So on Saturday we went to Hog's Breath Cafe at Glenelg for lunch with Alen and Jess and Paul and Tara. Over for a weekend visit, Paul had picked the venue, which led Alen to remark "What is this, the 1990's?". As it turns out, at Hog's Breath, it always is.
We quicky noticed that their playlist was almost entirely comprised of hits from that decade - Jeremy, November Rain, Loser, You Outta Know, Plush - it was like someone found one of my mixtapes from 1995. The lone exception was Kanye West's "Gold Digger" - I have no idea how that one made the cut. Everything else was alternative rock from the last millenium.
I presume it was intentional, and it was actually kind of cool - it was kind of like a themed 50's nostalgia diner, but updated for the 90's. Especially for a catchup lunch between three guys who became friends in the 90s, it brought back all kinds of memories of shared experiences.
After lunch we went across the road for hot chocolate at Bracegirdles. It was pretty amazing stuff, I'm definitely a convert.
