With it being all rainy and bleh outside today, we decided to go over to the AMC theatre
across the river at Newport on the Levee to see a movie. Intially, we were thinking about
seeing Taken 2. But the reviews didn’t sound that good. And we got the time wrong. So we
decided to see the new James Bond movie, Skyfall instead. That turned out to be a great
choice. What a great movie! But then again, I don’t think there’s been a Bond movie with
Daniel Craig that I haven’t really liked. They are sooo action-packed!



Fun. 🙂

This afternoon’s Bengals game was blacked-out. But we saw on Local’s Twitter that
somehow they managed to get the game on TV. Turns out, they were streaming it live
through the inner tubes. Pretty cool. That’s what I call dedication to your local teams!
While we were watching the game, we got a bite to eat. Genifer got a half house salad…

And a buffalo chicken flatbread…

I got the Local’s burger…

Great stuff! Throw in a few Tangerine Wheat beers, and it was great to be able to actually
WATCH the Bengals knock off Eli Manning and the Giants 31-13! WHO-DEY! 🙂

When we were leaving Tin Roof, we saw this….



Funny stuff. 🙂

This afternoon Genifer and I walked down to The Banks and Tin Roof to have lunch
and watch some of the Michigan versus Northwestern game. And play some Jenga…


Genifer ordered the another one of their quesadillas, this time the California quesadilla…

I ordered Tin Roof’s buffalo chicken tender sammich. It’s becoming one of my favorites…


And Michigan knocked off #24 Northwestern 38-31 in overtime! HAIL! GO BLUE!

But we feel like the real Victors. Great win. Great food. And great company.
What a fun way to watch a ball game! 🙂

Tonight 4EG‘s newest bar, Igby’s on Sixth Street had their friends and family opening.
And we were on the list! We’ve been watching the progress of this place, and it looks
absolutely stunning. Remember our peeks here and here? We were really excited to finally
get to see what this gem actually looked like on the inside. Come on, let’s check it out!

Look at that outdoor patio. Downtown Cincinnati needs more places with awesome patios.

Genifer on the red carpet…





There were a ton of people. We decided to head upstairs to see if it was less congested.




DJ Fuseamanina was dropping beats on the ones and twos…






And the upstairs wasn’t any less crowded…



Back downstairs…


We got a couple Crispin Ciders and made our way towards the patio…


We finished our drinks and headed out. It was just a little bit too crowded and hard to
move for us. But we can’t wait to come back and check this place out next week when
it’s a little bit less crowded. But it’s definitely one of the most gorgeous bars that
I’ve ever been in. Well done, 4EG! Well done. You’ve done it again. 🙂

So we’ve just skipped right over Thanksgiving and moved straight on to Christmas then?

I saw on my Twitter that C’est Cheese was going to be on Fountain Square at lunch today!




I got a Leapfrog and a PhD. I ate half of each sammich. And brought the other halves
home
for Genifer. Both sammiches were delicious. But I think the Leapfrog is our new favorite.
The Leapfrog…

And the PhD…

We love C’est Cheese! 🙂

This evening we meet up with our friends Gretchen and Martin at Local’s Sports Bar.

It was great to catch up with them! And we signed up for Local’s 202 Club….

Being apart of the 202 Club gets you 10% off your bill Monday through Thursday. Plus,
we’ll get emails for special events and promotions available only to 202 Club members.
Membership has it’s privileges. 🙂

The 21c Hotel must be getting closer to opening. All the fencing around it is now gone.




We can’t wait for this place to open. It sounds like it’s going to be pretty awesome. 🙂

‘Morning, moon!
