We made some Decisions last night and I refuse to regret any of them

Yin Yang ramen from Kyuramen

Purple Skies and Red Haterade cocktails from Andra Hem

As always, going off-book for the @pinnypalsafterdark.bsky.social #MargaritaQuest

T – 0 I don’t start setup until I’ve had breakfast.

Best time to knock out RTM locations on the @pinnypalsafterdark.bsky.social #MargaritaQuest is the morning before #PAXUnplugged starts

Finally made it to Charlie was a sinner last night. Dunno why it took me this long or if it was ever a stop on the @pinnypalsafterdark.bsky.social #MargaritaQuest but it serves vibes for days and the drink menu is full of good stuff.

T – 4 to #PAXUnplugged so you know what that means…

Gotta hit Backbar to condition my body for the @pinnypalsafterdark.bsky.social #MargaritaQuest before I head down to Philly

Had the Coconut Hands and Tom Kha Martini, and shoved an incredible smoked turkey melt from Scott Bros. BBQ into my face

I also got a pair of arrows but they’re just fletching attached to chopsticks so they’re an incredibly silly length for side buns, but good for big bun

J/k I can still wear a hat. Might just be this hat, but that’s okay since it is a favored one

Only downside to this hairstyle is I can’t wear hats, which honestly is a pretty significant one given how much I love a hat

Get down here in case it doesn’t last

Don’t let that papyrish font deter you. Look at this quiche. LOOK AT IT. Now go and get your own from Wild Rye Bakery at the northern corner of Summit because this one’s mine.

Too close to really count for @pinnypalsafterdark.bsky.social #MargaritaQuest but a solid quick bite before 2:30pm

Ballard is always worth the trip, but it is definitely too far to go for @pinnypalsafterdark.bsky.social #MargaritaQuest

Best day to go to Dough Zone for lunch is two days before a PAX

Probably for the best that it’s not officially on the @pinnypalsafterdark.bsky.social #MargaritaQuest because good luck getting a table here during the show

Say hey to Theo tho if you do

Dino’s Tomato Pie in Cap Hill has the internet’s best home page, an excellent happy hour, Negronis on tap, and some bangin’ slices.

It’s not a stop on the @pinnypalsafterdark.bsky.social #MargaritaQuest BUT IT COULD BE

Landed yesterday
Immediately went to Skalka for EGG BOAT

A successful @pinnypalsafterdark.bsky.social #MargaritaQuest should start with laying a good foundation of carbs to soak up
