IN, Bang and soforth

Two things have been on my mind lately: the Mineshaft and Chuck's. For those that don't know, the Mineshaft is a small bar in Indy and Chuck's is a restaurant in Terre Heute. For some reason, I'm thinking that the name of the restaurant is actually Charlie's, but everyone calls it Chucks- I don't know, but what I DO know is that they have one of the best burgers around--the Tweety! They give you all sorts of options as far as toppings, which is good for me since I like a lot of messy stuff on my burgers. It's inconvienent that there isn't a good, quick, direct route to the Heute from our house. Ben was there yesterday shopping for an intern at Rose and I almost asked him to bring me home a Tweety. Yum!
I've heard that there's a chinese restaurant called 1st Wok that is BANG!, but I've never been there to know for sure.

As for the Mineshaft, that was a place, pre-Ben, that I used to go to on Thursday nights with friends to take advantage of their weekday beverage specials. It was cozy, had a decent little dance floor adn the bartenders were cool. I think it reminds me of a bar back home that I used to frequent.

I don't know why they're on my mind so much lately, but they are. Maybe a trip to both places is in order. Who's in?

    mineshaft sounds like a gay bar.

    I'm going to go ahead and assume that it is, ona count of bean was there.


    SEVERJED!

    If you go to first wok I recommend:

    general tso's
    hot & sour soup
    singapore noodles


    fuck me, now I'm drooling

    if you go to charlie's or chuck's I recommend the family tradition followed by a chili cheese dog followed by a turkey rueben.

    I recommend that you take a stomach pump along with you.

    hot & sour soup is fucking terrible.

    family tradition is all 4 tweeties (pct, regular, cheese tweety, and tweety junior) right in a row.

    brannin did it in 88 minutes. then me, him, tim brown, and byrd went back to my apt. and drank 2 bottles of vanilla rum and ate a bunch of papa johns.

    That sounds disgusting. I think just one regular Tweety should suffice.
