Date
I live in Old Town Seal Beach, so does my guitarist. He pointed out that no one on his street works. I pointed out that he didn't work either. We pointed out that no one on my street works either, my wife and I included.
Middle of the day, middle of the week; every bar stool at Dave's Other Place is occupied and everyone's got a schooner. This is more proof that this is a town where working a regular job is foreign. I love it.
I also love Dave's other place. Some people call it a dive bar. I just moved here from Culver City, you don't know what a dive bar is if you think this place is one. It's just an unpretentious working man's bar in a town where not everybody works.
However, it's even more crowded when those who do have a job for some reason get off work. Everybody here looks like they were born a few minutes a part and pick out their clothes from the real man's wardrobe supply (wherever that is). And there are sandwhiches!
Best of all is the old timey super long shuffle board thingy. My wife loves those things. Oh yeah, and it's a gay bar. Just kidding. hahaha. Don't be afraid. Come on in.
One more thing that let's you know what's going on in here is that it's been there forever and I'm the first one to Yelp it. They care about schooners, not computers.

Think Medieval Times with utensils. I know people in Austin are used to this chain but if you are from California, it's just a miracle. The food is good, the waiters are pro, and the technical specs of this place are not lacking either. Great picture, great sound. I've eaten the Pizza, salad, Mike and Ikes, burger, and loved it all. And they have booze. they have booze.

St Mary's Cathedral
Category: Religious Organizations
Neighborhood: Downtown
Absolutely beautiful Cathedral just up from all the action on 6th Street in Downtown Austin. The masses get full though so get there early to get a seat.
This place is great, cheap, and always open with big rooms that always have a table. What's that button the napkin holder? Oh, it's a buzzer to ring for the waiter. You never get a chance to push it (and it does work) because they are always around.
If you are looking for a super incognito place to get loud or be unnoticed but still have a civilized meal with attentive staff, come here. We call it the place that is open on Christmas, because it is open on Christmas.

Beautiful structure worth seeing even if you are, you know....and really close to the 99 and whatever that freeway the juts off from the 99 to go deep. I find myself here quite a bit. It's so close to Fresno's escape routes that I go to mass and get the h*** out of there and I'm home in 3.5 hours.
No nonsense confessions from 3:30 to 4:15 on Saturdays then a sweet 4:30 Sunday vigil in English which is unusual. I'm serious about the no nonsense confessions. In and out. That's what reconciliation is all about.
And check out the lady that sings on Saturday's. She's like Benjamin Buttons and American Idol all wrapped into one - extremely talented.

I like it. Pizza and home made style pasta. It's simple, checkered table cloth style and perfect. It's tiny though, and obviously decorated by a boy. I'll go there right now.
Attention men. If you have reached a point in your life where you need more than what you can get at the Main Street Barber Shop, something has gone horribly wrong with your life and you should fix it.
This place is exactly what you want it to be. It's perfect. On Main Street, Disneyland Paris they have a barber shop the French built to create the experience of having your hair cut on a real Main St. in the U.S.A. I've actually had my hair cut there by Dapper Michelle (yes, a man) a few times and it's nice but Ernie De Barber is the real deal. We are living in Disneyland.
We are lucky to have an Ernie and a Main Street, etc. right here in Orange County. Have him cut your hair. What? Get off your high horse. In fact, get out of the whole high horse business because it doesn't suit you.

This place is a miracle. Nothing in the world would make you want to get off at the Yermo exit on the way to or from Las Vegas from L.A. unless you were scouting for locations to film Gummo II, which is a good idea so don't steal it from me.
This place is a regular burger stand but it's sitting in a land time forgot. Abandoned, crumbling buildings, occupied homes with chain link fence around their front porch, it's like it was dressed for a David Lynch movie and they are just running with it.
We found it by accident and we thought we were dreaming. To top it off there is a Del Taco sign on it bigger than the Burger Den sign touting the structure as the first Del Taco. Amazing. Make a point of stopping there on your next trip to Prim. Some of the Yermo residents told me they had actually been to Prim.
What to order: A burger, and an ice cream cone. Don't feel sorry for these people. They are happier than you or me.

Not to be confused with the famous brothel in Tijuana with the same name, this place is excellent. Ceviche at 9:15 am after church. It's better than it sounds.

Last time I was here we had a discussion as to whether it is a hole in the wall. I say yes. A giant hole in the wall. 5 stars plus.
