yokel, I headed to Galvins.

Galvins is a cute little bar in the middle of downtown Georgetown. The bar is mid sized, but big for a downtown location. The bar looks like it has been updated recently and featured a big wooden bar in the shape of a large square. They have 3 and a half rows of booths and tables, and probably could easily fit a few hundred people. The place was pretty snazzy and I'm sure it is packed for sports games. Over all it was a nice atmosphere.

Their menu was deep and featured many foods, ranging from burgers to pizza. They didn't have their drink prices posted so I couldn't say how they fair... probably average if I had to guess.

I ordered the buffalo chicken hoaggie and my lady got the philly stromboli. They were decently priced ($7 ish). They came pretty fast. The portions were very generous. I was very pleased.

The buffalo chicken was not a traditional buffalo sauce. It was more like a tangy honey mustard. It was very delish however it just wasn't what I was expecting. I wasn't disappointed, but a little thrown off. Very good sandwich. The stromboli was very very good. Kind of like a big calzone. It came with a side of marinara which was necessary but good. Overall the food was a huge success. I would eat there again.

Had a good time and highly recommended.

Sidebar Grill on Limestone


My buddy and I wanted to check out the new Sidebar Grill on Limestone the other day. It is located where The Bistro used to be. Inside the facility has been totally remodeled with nice industrial styled fixtures, a brand new bar and really cool art. The place looks like a bar you might find in a big city.

So, yes, it is a bar, but it is also a grill. They serve up one very mean and tasty black bean burger, and great fries too. The food is cooked to serve and the best part is that they make food from Lunch to late night. That is awesome for a down town establishment. Great because anyone downtown at 4 pm knows how hard it is to find something to eat. The Sidebar's menu has a variety of pub grubs . . . burgers, sandwiches, etc. But there are a few interesting things like fish and chips and the Sidebar flat iron steak.

Now the important part: drink prices and booze. Right at the moment Sidebar is beer only, however they just got their liquor license and are prepping to stock the bar. Perhaps they should throw a stock the bar party. Whatever the case, they probably have the best beer prices for downtown. They got $3 24oz Pabst and $2 Draft Miller Lt. What else do you need? Cheap beer, good food, cool atmosphere and probably one of the nicest bar tenders / owners ever. You don't need much else.

The side bar just opened, but we're sure it will stay that way for a very long time.

Woodford Reserve Distillery Tour

A few months ago I took a tour out at the Woodford Reserve distillery. I never posted anything about it because I'm a slow ass. I don't know why I hadn't been there before. I only live about 10 miles from it and I love bourbon. Whatever. I had a good time.

The distillery is about 3 miles out side of Versailles KY. It is pretty far off of the main road. You have to drive out to the distillery, and if you've ever been to a winery or a distillery before then you'd know that they usually are off the beaten path a bit. Woodford is no different. The land it sits on is beautiful. Lots of acreage, a nice little creek that they used to use in the Bourbon. Lots of barns and stuff. Just really really pretty.

Woodford lets you tour the entire facility; everything from the big ass cyprus ferminting tanks to the copper distillers on to the warehouses that hold the oak barrels for aging. The tour is really insightful and anyone interested in how their booze is made will enjoy the tour. Our guide was a little ridiculous. I can't remember his name, but he made silly jokes and such, but overall it was very enjoyable.

The tour concludes with a shot and some bourbon ball chocolates. You can chill in their visitor center and read up on the distilling process even more if you wish. If you want to buy a bottle or barrel of Woodford Reserve you can. Bottles run around $40 and barrels around $10,000 for the reserve stuff.

I'd definitely suggest taking the tour if you are interested at all in Bourbon Whiskey and it is a very very cool place to visit. If you are from Kentucky, you should go and if you are just visiting, then definitely put it on the places to stop. Woodford Reserved couldn't be more in the heart of Bourbon/Horse country.

Centerpoint Nutscraper Lexington KY


My office overlooks a gaping hole in Lexington. It isn't Lexington Crossings what you're thinking; It's where the Dame and Buster's used to be. Right now it is a muddy pit, but come spring it will be one giant, multimillion dollar weed pit.

