For those who have been to the Boulevard Grill, would you say that it's pretty much the same menu and food and just has a new name or has it stepped away from paddy's?

I went in early April after they switched. It was the same menu with terrible service. My friend claims to have gotten food poisoning from the fish and chips.

The Boulevard Grill in KC has free beer on Wednesdays from 5-6:30. About only reason to go in there.

I shouldn't have to wait in line for 5 minutes for 44 ounces of sugar water, that's what I always say.

Make sure to tip if you're at the east side location

Yep, Manhattan was much better when there were like 15-20 restaurants total. Way better.

Do you even know how long it takes to get a happy hour drink at Sonic during the school year? AGES! That's how long. Two Sonics is not enough. They need to put at least one on campus, maybe even two. That's what I always say.

3rd St. was so much more authentic when it was Steel & Pipe, railroad tracks, and Cheers!. Really connected the Bob's Diner/Times Square end to the dilapidated homes and abandoned train station end and tied things together.

The transformation of that whole stretch is truly astonishing. A Bill Snyderesque turnaround.

It's just getting short listed right now. Tenatively 3 years out from opening so I don't think there is a specific spot or anything picked out. Will happen though (pending economic disastor in mhk area, lol yeah right)

lincoln folk were pumped about getting a whole foods. Haven't ran into anyone who has been there yet tho...

Would get excited about Whole Foods because of eliteness. Would get super excited about Trader Joe's because of potlucks.

'teve d've, what's the Trader Joe's prognosis for MHK?

It is. Near airport. 5 free pale ales and then two rye on rye is not a good weeknight combo.

Anyone tried Chen's yet? If you haven't tried it yet, don't. Barf City. Seriously ate two bites and threw my whole order away.

so sad that chinese chef, a somewhat unique chinese establishment, was turned into that run of the mill garbage dispenser
