Band: Punk Rock Heavy Metal Karaoke

Food Minca
Drink Ace Bar
Miscellaneous Le Gamin Café

The original punk rock heavy metal karaoke band makes their residency at Club Midway every Tuesday night in February, breaking out all your favorite rock anthems for you to sing on. Close by is the ramen noodle bar called Minca. After recently trying this place, I’d highly recommend it. The ramen noodles are made fresh and way better than those you’d buy and boil. What makes the soups here great is the broth. Take the Minca Ramen, a mild broth with pork, chicken and dried seafood ($8.50), it has impeccable flavor that hits the spot. Plus it’s way less expensive than other ramen specialty restaurants and just as good. Right across the street from Minca is the Ace Bar. Sort of divey, it’s also where you’ll find people playing skeeball and shooting pool, while drinking some decent beers on tap. For dessert and coffee, Le Gamin Café is the place for crepes.