I was hoping as they finished knocking down the Dame in July I would see some penis shaped frame of a building being constructed by spring time, but it seems that I will be lucky to have a foundation being poured if that. Now I wasn't some crazy, historical, socialista, clawing tooth and nail to save those grimey, fantastic dives, but I won't lie and say I'm not a bit pissed. I'd hate to think that the Webbs knocked down some decent "crappy" buildings just to replace it with a f'n marsh in the middle of Lexington.

I wish I could say this is the first time something in Lexington was knocked down and left knocked down without a proper replacement. Back in the day there was a fantastic old hotel in Lexington called the Phoenix Hill Hotel. Now I'll probably screw up the story, but it seems they knocked down the hotel to build a grander more awesome hotel in its place. I'm sure what was to go there was nothing compared to the phallic masterpiece that is Centerpoint, but I digress, a hotel of grander proportions was to go in the Phoenix Hill lot. So the hotel was demolished, and just as the rubble was being moved to some sink hole in KY, the funding for the new hotel was dropped. WTF?? What happened?? Well, Lexington did what any city would do, they bought a portion and made a public library, and the remaineder was turned into a refuge for the homeless a park. Where the once magnificient Phoenix Hill hotel stood, now stands the magnificient, urine stained Phoenix Hill Park. HOORAY!!!!

Sooooo... What's up Webbs? Where's my Centerpoint? Did you lose your plans with the crash of the economy, or were those plans washed away with the rest of KY's state funded programs?

I'm tired of bitchin' but the next time you descide to knock down a block of profitable buildings to replace it with a giant dick building, DON'T! Buy a sports car like all other wealthy people trying to compensate.

Tin Roof Bar and Music in Lexington


Over the past months, the Tin Roof has been renovating and demolishing what used to be Huddle House on Lime. I never ate at Huddlehouse so I don't really miss it. However I am really looking forward to another music venue in Lex. After the Webbs totally demolished the Buster's/Dame Block, music in Lex hit a changing point. Not necessarily for the negative, but definitely a change. After the Dame took over the A1A/Mainstreet live music hall things haven't been the same. As I said not necessarily for the worse, but just different. Luckily the Tin Roof is coming. I really hope this hope won't jinx the quality. The Dame still rox out with it awesome music connections and getting really legit groups to hit Lex, but I really hope that the Tin Roof can overcome some of the obstacles that Lex is faced with now. Sure the Dame is still on Main and sure there are other music venues too, but I still think another major music venue in Lex will increase diversity as well as lend itself to getting even more music choices in Lex. All I can say is that we need another music hall and I'm glad that the Tin Roof isn't letting us down (yet as it still hasn't opened). So in closing, Tin Roof, being a Nashville native, you should totally understand the importance of good music in town... so get us some good music will you. We need it.

Mellow Mushroom My Hippy Friend


I'm not calling Mellow Mushroom a hippy haven, no I'd never do that, but you know... you may feel the urge to start wearing Birkenstocks if you eat there. I know what your thinking though, "Is it good?" Oh yes, it is good, but the important thing is when you go.

You should go to the Shroom at lunch time, definitely. For lunch they have some great deals going on. You can get 2 slices and a drink or a half (gigantic) sub and a drink or a salad and a slice and a drink and all these meals run around 6 bux. Of all their fantastic slices, their ham reigns supreme for meeeee.

The ham they use has some kind of special hippy magic in it. It is smokey but really sweet. Maybe they get the hogs high or something, who knows, but the result is one anyone would love.

On the booze side of things, they have a great happy hour (actually 2 hours) 4-6 mon-fri (I think) During that time you can grab one of their many micro brews for about $3. If you are a bit on the poor side, like me, you can score a draft PBR for $1.60. I'm pretty sure that is one of the best Drink prices in town, if not the best.

When you head to Mellow Mushroom expect lots of vibrant colors, a big cartoony looking tree and the smell of parmasean and patchouli (j/k). If you like good food and a fun atmospher, you're gonna enjoy yourself. I do everytime.

Bar Louie / Mandarin Cafe Lexington KY

The other night I was looking for a new place to eat. I was on the prowl for some new cuisine. In Lex that is a bit hard for me, cuz I've been most places. So as I was thinking about where I could go I thought about Bar Louie. Ole' Louie is pretty new, it's located in Lexington Green where Ruby Tuesday used to be. We headed there, expecting it to be about as busy as Ruby Tuesday used to be, and well, it wasn't.

