Last Month's Updates - Bar/Restaurant Updates

Mood: Overwhelmed!!

Wow... so much to update people on. Let's talk about the bar scene first...

1) Went to Billy Bob's in Red Deer a couple weeks back - it was a buddy's birthday and she decided she was bored of Ranchman's and so she decided on Red Deer. Don't ask, it sounded like a good idea at the time... and no I was NOT drunk when I agreed - my friends just told me it was called William Robert's!

PS: the adjoined hotel is officially called the "Capri Centre" BUT if you look at it, all you're see (in terms of a sign) is HOTEL - it's also the tallest building in Red Deer

2) I went to the Conga Room for a friend's birthday on St. Patrick's Day and I had SUCH A BLAST!! It's a higher scale Latino restaurant that has live music until about 10:30 p.m. After that time, the CDs come out and people start to dance. It's such a cozy restaurant, you feel so good there - check it out if you like Latino food (so good!!)

3) Scariest thing ever!!! I went to a pub to watch the hockey game tonight and had a drink with my buddies. On my way home I got pulled over by the check stop. I had to tell them I did have a drink within the last hour and had to give a "breathe sample" (but not take the breathalyzer test... apparently that was a different thing). Have no fear, I blew a big fat ZERO but still..., crazy scary (my legs wouldn't stop shaking for the rest of the drive home). The cop was real nice though, apologized for the inconvenience and gave me the tube as a souvenir. This is the second time I've been stopped by a check stop, but the only time I've been asked to give any kind of a sample.
