Lomo Arigato

Hits the streets starting tomorrow

Everything you ever thought you needed to know about Peru you learned from social studies -- for example, there are mountains there, and you don't do well on tests. Adding some culinary steez to that lesson, Lomo Arigato.

Lomo's a just-launched Peruvian-fusion (yep you guessed it) food truck from a Japanese-American man who got the idea after eating Peruvian-inspired ceviche at Nobu, because nothing quite says "affordable food truck" like "turn-your-wallet-upside-down-and-shake sushi." Sustenance is broken down into three different dishes, each optionally doused in a creamy, green homemade jalapeno hot sauce and available with beef, chicken, or tofu: Saltado (onion/tomato/cilantro/french fry/red wine/soy sauce stir fry with a side of white rice), Tallarin Saltado (same as above, with spaghetti instead of fries/rice), and fried rice w/ Peruvian-style veggies called the Chaufa, also the feeling you may experience after too much of that hot sauce. On the drink tip, Lomo has a standard selection of sodas/juice, as well as the imported Peruvian favorite specialty drink Inka Cola, actually a yellow-colored liquid that's described as tasting like either bubblegum or pineapple, but strangely, never the obvious choice: artificial flavor.

Lomo plans on hitting the whole of the city, so follow them on Twitter to see when they're in your hood; they're also soon going to add tempura, tacos, and sausages -- providing yet another lesson you learned in school: it's hard to know when it's about to get sausage-y.

Jim Russell Karting School

At Infineon Raceway; 29265 Arnold Dr; Sonoma; 1.800.733.0345

Remember how awesome Mario Kart was, and how funny Wario's laugh was, and how you used to totally crush the competition as Yoshi, and how hard it was to stay on Rainbow Road, and how you've never known the touch of woman? The last one's on you, but in the meantime, play with the big boys at Jim Russell Karting School.

The little-known little bro of the Jim Russell Racing Driver's School, JRKS is any honest man-child's dream-come-true -- a state of the art, 16-turn, 3/4 mile track-cum-instructional facility exclusively dedicated to pretty damn extreme go-kart racing for drivers of all skill levels, from novice to EXTREME POWER! Whip-wise, you're rockin' the JR Sprint Kart: a little 125cc, 28-horse beast that can corner like an F1 car and does 0-60 in under six seconds (Porsche Boxster fast) and hit 80mph down the straights if you're doing it right, or 80mph down the straights if you're doing it wrong. First-timers start with "Techniques of Karting" (full suit, gloves, and helmet are provided), where lap after lap you'll increase your speed whilst picking up on the fundamentals of kart operation, driving techniques, line, and the benefits of at all costs avoiding upside down question marks.

~~Unfortunately~~Luckily, passing's not allowed 'til the Advanced Karting Course, which you can think of as second base, but that's probably not going to clear anything up.

Select your track day now at JimRussellUSA.com

Thrillist's hooking you up with $75 in FREE driving from Zipcar! They've got everything from hybrids to BMWs to pickups and SUVs -- all available with gas and insurance included for hourly or daily reservations.

Park Ave

3415 N Clark St, btw Roscoe and Newport; Wrigleyville; 773.975.6677

Ditching an original plan to start anew can yield phenomenal results, as evidenced by Mark Wahlberg, who abandoned his Funky Bunch to get even funkier with Reese Witherspoon on a roller coaster. Hitting the comestible reset button, Park Ave.

