by She-Ra .. on Came here for dinner at a friend's insistence. It was odd - huge cavernous space that looks somewhat like a 1960s James Bond asian archenemy would hang out in - if said archenemy really liked neon. There were barely any tables, tons of staff, virtually no customers, yet it was impossible to be served. The ginger fries were just normal fries. Everything else we ate was subpar to average. The pizza is good, but honestly, what's not good after being doused in curry?
by Louis Burgraff on Not usually my type of fare, but everything was delicious. You have to start with the sausage "cheesecake" app. Its a yummy mix of sausage and eggs that is shaped to look like a slice of cheesecake - don't let the name fool you. Also, great atmosphere and super bar.
by Jaime Rainbow on I was 20 years old in Sydney Australia, incredibly drunk sitting on the lawn of a Cricket field with my buddy Gavin looking at the stars and talking about life when he turns to me and tells me he's gay. It was the first time anyone ever came out to me, and I won't lie... I was a little nervous... two guys sitting under the stars, and he comes out to me. Not having any experience like this, and not knowing how to react, I calmly say to him "Hey... why are you telling me this right now man?" And he says, "Don't worry mate, you're not my type, I've just never told anyone before, and after getting to know you for the last six months you're first person I've ever met that I can trust to not be a jerk about it". I couldn't have told you what my response would have been ten seconds before he told me... it had just never come up... but my honest response was that I was honored. Guy trusted me with information, that at the time, could have gotten his ass kicked. We sat there and talked about his secret life and my education in tolerance began. What the hell do I care who you sleep with? It's weird that people get so mad or freaked out about the gay community. To anyone out there that still has tolerance issues, Shakespeare and I have this to say to you... "The lady doth protest too much, methinks... it's 2009 get over it." Hamlet Act 3, scene 2 That all said... Blake's is the gayest bar I've ever been in! Jeez-us Atlanta! When you go gay, you go GAY! The drag show was clearly a time honored tradition and the drinks were so strong I'm still drunk this morning, but seriously... this place needs to be about an acre larger and have a dance floor and stage! Just admit it Blake's... you need to expand the venue. Atlanta demands it! ... now excuse me... I'm going back to bed. Ow.
