Another in the continuing series of "Nice Bars in my Neighborhood" (although I'm thinking of changing it to, bars in my neighborhood). They were able to completely renovate this local establishment..... except for the customers.
They put in new everything (well, almost everything - they left the faded, stained, smoke laden carpet and the pool tables) in an attempt to go upscale.
And a new front facade - hey, the old girl don't look too bad. But look up facade in the dictionary: an artificial or deceptive front. Bingo.
So it's hard for a leopard to change its spots.
One reason for the change might have been that they are attached to a Holiday Inn Express. So tired businessmen and women probably thought, great I can get a nice Caesar Salad and a glass of Merlot.Wrong! You can get hassled by drunks and eat pickled eggs.
But at least they are trying to change.
