Many many years ago for a conference. It was gawd-awful hot, though...so we didn't get out much. I remember the food being incredible...but don't remember any of the names. That was when I cared more about going out partying than hitting fine dining and museums and tours.Any of you schmucks been? Noteworthy restaurants, bars, museums or other entertainment options?

Our daughter lived there for a few years and our favorite place to eat was Vinnie van go gos. Great pizza. Lots of great restaurants though.Any of you schmucks been? Noteworthy restaurants, bars, museums or other entertainment options?
They have nice people and nice parks
The founder of the Girl Scouts was from there, or lived there, or died there
Had a pink house with a good restaurant
Played golf at The Club at Savannah
I swear i think I got heat stroke - which could explain a lot
Little CeasarsIs there a gatti’s pizza there?
SopeJr#2 just moved back to the ATL from Savannah last fall. We were down there twice in 2019, once for the birth of granddaughter #4, and once to see SopeJr#2 while his bride was in the ATL for a wedding.Any of you schmucks been?

Savannah is beastly hot during the summer, which runs pretty much from May through October there. Right now - at 12:49 pm on Tuesday, July 21, 2020 - it's 91 degrees with a heat index of 104 and going up.
Savannah's best feature is its walkability, and the best places to walk are in its many city squares, the most notable of which is Forsyth Park. If you walk from the downtown commercial district to and around Forsyth Park, you'll see a good bit of very old Savannah, plus some green space. If you go there during the summer (see above), walk in the morning . . . .
Restaurants: Bella's for Italian food is spectacularly good. Cotton & Rye is a very good place to eat dinner, as is The Ordinary. Both have good bars too . . . although the best bar to go to, according to MrsSope (who is of Irish descent, after all) is The Alley Cat Lounge. For breakfast, B. Matthews is quite good, and The Collins Quarter has a great reputation (I've never eaten there because the lines were always too long to wait to get in). There are tons of good places to eat in Savannah . . . .
All that's for Savannah proper. There are lots of local areas to think about near Savannah. Tybee Island is one . . . almost all of the food on Tybee has a theme to it, and that is that its best feature is that it's located on Tybee. If I had to eat on Tybee I'd start with the Sundae Cafe.
If you're on Whitmarsh Island, try Papa's Bar-be-cue and Seafood or Wiley's Championship BBQ.
BTW, if you make it to Savannah and have an extra day, head up the coast into South Carolina for a day/half-day trip and take in Beaufort, SC. Pretty little town - Forrest Gump and The Big Chill were filmed in part there.
Perfect, just the kind of help I was looking for! Well, who's the schmuck? I did ask for help on the AOTF! Maybe I'll just go to Evansville instead!

It's a little understated, and there can be a bitter after effect . . . personally, I wouldn't go near it. I'd even decline an invite to a granddaughter's birthday party to avoid that . . . .Try the covid, I hear you can get it at any restaurant, bar or hotel.

absolutely! I have already signed up for the Moderna trial & I hope that I get the call.And for those in the "vaccine is it" camp, are you really that eager to have something injected in your body that's been rushed through testing and trials like this?
I'm going to wait a couple of model years before I buy a Bronco. No way I'm first in line for the vaccine.And for those in the "vaccine is it" camp, are you really that eager to have something injected in your body that's been rushed through testing and trials like this?

Hell yeah he does. It comes from the factory with AC.OJ has his on order.
Take note you other schmucks: this is some grade A dish right here! Thanks Sope... an AOTF slow clap to you!
PS. and I've been to Beaufort SC... agree great little coastal town. SC has a really nice campground near there... Hunting Island State Park I think? Pretty sweet... for about $30/night for a camping spot you can camp on the other side of the dune from the ocean. Probably a multi-million dollar tract of land the state has there that developers are salivating over. New Bern NC and Washington NC are nice towns that are similar to Beaufort. Edisto Island is a nice little slower beach town too... nice state park there also and a very bikeable town. Repeat vacationers like to call it Edislow.
I spent a week in Edisto once. It was one of the most chill, relaxing vacations I've ever had. Highly recommended place if you aren't interested in any night life.
