(TAG 5 is a top five list compiled by secret ballot, submitted by the four horsemen of TAG. An extremely complicated equation is used to calculate the polls. Mostly they are related to SGF, sometimes they are not. A new TAG 5 is released every Monday.)
There are two bar crowds – after work and after hours. This week we voted on which pubs/restaurants had the best happy hours. Of course, this mostly comes down to food and drink specials. The delicious (and cheap) burgers blended from cuts of steak at Flame’s Red Room took the TAGsgf.com vote. The 2-for-1 drinks are a nice supplement, as well. Schultz & Dooley’s has locations in Chesterfield Village and on South National – each has a busy happy hour clientele. The karaoke haven hauled in a couple of first-place votes. In third is Adobe with cheap draft beer (Miller Lite’s the special) and a free appetizer buffet. Following our top three is a bit of a snag. Five restaurants tied for fourth (and fifth).
Four votes (as of 4/15/10)
Total points, first-place votes in parenthesis
1. Red Room at Flame – 13 (2)
2. Schultz & Dooley’s – 10 (2)