A new concept grand opening Friday from the owners of Risque Cafe that replaces adjacent sister spot Purgatory Pizza, PA has gone for more of a pub feel with deep purple walls, dark wood tables and a menu that focuses on burgers dressed up in quirky and interesting ways, like your cousin Tony, the street puppeteer. Many of the half-pound (double up if you feel crazy) ground steak burgers take their names from recognizable Chi parks, such as the edgy Wicker Park (American cheese, bacon, fried egg, grilled apple slice), the upscale Lincoln Park (foie gras butter, Jack Daniel's caramelized onions, grilled peach, Gruyere), and the clever HAMilton Park, covered in cheddar, fried pickles, cole slaw, and ham that's smoked, then spends the rest of the day browsing the Net for esoteric mailorder candy. Non-local but nonetheless intriguing combos come in the form of Peanut Park (creamy peanut butter, pickles, raw onion, American), Pulled Park (pulled pork!!, cheddar, BBQ, onion rings, jalapeno), and, in similar topping style, The Jerk, which replaces onion rings with grilled pineapple, and BBQ with jerk sauce, which'll totally stain your shirt, you goddam fat idiot!

Because the stress that comes with eating unusually topped burgers often drives one to drink, they're serving up beer in a non-threatening selection of about 15 bottles and domestic drafts (Brooklyn Brown, 312, Trumer Pilsner), thwarting the Funky Bunch's plan to bring you a show with no intoxication.

Swing by the grand opening after 10 for half price food, and drool over the full scope of intoxicating burger options right here

Thrillist Dallas

Thursday September 3, 2009

Transit Bicycle Co.

3839 McKinney Ave, at Blackburn; West Village; 214.219.2453

After taking over someone else's business, you've got to clear out their outmoded junk and refocus -- otherwise, you'll never get rid of Dan Marino. Taking over with authority, the guys at Transit Bicycle Co.

After buying out West Village Bicycles, the owners of two-doors-down sneaker haven Adikt decided to ruthlessly unload the vast majority of the inventory, and concentrate on stripped-down, fixed-hub, single-speed urban commuter bikes. The new flavors include Dallas exclusives such as UK's Charge and GT's blacked-out 2009 Gutterball, plus concrete jungle-serving lines from Bianchi, Cannondale, Cinelli, Schwinn, and more; meanwhile, forked/not-forked frames include Pake, Surly, and Kazane, and Brooklyn Machine Works' "Gangsta Track", no doubt inspired by OG heptathlete Jackie Joyner-Kerseazy-e. The shop also stocks sweet hardware, like Phil Wood and Velocity wheels/hubs in various anodized colors, or emblazoned with everything from skulls/crossbones to faux woodgrain; their service department can also "urbanize" existing bikes, having recently transformed a derailleur/cable-addled Schwinn Peloton road racer into a superlight city-rider with titanium hubs and carbon fiber fork...so just imagine what they can do with your Huffy Pro Thunder (carbon fiber basket!?).

Transit's already hosting twice-weekly group rides and plans on staging alley cat/scavenger hunt-like races soon; to help the cause, a shop regular's commenced Monday barhopping jaunts from nearby Mockingbird Station -- when people ask if you're okay after crashing, just tell them you're Super Duper.

Web site's being pumped up; in the meantime, follow TBC's Twitter feed

The List

Buckle: Brave Leather Belts
Knocking 20% off just for Thrillist, Canuck beltmakers Brave just dropped a new batch of rockerish vegetable/plant extract-dyed men's leather pants-clasps, including the Ivor, with a vintage weave design silver buckle, the Kessen, featuring a buckle made of four rows of polished pyramid studs, and the Mani, in perforated distressed black leather with a silver-plated nickel buckle with hammered detailing, for those mornings when only your belt can explain exactly what happened last night.
Enter code "thrillist09" at checkout to get your 20% off at BraveLeather.com

Eat Up: My Fridge Food
Conceived by a man who "looks at his freshly stocked fridge....and still ends up eating string cheese because I don't know what do to with the rest", MFF lets you click-select what you've got lying around from a list of foods, spices, and beverages (e.g., mayo, bacon, ramen, ranch packet mix, bourbon, etc), then shoots back a rundown of potential recipes that use specifically that stuff (and suggests more that require 1+ additional ingredients) -- so with a little work, you'll be gorging on Cheez-It-encrusted Cheez-Its in no time.
Get creative with the grub you've got at MyFridgeFood.com

