The Health Nut

May 5, 2009

Things are going incredibly well with this cleanse—who knew I’d enjoy going vegan so much? Well, until I look at pictures of Sunday’s Pig Out at Coffee Bar. Anyway, life without my morning espresso is actually easy when I haven’t been up late carrying on, eating…

The Chatterbox

April 28, 2009

It just goes to show that sometimes wicked talent and THAT Burger just aren’t enough to keep a restaurant afloat during rough economic times. Was sorry to hear from executive chef Jonnatan Leiva that ~JACK FALSTAFF~ is closing on Saturday May 9th. Leiva said they had a great run…
