    the museum pictures made me remember when we went to see PJ20 at the Franklin Institute, which is a science museum. For a few dollars extra you could walk around the museum and get drinks. One of the exhibits is a huge heart that you can walk through:

    i went to a wedding at a zoo once...there was a cocktail hour in the shark house (very freaking 8-) ) and dinner was in a restaurant that had an outdoor deck and from there you could hear all the wild animals around the zoo making noises. The trolley would pick you up and drive you back to the parking lot for your car too.

    It was very cool and kinda naughty feeling to be in a zoo at midnight, seperated from the reception and surronded by wild animals....

    Makes much more sense...

    A Comedy Burlesque Circus Dinner Theater...or as they describe it:
    Teatro ZinZanni's main event is part circus, part dinner theatre, and always magical. Described as "the Kit Kat Klub on acid" and "the hottest ticket in town" Teatro ZinZanni is a night out unlike any other.

    3½ hour five course dinner-tickets are $131-163/person
    ...and yes, it really is under a 'big top'
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Dick's Last Resort. I think they have them multiple places, but I've been to the one in Dallas. Like the name implies, all the waiters act like dicks. They talk trash, throw your napkins at you, if you ask for a refill tell you to get it yourself, and all kinds of stuff.

    The last time I was there I went to the bathroom and came back to the table where the waiter asked me if I washed my hands. I said yes, and he asked me what color the soap was. I couldn't remember so he announced to the entire restaurant that I went to the bathroom and came back to the table without washing my hands.

    there's nothing weird about it except the fact that it used to be a jail

    Well that's :|

    Here's a weird place to eat: In the middle of the trauma unit. We used to do it all the time. I think it's pretty much forbidden now. Frigging regulations.

    So these "hidden" places are weird to me but were the rage in NYC a few years ago and seem to be making a comeback. I tend to go only if a friend wants to check them out, but these two were actually great!

    PDT (Please Don't Tell): Small bar adjacent to Crif Dogs (yummy!!!). To enter, you need to walk into Crif Dogs, go into the "phone booth" and pick up the phone. You tell the person on the line how many people, and they will let you in if they have room. If you get in, drinks are actually really good and you can order hot dogs from Crif Dogs (YUMMY!!). Bartenders really friendly. No attitude, it's just tiny and you feel weird standing in the phone booth...

    Beauty & Essex: Restaurant "hidden" behind a pawn shop storefront. You walk into the pawn shop, look lost and the big bouncer dude will open the door for you and say "enjoy". Food's actually pretty good. A bit of a scene but if you can get past that, not a bad place to spend a Friday night. Again, no attitude. The bouncer doesn't even try to fake not knowing why you are there like some of these other hidden places.

    Sorry for contributing to the derailment before, I will try to behave :oops: :oops:

    There's an Italian Restaurant in Dallas called Campisi's that I really like. There is nothing weird about it per se, but Jack Ruby used to be a regular there back in the day and ate there the night before he killed Oswald, so it always seems so strange eating there. There have been several more built in the area, but the original one on Mockingbird Ln. (called Campisi's Egyptian Lounge) is the one Ruby used to go to. The original owner (Joseph Campisi, his descendants still own the chain) was tied to organized crime, and a lot of stuff supposedly went down there.

    I went to the one in Vegas...Excalibur I believe. It is comical. The more the waitress insulted us the more I wanted to tip her!! :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