Energy Beef: Perky Jerky
Inspired by a batch of their regular jerky that ended up marinated in energy drink spillage, the dried-meat-loving dudes behind PJ realized there was something to it, and boldly decided to make 100% natural beef jerky spiked with guarana, which contains twice as much caffeine as coffee, meaning you can say goodbye to your morning Skinny Soy Macchiato served in a flank steak.
Snag some seriously tasty amped up beef at PerkyJerky.com

Golf Gadgetry: DivPro
This handy 6-in-1, pocket-sized golf tool will immediately become a must-have on the links, considering it can be used as a ball marker, divot tool, club head cleaner, grip saver, stab-able-into-the-turf cigar holder, and most importantly, as a shotgun opener for your brews, easing the blow of that draconian "No Beer Helmets" club rule.
Get your own at NoJoke.com

Guess: Wikipedia vs. Predator
Just vote on who would win: the menacingly violent extraterrestrial people-hunter, or randomly generated Wikipedia entries (i.e., Connecticut's Route 22, Nepalese handicrafts, a plumber, Daddy Yankee's reggaeton hit "Gasolina"), then take a gander at the all-time count, although the Predator's dominating as you'd expect -- about 2-to-1 -- meaning "fully accredited monkey chefs trained in ninja arts" must be coming up an awful lot.

Southern Comfort Presents: underCOVER

Live concert? Text "BOSTON" to 68405

There's nothing cooler than seeing a band honor its influences -- the seminal acts that inform everything from its music, to its message, to the exhilarating tightness of its members' pants.

Actually, one thing is cooler: getting to see it all just by asking for an invite. Do just that, with Southern Comfort Presents: underCOVER, coming to Boston September 17th.

Brought to you by the spirit so surprisingly versatile you can use it to craft a margarita, martini, or Manhattan, underCOVER is a 10-city concert series starring either "choral symphonic rock" act The Polyphonic Spree, two-man power-disco wrecking crew Ghostland Observatory, or Springsteen-punk poets The Hold Steady, plus Flavor Flav-championed opener DJ Lord of Public Enemy, whose scratching is so thunderous, you will think he rolled around in poison oak. The bands will tear through their own tunes, and scorchingly respectful interpretations of their idols'; each show will feature reality-bending visual effects, and a revolutionary encore that will make all other encores seem about as exciting as two hours on a Precor Elliptical.

To get your ticket, just text in "BOSTON" to 68405, and after verifying your age, you'll be sent an invite, followed by an admission code to flash at the door. You can also RSVP via the Southern Comfort fan page on Facebook, where you'll also find updates, highlights, and photos so exhilarating, your own pants will get even tighter.

Text "BOSTON" to 68405 for your ticket. Tell friends to do the same, or you will disown them. Or RSVP via Facebook.com/SouthernComfort

Social Suicide

Available at Wish You Were Here Swap thru Sept 13th; 186 Orchard, btw Houston & Stanton; LES

As a material, mesh has long been associated with primal, grunting, sweaty endeavors, some of which apparently take place outside of the strip club. Because sometimes you sweat in blazers too, check out this season's Social Suicide.

The self-described "brawn-child" of two long-time Brit buds, SS's summer lineup pushes the edge of men's fashion by incorporating casual mesh into an array of fancy pants party jackets, all developed on Savile Row before being individually made in India under a one-tailor-per-jacket system, 'cause you don't want the baggage of a previous three-way to strain your relationship with your duds. Their classic, cinched-waist, two-button silhouette kicks off with 100% linen jobs like the Fresh, which contrasts your choice of a cream/blue/gray exterior with a light blue polyester mesh half lining, revealed only when you use the hidden elbow-button to roll up your sleeves Don Johnson-style; and the Breeze, which features a vertical zipper along the back that opens to the mesh lining, allowing for ventilation and extra give, perfect for when Bill Bixby is only moderately irked. For more visible tomfoolery, the Gale rocks mesh on its lapels, plus a strip running from the armpit to the cuff for breathability, while the Hurricane adds said wondrous fabric to waist and back, and finally the Storm ditches linen altogether, making it "utterly useless for insulation", so thank god for Ton Tons.

