MyDiningSpot.Com is your premiere source for local dining and entertainment venues. Our focus is on unique restaurants, bars and clubs which are not widely recognized establishments and often define the local character and palate of the city or region. The listed restaurants are not the typical tourist spots. We also include places most frequented and beloved by the local population.
We also give our members the chance to try out some of these venues through our periodic giveaways of gift certificates and dining specials at several of our member restaurants.

Luke's Screening Room
The Taking of Pelham 123
Rating: 3 out of 10
Remake, rehash, reboot; call it what you want, it all boils down to the same thing, this story has been seen before. Now that doesn’t imply automatic boredom or even a certain level of quality, all it means right off the bat is the audience will be coming in with a particular expectation set by the previous version of the story. How big the expectation is will depend on how popular the original film was and how recently it was in the theaters. Most second chances at the silver screen come more than ten years after the original version, but that gap seems to be closing in the last decade. Maybe it’s a statement about our national attention deficit disorder or it could be a comment on there being a complete lack of new and original ideas.

Magic Berries
My daughters were watching a movie the other day and there were magic berries all around. Some made them sing high, some made them sing low, some made them dance, etc. But there was one magic berry that was extra special because if eaten, it would reveal their true selves. And of course, as any good children's movie goes, when the good fairy ate it, she got even more beautiful and when the evil fairy ate it, she turned into a horrible ugly toad.