Over Run
As we pulled into Lex Green, we should have just turned around. The parking lot was bursting at the seams, and that doesn't happen normally. Turns out there was some big comedian at Comedy Off Broadway . We waited for a bit, looked around, but then decided to go to Mandarine Asian Cafe instead. Overall I would have stayed at Bar louie, but oh well, we left. We'll have to go back.

Mandarine
This isn't the first time we've eaten at Mandarine. The place has a following. Be prepared to wait if it is the weekend. What's good? The Red Devil Sushi Roll is life changing. It is usually a 12 dollar roll, but they had it on special and man . . . . . . . . .speechless. Everything else is pretty good. Be careful though, on some meals the description might be a little misleading, but if you find that diamond, then you'll be changed forever. Good stuff.

Texas Holdem' Lexington KY : Friend's and Company


This Thursday Friends and Company on Lane Allen in Lexington KY hosted a Texas Holdem' card tournament. I don't know how frequently this occurs, but if you are interested in playing cards you should call Friends and Company and see if they have any tournaments coming up or if they'll ever host one again. The crowd looked pretty full last night. I'd say they were running about 5 tables. I don't know if that is a lot or what.

Lazer Tag, Skating and Beer: Lexington KY


My name is Boozemonster and I review places and activities that I do and include them on the site as long as they involve beer or booze in any for. So I know you're all anxiously awaiting this new and fun activitiy with bated breath.

Last night, being a Thursday, a troop of us headed to Champs Skating Rink. Champs has been a fixture of Lexington KY for decades and decades, however Champs is enjoying a new larger, new, cooler facility off of Wellington Way. It resides next to Meijers off of Nicholasville Rd, for those of you who might not know the road.

What makes Thursdays so important? Well it is unlimited skating, Lazer Tag and pizza from 5 to 9pm for $12 + a $2.50 skate rental if you need skates.

Was it fun and worth the money? Would you suggest it to someone who isn't 12 years old? What was the crowd like? Tell me, Tell me please!!!!! It was fun, and no I'm not 12 years old. Is it a good deal? Absolutely, lazer tag alone runs $8 bux a game on weekends. Was the pizza decent? Absolutely, and what a variety! They had really good barbeque chicken pizza, a cheezeburger pizza with fries on it, and a few other interesting concotions that were rather tastey. All in all the lazer tag and pizza make it a definite go, but the skating rink was fun as well. My group skated for about an hour and the rest of the time was spent playing lazer tag.

The lazer tag arena was very large, had an aztec/mayan temple feel and was chock full of black lights, smoke, and nooks to hide in, not to mention loads of little kids to tag.

If you've stayed with me so far, what about the beers, right?! Well Champs does have a little lounge for the older kids as well as the adults that might be a little stressed. Their drink prices are as follows: Champs 2.75 bud lt draft 3.50 bottles .... Not exactly the cheapest beer in town, but still a welcome potential nonetheless.

So if you're looking for something fun and economical that will bring out the pre-drunk in you for a Thursday night in Lex, Champs is a possibility that I'll definitely be checking out again.

Oh yeah, and F' some ice blizzard and not having electricity.

Puccini's Pizza is the Best in Lexington

So I've got a weakness. I love-a the Pizza, and Puccini's is the best. I can't help it. It has ruined me to other italian pies. It is by far the most superior pizza I've ever had. Tonight I had the Shrimp Catatori pizza. It has shrimp, chili oil, sun dried tomatoes, and as much awesome that can fit on a large pizza. If you haven't had Puccini's and you live in Lexington then you are missing out on some good stuff. Puccini's Smiling Teeth is the name, and my teeth would smile if they could. I love you Puccini!

Best New Years Parties in Lexington KY

Are you like many of the Lexingtonians that don't have New Year's plans until the last minute. I know I am. I never know what I'm doing or not doing until the last minute. The only thing I know I'll be doing New Year's is getting ripped. But where? Well there are a few options.

If you don't know where to get started here is a list of the Lexington KY New Years Parties

1. Go down town. There are plenty of places to go downtown. Most places will be having drink specials of some sort, and it should be a good time. The good thing about down town is that there are lots of bar really close to one another. If you don't like the skeezy lushes at one bar, go get your drink on at another. I'm sure that Victorian Square will get blowed up this year since there are so many options in such a small place. That's my bet where the party will be.

