Keep Cat From Shitting In Pot

Freetime - Cherry Plum

A place that is making progress. The Cherry Plum Viale Europa Tower of Greek positively surprised me on Sunday night, thanks to a band playing live music, British pop-rock. Talented young people, excellent service. Cocktails, milkshakes and coffee are very respectable at a low cost. This is a local crop and without ostentation. When all else fails the big screen accompanied by music by Mtv evenings on the covered terrace and heated in winter. Ample parking (important!) And especially little crowd, although I believe that soon it will be appreciated by a larger number of people. People who run out of town when in fact something good in terms of entertainment, can also be found close to us. All in all, the Cherry Plum is the only local "ligth" wide and small snack bar, where I have recently heard live music, or at least see lay evenings. Lately, I have visited the premises in this respect, they leave something to be desired ...

Whats The Strongestsubwoofer To Buy

Freetime - Oktoberfest, negative experience

Freetime This week's column does not want advice but not recommended. Unlikely to happen again that we do not recommend a place here, but I hope equally unlikely that I happen has happened to me Saturday night ...
The Oktoberfest is a place that lies on the border between Herculaneum and Torre to the Greek. I was drawn to its simple atmosphere and "world", from outside, with flags of different countries, printed characters historical and a giant screen on which was projected Italy-Bulgaria, as well as a table, the beers on tap that are my passion. I really can not tell you how to eat, unfortunately, because food is not really got anything. Although very few tables were occupied (it was eight and a half) we sit down (in two, not in a group of 20, attention) and wait for the waiter to bring us the menu. The waiter does not arrive. Even at a quarter to nine. Yet there is a crowd! Yet we were at the center of the room! However, we see a figure moving among the tables and try to justify with the other customers at the slow and distraction with which the service continues. We therefore can have a menu: they tell us that in a moment would come. At nine o'clock we decided to ask us, please, a menu at a nearby table, because nobody had yet produced. The menu was promising, so that your appetite has become seriously warn. At nine-ten a delivery of another young man with little plates of pancakes at a nearby table, take a seat when we were already entering the room (40 minutes earlier). Ask to order, we are told that we would be disappointed. Meanwhile, ordering the other tables. Without the least bit concerned, also ends the first half of the game on the result of zero to zero, about the same as our dinner. At nine and a half back to the waiter who had promised to take ordering, without even considering. Aimed at the table who had brought the pancakes: the call and tells us that he was just coming to us to take the order. Instead, back in the kitchen and do not see him anymore. And I just can not see him more, because after ten minutes we dismounted and puppets barracks and went away. Without anyone noticing our going away angry and hungry, without anyone trying to justify at least a service really does not exist in an empty room. Well, in conclusion, I would strongly advise the Oktoberfest to all those who want to eat, or at least order, during the evening. In return, the chairs were very comfortable.
