Git Aht! – Things To Do This Weekend

(Things to do while figuring out what the hell happened to the running game… I heard the plane back from Jacksonville still hasn’t landed because someone painted a goal line across the runway.*) (* Recycled Bubby Brister joke.) Friday, September 22 Martini Party, 5:00 p.m., Prive Ultralounge, 1650 Smallman Street, The Strip “Drinking For A Cause” makes a strong comeback this week at Prive Ultralounge. For some reason, “Ultra” and “Lounge” don’t seem to go together in my mind, but ok, I understand how you need to market to the young people today. It’s not like when I was a… Read the rest

Git Aht! – Things To Do This Weekend

(Things to do while deciding whether to get that ink done…) Friday, September 15 Oktoberfest, 5:00 p.m. and all weekend, Penn Brewery If someone comes up to you and tries to make a joke along the lines of “This is the wurst thing you can do this weekend”, you have my permission to dope-slap them upside the head. Don’t worry about the consequences, no jury of like-minded citizens would ever convict you. As a matter of fact, they’d probably take an opportunity to dope-slap them themselves. All that aside, the Penn Is Mightier, and this event is a great time… Read the rest

Git Aht! – Things To Do This Weekend

(Things to do while figuring out how the hell we only ended up in 8th place…) Friday, August 25 Wine Tasting, 5:30 p.m., The Warhol, North Shore Side 12 bucks gets you samples of four wines, some food provided by Big Burrito and admission to the museum, ’cause there ain’t nothin’ more fun that gettin’ toasted and hanging out in the balloon room, right? “Dude! There are so many of me right now! I’m floating! I’m floating!” Bonus points if you show up dressed like Nico. Exposure: Pittsburgh, 7:00 p.m. Club Havana, Shadyside The monthly photography show put together by… Read the rest

Missed “Bombay Dreams,� why not sample Pittsburgh’s Indian food.

Upset that you missed the limited showing of the Civic Light Opera’s production of “Bombay Dreams,â€Â? then why not experience some of Pittsburgh’s surprisingly good Indian food instead. Within Shadyside and its environs, there are a number of Indian restaurants that can provide for a gustatory delight. Three restaurants that are of notable mention are Indica, Star of India, and Indian Garden. If you have never had Indian, I highly recommend Chicken Makhni or the spicier Chicken Vindaloo. Still missing the campy Bollywood flair of “Bombay Dreams,â€Â? do not worry. A number of the restaurants have takeout so that you… Read the rest

Git Aht: Things To Do This Weekend

(Things to do while figuring out if it’s the heat or the humidity or the fact that you still won’t take off your “Drink Like A Champion Today” sweatshirt…) Friday, July 21 Wine & Dine In The Park, 5:00 p.m., Robin ill Park, Moon Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow you go out and do the same thing all over again, but probably not with as much quiet dignity and grace that a wine-tasting usually provides. PA wineries put out their best, local restaurants provide the food, and the singing chef Olga Watkins performs with her quartet. This is… Read the rest