2. Go to a Hotel. Hotels are notorious for throwing big New years bashes. Bigg Blue martini at the Hotel previously known as the Radison is throwing a $50 (drink but don't stay )drunk fest or the $259 drink and pass out at our hotel package. Other notables is the reuniting and then disbanding of Long Duk Dong at the Holiday Inn North on Newtown pike. These are just a few tasty morsels of awesome going on at local hotels in the area.

3. Go to a Strip club. New years is definitely a holiday with a high potential for getting ass. You mix party goers with booze and you've got the mixing of a cocktail party, no pun intended. But for those of you, who just can't stand the possibility of no titties, a strip club is the answer. New Years at a strip club actually sounds like fun, of course I like booze and I like titties, but having a wife nixes most of the things I like. So for all you guys and gals who don't have balls or chains, get yer self to a strip club to watch the ball drop. Place to go? Platinum Plus is throwing a big one for $10 cover.

4. Go out for dinner. If your idea of excitement is watching Dancing with the Stars, perhaps a bar is a little to crazy for you. Maybe you should concentrate on smaller venues and just hit up a good restaurant. Most nice restaurants have New Year's meals that have a little something special. Ruby Tuesdays has a 3 or 4 course meal for couples on New Years, not to mention $10 bottles of wine. Not too shabby for those who don't mind a chain. Other potentials are Dudleys or any other restaurant in town.

5. Go to a friends party. This one is tricky, cuz it requires having friends. If you do have friends, then go out with them. If you don't go to a strip club. A few ones ($1) will get you some psuedo-friends for the evening.

6. House Party with Jim and Jack. Nothing says New Year's like drinking alone at home. I've not done it, but it is always a possibility. . . . . wait. Don't party at home by yourself, Go to a strip club.

Best Maragrita in Lexington



Everyone loves a good margarita; I know I do. But where is the best place to get one? The answer is a trick one. The best margarita is one served with buddies.


The best margarita is the 2 for 1 margarita.... Ha... I'm so clever.

however there are some really fantastic places in Lexington to get a margarita and below I will expound on them...

LOS ALAZANES, Lexington KY (Harrodsburg RD, Next to The Wafflehouse at Red Mile)
This place has got the best margaritas in Lexington. They are sooo good. Fresh, good tequila, and very little sweet and sour. You could drink a bucket of these and not suffer the dreaded heart burn associated with heavy consumption of this delectable mexican libation. Out of all of the places I've gotten margaritas this one is my first pick for awesomeness... The food is also killer and the atmosphere is pretty top notch. If you've never been, check it out. They also have 2 fer 1 margs on Thursday, and probably other nights if it is slow and you tip your server. Don't tell them I told you that. The typical marg is $4.25 and worth every damn penny.

RINCON, Lexington KY (Next to Charlie Browns on Euclid)
Every college kid over 21 has experienced the awesome that is RINCON! The place looks like a pinata filled with awesome exploded. The food is great, but the real reason everyone goes is the super liquored frozen margaritas. I'm pretty sure their deal is every Tues and Thurs, and they may even throw a Sunday in too...Givem a call to find out. The great part of their margaritas is the selection. You can get on the rocks or frozen, and if you opt for frozen you can pick from 10 flavors ranging from strawberry to orange, or if you are really drunk, red to orange.

Mi Pacenia Hacienda (off Lansdown)
This place used to be owned and run by the same peeps that run Rincon. When I first moved to lex this was the place for margaritas. The location is excellent and probably the biggest of all the restaurants listed. They serve up the same awesome margaritas that Rincon on Euclid do. One excellent addition to this location over Rincon is the amazing patio. This place is hopping in good weather and on the weekends they usually have some mexican band on hand to annoy the patrons. It is great if you're drinkin and rowdy, but not so great if you aren't impressed by Hispanic men in super tight sequenced jump suits singing spanish songs drunk patrons sing along too even if they don't know spanish or the song. That was a long sentence, but makes sense if you've ever been.

When I want a Margarita, I go one of these places.... where do you go?

Saul Good = It's Pretty Good / Lexington KY

The past 2 years has completely transformed the Fayette Mall Plaza. The mall area has been littered by new eateries and places to get your drink on after a grueling day of consumerism. Saul Good is just one of those places to open in the Fayette Mall Plaza. SO how does it fair? Should you go or stick to TGIFridays?

