Heading up again in a couple weeks

For those living there or more familiar (usually up for shows and meetings and not much time to explore), where are the best blues bars.  Terra Blues seems to be the more popular for pure blues.  Anyone been there?  Most have jazz and blues.  Not a fan of jazz so I don't to whiff, so to speak

Any help is appreciated

Terra Blues is probably the best. The Blue Note is classic. Too bad you don't like jazz, you should give 55 Bar a try. They sometimes have blues. That's the problem with living here. I could give you 10+ more to try that you'd like. It's too much sometimes. You can't see it all. Same with steak. Too many damn options. St. Anslem in Brooklyn is my favorite though.

Can you go to Peter Lugers Steakhouse and tell me how good it is.  I will live my experience through you.

My brother moved to Brookyln, so I went to stay with him a few days. Since I didn't have to pay for any lodging i took him and his wife out to Peter Lugers. 

My brother and I got the Porterhouse for two. Sister in law got the salmon. The plate is so hot that if you want to cook your steak more(not that you would) you can cook the steak on the rim. They have a spoon to baste the steak pieces in all the juices/butter. Best steak I've ever had, you won't be disappointed. 

We also got their potatoes and creamed spinach as sides. Not sure why the spinach is so renowned it didn't really taste that unique. Still good if you like creamed spinach. 

My brother and I also got a single piece of bacon and the onions/tomatoes for an appetizer. Fresh fresh tomatoes were just delicious. Great with the bacon, I could have ate that nonstop for dinner. The bacon is super thick. 

The rolls weren't warm I was slightly disappointed. For some reason every restaurant we went to didn't have warm bread. Maybe it's a NYC thing. Also the Peter Luger's sauce is pretty much cocktail sauce but with more "stank". 

We also got the apple strudel with a gigantic bowl of schlag(whipped cream). 

I think my sister in law ordered the cheapest bottle of wine but it was still 60 bucks lol. Overall I think our bill was around 360 dollars, not totally sure. Was worth every penny. I was so satisfied. 

I'd love to go back but I'll probably need to take them somewhere else the next time we go. 

One thing that's a little weird is every person that works there has gotta be a man over 50 years old. It's also cash or debit only.

Besides Keens, I think I went to Gallaghers also.  Sort of a tourist trap it seemed.

Brick oven pizza is also something I might go for.  Terra Blues seems to only serve whiskey, like hundreds of different ones.  That should be an adventure

      Tony Pauline: Panthers’ Biggest Roster Needs

      By NAS · Posted

      BPA in draft all the way. Address your biggest needs in free agency.

      Exactly.  You let him play out next season and continue to develop Thorton.  Jackson’s earned his next contract, but his age and the risk of tying up such a large portion of the payroll at one position leads me to believe that we’ll let him walk. In all likelihood, we’ll draft another CB, or two, and bring in some journeymen to fill the roster void, between now and the start of the 2027 season.  That’ll create more balance financially across the roster enabling us to invest in other areas.

      I’m just not impressed with these hires/openings

      By strato · Posted

      As far as the NFCS … I think this division will be hotly contested the next couple of years.   I am tending to pay more respect to both Atlanta and the Saints n terms of how strong they will be moving forward, than not.    I am mixed on Ryan but think they have a decent roster to start with. I don’t think he blundered hiring Stefanski. And that offense can be dangerous with a QB. Plus, defense is arrow up. No 1st round pick, WB issues will dull their effectiveness. Question is, to what degree?   I think Moore is going to be a good HC and can overcome tape that people have on Shough. They need a lot but they were playing with people. Just the way you want to see all the way to the end.    Not sure about Tampa they have Mayfield but I don’t think they can maintain their success and Bowles is not going to last much longer. They have to go through all that. Gonna be tough once it starts. Might already have started.    For us I feel pretty good about Morgan. But less so about our offense, we have some short term RB and OL issues and those things are critical given what we are working with at QB.  Overall, mixed. Like a lot of what I see but some major question marks remain.
