TGI Friday's has an ad campaign that pokes fun at frou-frou dining. I'm not sure which is a bigger blight on the restaurant landscape, the chain or the small portion, but it's nice to see one take a shot at the other.

YAPL: A vacant building on the corner of Byron Street & Lincoln Avenue piqued my attention as I biked by last week. I stopped, peeked inside, and was struck by the beautiful interior. I'm not sure what used to take up this building, but whoever it was sure left behind a nifty interior design.
Pros: Corner building; classy interior; classic exterior (I wonder who E. Rosenbaum was); near my house; large space.
Cons: Iffy location: besides Martyr's, CB2 and the American Theatre Company, there's little more than a collection of antique stores on the block; Very, very large space: the For Rent sign boast an available space of 7,000 to 17,000 sq. ft. What could we possibly do with that much space?
