When I have an evening to myself, I like to sit at the low bar β€” a big round table at the end of the bar where you can drink and dine. It’s a lot more social, and it’s perfectly fine to sit there by yourself and chat up the other losers.

As a protein fiend, I like the prime rib. Some of the best I’ve had in town, though I’m a cheapskate and don’t go to the fancy places much, so my sample size is limited. The side asparagus is worth the extra charge. Load on the creamy horseradish. Beer on the side, because I’m not having any other carbs.
