Hats off to Dugan
Last night found me at a small get-together in honor of Bill. Next Saturday, he and Jen are tying the proverbial knot. Forgoing the usual chicanery of titty bars and bad porn of most bachelor parties, Bill wanted a few of his friends to join him for dinner at Louisiana in Fells Point. It was a small party; just five of us. I'd met most of the other fellas at Bill's last Canton party to break-in the patio or during the joy of moving day to his current home in Catonsville.
The food was decadent in a Creole-fusion fashion. There were plenty of crustaceans encrusted, blackened and served with a variety of creamy accompaniments. The cocktails were good and strong, too. Overall, a pleasant dining experience.
We jumped across Aliceanna Street to Lulu's for another drink and to enjoy some cigars I brought from Fader's. Turns out I knew the bartender from when I used to clock some time at Miss Irene's. It seems Dwight ,and co-incidentally, a couple Bill knows, partnered-up and bought the joint around Halloween.
After about an hour, we had a nightcap up on Robbie's rooftop deck at his new home in Canton with a spectacular view of Mobtown.
