Saturday night was a good time. First, some friends and I went to a going away party for a guy named Leo. I didn't know him but he seems like a great guy who will be missed. Anyway, the party was at a really strange new house that wasn't finished but people were living there... I think. I can't really explain how odd the house was, you just have to trust me. Anyway, it was a great party with a hundred pounds of crawfish; red, spicy, delicious crawfish.
After the party we decided to go to a new Biloxi establishment called The Fillin' Station. It is an old gas station in downtown Biloxi that has been turned into a restaurant and bar. It is awesome. The bars resides in what used to be the garage; the garage doors lift up to the ceiling and the bar is open to the outdoor patio that fronts the street and is where the gas pumps once were. Lacquered into the bar top are a bunch of the old checks that were written to and from the gas station. I normally don't like that type of thing but they are great little momentos of the past. Most importantly, they've got good beers on tap, including Lazy Magnolia (a local Mississippi brewing co.), good liquior, good food (I highly suggest the raw oysters: dozen for $6 and oh so good or a sandwich called The Recession - fried balogna, you know that's right) and bar tenders that call you "Honey" or "Sweety". You gotta love that.
