Most sausages at morants are at least a buck, maybe up to two, so if you count toppings and buns (including pretzel rolls from freeport bakery)the cost is reasonable. <br /><br />You can also get one of their excellent salads, like a big pile of red potato with dill sauce and add a sausage on the side, for I think 1.50. That is a crazy good deal.<br /><br />Vibe, you know, Sac is never, ever, ever gonna be Portland, so of course our Portland-ish places have a strong Sac vibe. But I have accepted that. There are many reasons I live here instead of Portland, and if Sacness isn't part of that then that's kind of sad.<br /><br />The music situation is bad. It was a joy to sit there and drink great beer and listen to awesome jams. I don't understand their philosophy of music. Just some random classic rock or 80s hits really doesn't fit with the sophistication of the rest of it and the dressed-up crowd, etc.<br /><br />There are so many young professionals there! Where were all those people hanging out before LowBrau opened?<br /><br />becklerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09488884204422943486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694733.post-83587325999746653602013-01-24T11:31:07.170-08:002013-01-24T11:31:07.170-08:00How's LoBrau for dinner?

It even made the quantity:quality:dollar-value quotient at Capital Dawg seem like it'd be surely missed, so I dare say it actually tilted the insulting-meter.<br /><br />I'd been hearing a lot about how "Portland-esque" LoBrau is. But if it is really Portland-esque, it's too much Pearl District and not enough Hawthorne or Alberta. I'm sure Mike C's music selections would definitely peel back a lot of that Pearl District vibe, though.DJ Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15192376447889019598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694733.post-39636649391497282772013-01-24T09:47:15.723-08:002013-01-24T09:47:15.723-08:00the epic musical journey and hanging at the DJ tab...the epic musical journey and hanging at the DJ table was so fun that we canceled our later dinner plans and just ate there. <br /><br />unfortunately, after I waited about a half hour to get a glass of Zweigelt wine only to be told it was out, I asked for a "bartenders choice" with bourbon. Guess what a bartender will always make with boubon? A Manhattan. In this case it was served in a giant tumbler twice as big as it should be.<br /><br />At this point I had had one beer and one glass of wine. On track to be feeling good. Instead, my stupid buzzed order means I have a hangover.<br /><br />I think I am over cocktails. I don't know how to integrate them into my evening without going too far. And especially since I wrote two Cocktail Challenge pieces with not a murmur or ripple from a single person. OK, that's not true, CT commented on the first one.becklerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09488884204422943486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694733.post-55214364528554130202013-01-23T22:13:56.513-08:002013-01-23T22:13:56.513-08:00I love the last paragraph.I love the last paragraph.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10254661062222595013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694733.post-55670660083793591232013-01-23T14:00:15.065-08:002013-01-23T14:00:15.065-08:00Oh yeah, you might have seen this through facebook...Oh yeah, you might have seen this through facebook, but there are so many events bombarding all the time that maybe you missed it:<br /><br />DJ Mike C. will lead you on an epic musical journey at LowBrau tonight at 6. There are also bacon week specials.<br /><br />Don't wanna offend anyone, but this would be a great time to go because the music at LowBrau is often rough indeed. becklerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09488884204422943486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7694733.post-89854397396170560402013-01-23T12:49:09.448-08:002013-01-23T12:49:09.448-08:00I enjoyed the18 million dollar Jimjilbang.
