    October 31, 2008

    The Enzian Theater in Maitland has always been a great date place, but they've trumped themselves with the opening of Eden Bar.

  • Fright night delights are aplenty for Halloween

    October 31, 2008

    Last year I made the statement that Halloween was rivaling both St. Patrick's Day and New Year's Eve in the amount of parties being held around town. If this year's list of Halloween parties is any indication, it's definitely kicking my dear St. Paddy's bum.

    October 5, 2007

    I guess by now you've figured out the theme of this week's section. But when it comes to nightlife, it's hard to call out an end-all-be-all best in town. Not because I'm wishy-washy, far from it. It's because the nightlife scene is ever-changing -- clubs go out of business constantly, and bars change events and motifs more than I change . . . well, you know the saying.

  • Find the sports bar that's right for you this NFL season

    August 31, 2007

    If you've been reading this column over the last couple of years, you know I love football. NFL, to be exact, and the New York Jets, if you want to get more specific.
