Imbibing on the cheap at the 400 Bar? WTF? Must be when there's no band playing or something.

When was this written? Restaurant Miami is closed, and Sgt. Preston's has been Preston's Urban Pub since at least March.

Yeah, honestly. The 400 Bar is the opposite of imbibing on the cheap. It's almost always held up as the example of overpriced, since you have all the ambiance of being in a tin shed and none of the appeal of a dive bar's prices.

Free wings at Liquor Lyle's? When and where and how have I missed that? Liquor Lyle's is my usual hangout and my friends and I order the wings every time that we go and we've never, ever gotten them for free.

I want to love METRO because there are some really great people over there, but I've literally lost count of the number of outdated-type mistakes like these that they consistently print.