GO! Saul Good's menu is filled with traditional items created in non-traditional flair. You'll see pizzas and burgers, but expect more than a traditional pie. They've got a mexican pizza, that will make sad you called it Mexican (I'm shameful, I know). The other pizzas are fricken awesome too.. Truthfully I've only had one pizza and it was the Argentinian Steak pizza with steak, pesto, peppers and a brie cheese. It was the bomb. But to my credit I did sniff someone else's pizza while there.

Besides pizza's they got burgers and sandwiches, and beer and a desert list that will make any sugar-nut nut. The burgers look good. Haven't had any, but they look good. The sandwiches, look good, but haven't been tried. SO what else did I try besides the pizza?

Beer. I had a beer. I had a Red Hook Seasonal harvest ale beer. It was good and reasonably priced ($3.75) Saul Good's got a pretty good beer selection. They've a few Goose Island drafts, and Sam Adams and Guinness and draft KY ALE Bourbon Barrel. You're not going to find anything too rare, but expect good beer. One novelty is that they have a vertical glass cleaner to rinse your glass before they pour which is cool, and they also have a refrigerated draft despensing system that ices the tap and serves the beer at the perfect chilled temperature.

Now all that stuff is really cool and all, and you won't be disappointed, but I know what you're thinking... "Booze Monster, Why should I really go to Saul Good?" Well, I'm glad you asked. YOu should go for the White Chocolate Cheese cake. Is it worth the $8? Is a Thai hooker worth $100?? ABSOLUTELY! Saul Good's White Chocolate Cheese Orgasm is like losing your virginity to Angelina Joli (That goes for men and women).

SO if I your poor like me, have a slice at the mall cafeteria, then run over to Saul Good for a hunk of cheese cake then stop by Liquor Barn for a 24 pack of Jacob's best for $9. It will be the best $25 you ever spent.

For Pictures of food and stuff... GO>>

Todds Karaoke turned 5 last week


Happy belated b-day Todd. I was there to celebrate, but this is the official shout out.
So Todds Karaoke off Alexandria dr. turned 5 last Saturday, Oct. 3rd. There was karaoke and beer and drinks and lots of people, singing and drinking beer. It was really cool. They also had drawings for prizes and stuff. In fact, my girl won us some awesome AC/DC apparel, which I'm never going to take off.

Overall it was an excellent turnout and super fun time, leading me to believe Todds will be around for another b-day or two.

Todds just turned 5. I remember before Todd's was Todd's it was a karaoke bar named "Bullfrog" and Beamers". It was pretty much the exact same bar, but with a different name.

Well.. I guess that is all. Way to go Todd's you old bastard you!

Pazzos Pizza Pub

I honestly don't know how I have missed reviewing Pazzo's Pizza Pub. There probably isn't a more popular pizza pub in Lexington. There are so many things to like (probably love) about Pazzos.

The first thing I love about Pazzos is the free parking if you eat there. Wait... no the first thing I love about Pazzos is the fantastic pizza. No, definitely the best part of Pazzos is the beer. The massive amounts of beer. The crazy huge amount of draft beers. I love beer, therefore I love Pazzos.

Back in the summer Pazzos added a patio and lounge area up stairs. It is pretty awesome. The patio is gigantic and great and awesome and great.

Let's talk about beer. Pazzos has like 25 taps with all kinds of crazy brews. They've got IPA's and Chocolate stouts. Their beer selection is out of control. They have a pretty good happy hour and they offer a daily beer special through the week. Their happy hour also has appetizer specials, which means you can get their hand tossed pretzels and marinara for like 3 bux.

Red Mile Race track in Lexington


Last Thursday we didn't know what to do. Regular bars sounded kinda lame, and sittin' at home sounded lamer. So we decided to goto Red Mile race track for some harness racing.

What is so impressive about this is the fact that I've been in Lexington for 10 years and had never been to regular harness racing at Red Mile. Sure like, 10% of Lexingtonians I had been to Red Mile, usually under the guise of some event, like Junior League, or maybe a concert, but like most Lexingtonians, I had never been to the actual races, that Red Mile was built for.

