imo Fuddruckers is pretty lame....so while a chain would have been nice to draw in the "suburban folk", I'm fine without Fuddruckers

This from the guy who had to argue that Winn-Dixie was a downtown dining out option...

Fuddruckers would certainly have been better than the empty space.

Funny I walked by "The Venue Formerly Known as Twisted Martini" and couldn't really tell that any work has been going on, from the looks from the outside anyway. Additionally, I don't know too many Irish Pubs with that type of architectural style. That will be something new I guess. Maybe it'll be a South Florida themed Irish Pub...

Jameson Mojitos, Potato Coladas, Guys in Micro-Kilts, Sheep-Stomach Sushi  Instead of tanned and blonde bartenders we'll get pale and gingered bartenders.  I say run with it.  ;D

Lol, well come on Tufsu, any time we all have the chance to rattle each others' cages I think we avail ourselves of the opportunity. Just for entertainment value if nothing else. Getting harder and harder to find a good witty debate in this city, and regardless of whether we agree or not, I certainly do appreciate your intellect.

Well here it is the New Year and no Irish pub, American Bar or anything. Anybody have any updated information on the venue?

they were doing some work prior to New Years....but I think that may have been just clearing out liquor to sell in the courtyard over the weekend.
