We didn't establish a No. 1 overall seed (as far as you know), but George's is certainly the powerhouse of this tournament.
The Cameron Park Zoo Region includes a couple of enticing first-round matchups, one because of its contrast of styles and the other because of similarities.
The WacoFork Bracket Challenge bracket is set. Talks with ESPN to have it unveiled in a LeBron-James-style primetime special fell through, so we're releasing them right here for your Monday reading pleasure.
We're simultaneously releasing all four brackets in individual blog posts. Check out the matchups and be prepared to start voting March 4. If you have a vested interested in one of the restaurants, now is the time to start mobilizing support.
The weekend is upon us. And there's no Valentine's silliness or holidays of any kind, that I'm aware of, March Madness doesn't fire up for another month and we're a long way from graduation and summer fun.
Nope, it's just an ordinary weekend. But the weather forecast looks fantastic, so it's a good weekend to relax and enjoy life with the family and/or your buds. Just in case you need it, here are some things to talk about while you're chilling like villains.
Thank you to everyone who nominated your favorite Waco restaurants for the 2014 WacoFork Bracket Challenge! We got a lot of great nominations from many of you, and we have successfully filled 25 spots in the 32-restaurant bracket. We still need your help, though. We have a 10-way tie for the final 7 spots, and we wanted to let you choose which restaurants belonged in the top 32. Please take a moment to choose 7 restaurants in our poll to help us determine which restaurants will make it into the 2014 WacoFork Bracket Challenge.
Good live music in Waco can seem hard to find in a city that often feels like a road bump between the thriving music industry of Austin and the big names and big shows in Dallas.
But Wes Butler, event coordinator at Common Grounds, is convinced that Waco is something special on its own.
There will likely be two new restaurants opening up by the middle of summer across the street from Vitek's at the new 16th & Speight shopping center.
I've heard rumblings of what they might be, but nothing is confirmed yet.
We want to have some fun in March, but we need your help.
We're hoping to crown the champion of Waco restaurants with a 32-restaurant bracket challenge. When the time comes, we need you to vote for your favorite restaurants in the bracket. But for now, we need restaurant nominations from you.
Hello, my name is Cory, and I am a serial procrastinator. That feels good to get off my chest.
I've been a procrastinator most of my life. I live by the motto "Why do today what you can put off until tomorrow?" The reason I procrastinate is that most of the time I can get away with it. The reality is, most things can wait until tomorrow... or the next day... or maybe even next week.
But this is not true with Valentine's Day, which I learned a long time ago. Procrastination means forgetting to make a dinner reservation until the day of only to find out that every place in town that takes reservations is already booked. And let's face it. Valentine's Day is a day when you want to go to a place that takes reservations. McDonald's isn't going to cut it. This is a cautionary tale to those of you who, like me, put everything off until the last minute.
The recent revelation that one Denny's has closed and another opened didn't register too high on our Waco-restaurant Richter scale.
I am wondering if the La Quinta between Common Grounds and Clay Pot will have to change it's name since it's no longer "By a Denny's."
We’ve all done it.
At one point or another, we have all asked our waiters and waitresses a dumb question, or we have said something so entirely inconsiderate that we go home racking our brains as to why we though that would have been appropriate in the first place. I too am guilty of this restaurant sin, even after having worked in restaurants for more than 10 years. Thus, in the name of education, I have compiled a list of things you should never say to your server, and the things you should say or do instead.
