Yesterday I went to Nadine's Gin Joint because it was my friend's birthday celebration and that's where she picked. It's in Soulard on 12th Street. You have to make a U-turn off of Gravois to get to it. It's better to get there via Russell. She picked this place because the website said they have Karaoke. They don't have Karaoke. Or dessert. The food was good. One of their specials was a steak with a twice baked potato that was deep fried on the bottom. I didn't get it but I heard it was good. It was also only $10 which is a good price.
I ordered wings and french fries. Their french fries were homemade and were great. There was no added seasoning salt. The wings were good. Much better than Blueberry Hill. But they weren't great. The hot sauce was kind of watery. There were only 9 of them in one order that cost $6.75. I don't know how much the wings were. My total with tax was $11.25. And I ordered an unsweet tea. They only have unsweet tea. A plus.
Overall the place was AAIIGHT. The patio was big but it was crappy. The clientele was awful. Just a bunch of backwards caps, Nike's, cargo shorts, and Polo's with the collar popped. Everyone was tripping on this ramp going up the patio. One lady actually fell and her husband had to pick her up. One of the cement blocks came off and someone just put it back on. It should have been removed for the rest of the night. Oh well. I'll probably never go there again. The food was good though.
Oh yeah, and this is what I wore there. I like to blend into the crowd. Dressing myself is becoming a challenge. Sam stopped me from wearing bike shorts. I think bike shorts is acceptable for wearing in public.
I've had this dress since 10th grade. I bought it at the vintage store in Chapel Hill, NC. It was originally a romper but I turned it into a dress. I wish it was still a romper. But if it was then I couldn't wear it pregnant. I miss rompers. I bought two good ones last summer and I can't wear them till after July. Breastfeeding will be difficult in them.
