An Evening at The One Eyed Jacks Barcade
Hey all! This evening, we're having dinner at One Eyed Jack's, a Barcade in Macomb County, MI, situated in the northern suburbs of Metro Detroit. The venue is renowned for its arcade and pinball machines, corn hole tournaments, golf simulators, and occasionally disc golf putting tournaments. Our main objective was to try the food. Once we sat down, we noticed a party atmosphere with loud music and frequent announcements. It didn't bother us much, but it's something to conside
Feelin The Rhythm At Fishbones
Hey all! This evening, we're dining at Fishbones, a restaurant situated on the Nautical Mile in St. Clair Shores, MI, close to Lake St. Clair. The restaurant boasts a New Orleans and Cajun theme, designed like a factory with New Orleans touches. A large fish clock provides the backdrop for the spacious central bar. We chose to sit in one of the dining sections next to the main bar area. After being seated, our server greeted us and took our drink orders. We opted for water as
Great Mexican Cuisine At Mr. Miguels
Hey all! Today, while in town, we are visiting Mr. Miguel's Cantina, a relatively new Mexican chain that has begun appearing around the Metro Detroit area, upriver. This branch is located in a mall in Clinton Township called Partridge Creek. Upon being seated, we noticed some unique decor throughout the restaurant. Typically, Mexican food establishments display the usual Mexican beer banners and advertisements, but here they were creative, featuring a colorful milk carton-lik

Audubon Aquarium and Insectarium
Hello all! This is Grant from Coast N Tiki, here to talk to you all about our experience in New Orleans' Audubon Aquarium and Insectarium! This attraction, compared to other aquariums, was different in the sense that it already came bundled with the insectarium showcase as well, so let's dive in! The aquarium is located on the Mississippi River near the French Quarter. According to their website at https://audubonnatureinstitute.org/aquarium, it is voted as one of the most ex

A Day of Illusions at The Museum Of Illusions
Hey all! Today, we explored the Museum of Illusions in Detroit, MI, situated just off Woodward Avenue in Downtown Detroit. While in the city, we came across numerous positive reviews about this venue on social media. Upon entering, visitors receive a stamp, and there are secure lockers available for storing personal belongings. As soon as you enter the first room, you're immersed in a realm of diverse optical illusions. The museum also provides marked spots to guide you to th
Everything is Dead... I Think? at the Field Natural History Museum
Hey all! Today, we are visiting the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, Illinois. Although we initially intended to start our day at the Shedd Aquarium, we could only get an entry time for 1:00 pm. We've toured several Smithsonian museums in Washington D.C. before, and this museum is just as impressive. We began our historical journey with a taxidermy exhibit in the museum's basement, featuring unique displays from a taxidermy buffalo to a narwhal. We found the first
