Anyone ever able to try Domaine de Miroirs? Have access to some ‘13 and ‘14s that came into town. Pricing is beyond absurd for Jura but they are on my bucket list and I’ve never seen them in the wild…

If you’re going up to Ridge, Unti is a good property to stop by on the way.

Importer/distributor are for me the biggest proxy for quality if I don’t know the producer.

It’s driven mainly by natives leaving due to housing crisis and lack of job opportunities that can afford said housing crisis.- Wine
Who is distributing her stuff in Texas? I almost never even see it in the Bay.- Washington DC
And get charged for crossing all four quadrants, of course!- Washington DC
Georgetown was the epicenter of nightlife during the Bush administration but has long since fallen out of favor as the city gentrified eastward. I was as much of a Glover Park douchebag as one could be back in the day but even I was eventually trying to bang hipster chicks in the basement of Saint Ex.- Washington DC
I just checked and Lauriol Plaza is somehow still in business? Now that is a blast from the past.- People keep moving to Texas, mostly
Prices are for sure sustainable but well-functioning communities? Yeah, with you there.- People keep moving to Texas, mostly
I suppose I misread your post, but I was simply pointing out that VHCOL cities have generic suburbs too, and these burbs are increasingly the only hope for homeownership for families without generational wealth or a liquidity event. Consequently, many choose to move. Hence, the subject of this thread.- People keep moving to Texas, mostly
Eh, not sure about that. Metropolitan areas include suburbs, and while the suburbs in these areas are more on the old small towns-engulfed-by-growth side of the spectrum, they are still for the most part very much suburbs. Since this has turned into a TX vs CA thread: we’ve always felt that if we couldn’t live in San Francisco proper we’d just move back to Texas or New Orleans. With a few exceptions, the S.F. and SJ metro areas are suburban strip mall sprawl, and often with weather nearly as bad as Texas. NIMBYism has driven homeownership away from the middle class and Prop 13 has starved municipalities of funds to support education and infrastructure. I can’t blame folks wanting to raise kids in decent suburbs with public schools for simply opting for an analogue in Circle C or Plano or wherever.- People keep moving to Texas, mostly
What in the actual fuck is this about? Was in Austin last week and wine/cocktails at the hipster spots were easily $17+. Same in Houston.- People keep moving to Texas, mostly
Yes, Bay Area/NYC is highest pay zone. At our company Austin would be a 20% cut, and I’d say that’s standard for FAANGs and other big tech cos.- New Orleans Food and Drink Thread
Which Liuzza’s?- Texas Primaries
- Fentanyl laced Oxy, Valium, and Xanax
Yep, it’s just supply and demand. Crackdown on prescription opioids sent prices up and people to heroin, crackdown on heroin sent prices up and dealers cutting with fentanyl. At this point in the crisis addicts buy it as a standalone product.- Global Entry application
Same. It’s been the greatest indignity I’ve suffered in my life.- Fentanyl laced Oxy, Valium, and Xanax
Sure, but I’m talking about open air drug markets like the Tenderloin or Skid Row; no one goes to these places for drugs without an addiction in the first place. What I’m saying is these are now, and have been for a few years, blatant fentanyl markets, and it is a totally fucked situation with a massive overdose crisis.- Wine
- Fentanyl laced Oxy, Valium, and Xanax
At this point there’s no pretense, people straight up buy fentanyl.- Fentanyl laced Oxy, Valium, and Xanax
The value is it’s cheap and valuable. Take a walk down the skid row of any major city and you’ll see the repeat customers.- New Orleans Food and Drink Thread
Favorite po boy in town, imo.- What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?
I think Odd Duck would for sure get a star. One star is kind of the realm of cool kid chefs not into the austerity of the tasting menu. Two star plus is a different world and those places sort of only exist where Michelin reviews to validate the absurd economics of their existences. - People keep moving to Texas, mostly
