Fill your belly, ears at local cafe

About a month ago, I interviewed gr6 during the Tramontane Cafe's first acoustic lunch hour. The place was packed. There was something good about filling your belly and ears. Others seemed to agree. The cafe was filled with listeners and eaters - all giving genuine attention to the musicians.

So, why do you care? Because it's happening again from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. Friday, Dec. 11, and I think you'll love it.

I realize we all have the best intentions over the weekends and on weeknights to get out there and support our local music scene, but sometimes a bottle of wine, DVD and the couch call louder.

So here's the perfect way to get your dose of local music. And I can't imagine a better way to go back to the office - filled with good music and good food.

And for those of you who aren't familiar with The Tramontane Cafe (The Tram, for short), it's one of my favorite places in the area. Not only is the food delicious, fresh and caters to every eating need (specifically vegetarians/vegans, like me), the atmosphere is quirky, yet cozy and the staff is seriously delightful, warm and welcoming. You really can't go wrong here.
