I loved Carmine's, the Bridge Cafe and pre-renovation Paris Cafe.<br /><br />The free shows on Friday nights in the summer are excellent. Very under-publicized. Aside from the few free shows in TSP, you won't find anything like that for free in the EV.Russnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-69487599473767742032014-11-15T09:30:10.539-05:002014-11-15T09:30:10.539-05:00A fish market might be many things, but "fabu...A fish market might be many things, but "fabulous" isn't one of them!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-17505207192165758392014-11-15T09:12:20.623-05:002014-11-15T09:12:20.623-05:00south street used to be an historic site with a gr...south street used to be an historic site with a great one-story pier building, the fabulous fulton fish market, a low-key mall that sold all sorts of items and food at a reasonable price. it had some wonderful restaurants and bars.<br />the first new mall building was a failure and had very little to do with south street. now they're going to turn it into an even bigger mall only this one will be very high-end and south street will be another stage set for tourists. once a place to sit and watch the water and perhaps grab a bite will be another boring glass celebration of money to be spent. it will have nothing to do with what south street was or is.bllue glassnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-80714866423238077742014-11-15T08:28:53.893-05:002014-11-15T08:28:53.893-05:00The future holds people racking up credit card deb...The future holds people racking up credit card debt on liquor and experiences they can't afford.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-31770115540552788692014-11-15T07:12:21.581-05:002014-11-15T07:12:21.581-05:00I went there in August to see the free show with B...I went there in August to see the free show with Black Bananas -- aka Jennifer from the Royal Trux.
