My wife scored us some passes to this afternoon’s Ray LaMontagne concert at World Cafe Live in University City (West Philadelphia). The concert was a freebie hosted by WXPN‘s Free at Noon concert series. In case you’re not familiar with him, Ray LaMontagne is a singer/songwriter and has […]
Düsseldorf-Style Brown Ale? Talk about a very specific type of beer. This is probably the first time that I’ve had this style of beer, and I’m finding the Southampton Publick House Altbier to be very smooth and easy drinking. The color is a crystal clear medium brown, the […]

This past March, my wife and I decided to spend a weekend in Manhattan for our 11th wedding anniversary. Since Mrs. G-LO is an incredibly detail oriented vacation planner, she inundated me with dining and hotel choices for almost three months. We only had two full days in […]
