Astorian Weekend Edition - May 27, 2005

Hello About readers, I'm Joey in Astoria. I'm here to tell you about all the cool stuff there is to do in Astoria and LIC, and in effect, raise the rent for all of us.

Friday night, stop into Broadway Wines & Spirits for free booze -– to taste. Pick up a couple bottles to go and some pizza at Grand Avenue, and head home with your buddies.

Saturday, mosey over to ARROW park. Check on my garden would 'ya? Have the ball-playing little ones inspired you? Well then go make your own Tinkertoys at Socrates Sculpture Garden! Genius. Saturday night, bring your new toys to Fatty's Cafe. This house of cool will make your belly happy. Then shoot some stick at McLaughlin's, QNS style. Mmmmm...frothy Guinness.

On Sunday, show your love for the beer garden at the Czech and Slovak Festival. Yes, there will be food, and beer. See you next week!