Red Mile is really the red headed step child of horse racing in Lexington. Everyone knows Keeneland, and EVERYONE goes to Keeneland. If you live in Lexington, there are two things you must do, support the Wildcats, Goto Keeneland. But somehow Red Mile slipped through the cracks and got forgotten about.

Unfortunately Red Mile doesn't have the glamor and glitz that Keeneland has. Keeneland is prestigious an well bred (thoroughbred). It has a paddock and well groomed grounds. Red Mile looks like some Communist fortress built around 1950. The facilities are a bit dated (yellow flourescent lighting) and the grounds are a tad shabby (okay alot shabby).

I'm done bashing, here's my review. AWESOME! Going to Red Mile is like going to a flea market you can bet at and drink beer. The cool thing about Red Mile is it runs at night, so you can go after work. The harness races are hillarious. Since the horses run with the jockey behind them they start the race in a trot. This means the gate is moving... how do they move? Well they are pulled behind a fitted Cadillac. AWESOME!! Want carny food? Red Miles got you covered. Want beer? Got you covered there.

Why was it so much fun? Because it was like going back in time. Going to a place that had been untouched by corporate hands. Red Mile is like going to a carnival, but with less people. I honestly am surprised that the college kids haven't started hitting it up. It's only 2 bucks to get in, and it doesn't require binge drinking all day (since it opens at 6 ish) like Keeneland. You can go, get lit, bet some horses, and not be ashamed of wasting the entire day.

Red Mile is something that Lexington needs to embrace. It was fun and I'm not ashamed to admit it. It was good times. Check out pictures and drink prices of Red Mile in Lexington KY

Marikkas in Lexington, KY Gets new poopers

Ask anyone in Lexington where to go if you want to have over 200 different beers, they'll say Marikkas. Up until recently, you may be over joyed by the selection of beverages, but a little dismayed by the facilities to remove the used goods. In layman's terms, the shitters sucked. Well, no more.
Upon a recent visit to Marikkas I was excited to see that they had knocked down a wall, built a larger restroom for the mens and moved the women's. Overall the new facilities make number 1 and number 2 AWESOME!!!!

My enthusiasm may seem a little over the top, but pisser's are important when picking a place to party. Girls especially don't want to go to a place that resembles a porta-john at a football tailgate. Not that Marikka's was ever that bad, but the improvement deserves some accolade! Thank you Marikka's, thank you very much.

Thinking of checking out Marikka's? Find out prices and pictures of this fine German establishment or other Bars in Lexington

Caros on Upper, Lexington KY


It ain't a bar, but it is really really good. If you are in downtown Lexington, and you want to eat, it can be a challenge to find a place to eat. If you want a burger, then you have 2 maybe 3 choices. Well Caros is my pick of the lot.
Most of you probably don't even know about it. Perhaps you saw as you stumbled from McCarthy's at 2 in the morning, but Caros isn't open, so you ultimately missed it. I admit it, I missed it too, and I work right across the street. But that doesn't matter, cause now you know.

When you go there, be prepare for a few thousand calories. Expect big burgers, expect big fries, expect big flavors. If you don't like meat, you'll have to settle for fries and slaw... but that still isn't bad.

Caros has the best fries ever. They may appear to be plain ole' crinkle cut fries, but these fries have got magic dust. The fries have a special secret seasoning that is unique to Caros. I've had seasoned fries before, but Caros magic fry dust makes me fly away.

For sandwiches you won't be disappointed. The Bo'ski (shown in the above picture) is a two meal-er. It is 1/2 pound of meat on sour dough, a layer of fries, slaw, and just about every other fixin' you'd expect. The Hot Country Club is another fantastic sandwich... think club, but grilled, and smothered in cheese. The Boozer is a seasonal, but it has got me back 2 times. It's a burger, grilled onions, jack cheese, Heavenly heavenly bacon, lettuce, tom, and the finisher that sends this sandwich over the edge is a glob of beer cheese... yes, it is truly a feat of American artistry. It may be the best 3000 calories I've ever ingested.

Ultimately I recommend anything on the menu as long as it has bacon on it. Caros puts real bacon on its food. You'll understand the difference as soon as you take a bite. Real bacon is good...

Soooo... if you aren't headed there yet, you're a fool. For more info check their site Carosonupper.com