If you're blazer'd out, they also rock a handful of ultra-fitted polos and tees, linen pants w/ hidden zipper pockets, suspenders, and mesh/linen ties with alternating colors on either side that they call "double-ended", though generally that happens in the comfort of your hotel suite, so why bother with pants at all?

Scope the full line-up and buy online at SocialSuicide.co.uk

Taqueria Los Dos Amigos

Wed to Sun, 6pm to 3am: NW 27th Ave and NW 14th St, parking lot of Advanced Auto Parts; West Little Havana, Miami; 786.267.7803

While it mostly sucks, the recession has some serious fringe benefits: all sorts of stuff's on sale, rents are down, and you don't have to wake up for work anymore. And tacos, thanks to a little truck that could called Taqueria Los Dos Amigos.

Dos Amigos is the recession reaction of two buddies who grew up outside Mexico City, worked construction here until the bubble burst, then bought an old Lance Cracker truck and rigged it with a mini-kitchen, so as to whip up strictly traditional Mexican fare emulating the grub they grew up on, and hawk it nightly in the parking lot of an Advanced Auto Parts, because if you're gonna eat outside a Pep Boys, you'd better have some great wipers. The crux of the menu's the double-corn tortilla'd $2 taco, served with a traditional Mexican topping of finely chopped cilantro and raw onions, and filled with your choice of pork marinated in a mild medley of chilis, chicken breast steeped in garlic and oranges, tongue that's been chopped and grilled, and beef marinated in beer, meaning it'll have no problem acclimatizing to your belly. Other offerings (all $5) include tortas (a Mexican sandwich), burritos, and quesadillas, all available with the above meat selections and topped with your choice of salsas made by the wife of uno of the Amigos: a mild green one with peeled green tomatillos and jalapeños, or a hot-smokey one with tomatillos and dried red chilis; they've even added sour cream, 'cause they figure Americans will be asking for it, which is exactly what all the donkeys in Tijuana say.

For thirst, they've got a bunch of American sodas, plus a bevy of Mexican Jarritos like tutti frutti, strawberry, banana, apple, grapefruit, and tamarindo, which comes from a super-tart fruit that's also a mild laxative -- drink enough, and you'll finally have something to get you out of bed.

Atlanta Crime Tracker

Atlanta's a city where no matter where you start, you can still make yourself, as long as you don't wind up living in an area where you're often forced to "Break yourself." Fool. Keeping you apprised of where the malfeasance be, Atlanta Crime Tracker.

Conceived by a GSU doctoral candidate, ACT's a new website that keeps you updated on ATL metro area lawlessness using crime data gathered from the Atlanta PD, by Gmapping them by type and time occurred, leaving you shocked to see how many people brazenly remove mattress labels in broad daylight. The criminality commences with with a map of inside-285, with color-coded circles plotted at the locations of crimes, each getting a symbol to denote a different transgression (e.g., murder, burglary & narcotics, each of which you can toggle on/off); click a marker and you'll get a popup telling you the most recent incident that occurred there, plus nearby similar crimes, with the date, exact street address, and a clickable incident number leading to fuller details spelled out in truncated-but-decipherable police language: ROB-STREET-OTHER WEAPON, BURG-FORCD ENTRY, and LAR-SUDDEN SNATCH, which surprisingly comes from the theft, not prostitution, category. Right now, tracking dates back to Jan 2009, and you can designate up to a one-month date range in calendar boxes (or click on a month-by-month readout to view 7-10 day windows), e.g., while there were two murders from May 10-17, 124 vehicle thefts occurred from June 1-5 -- reassuring news, unless you're a Mercury Mountaineer.

If you prefer to be constantly updated on when crimes occur, Tracker can immediately send alerts to your email address -- set it up just for assaults, and you'll truly be getting the breaking news.

Stay one step ahead of the bad guys by staying tuned to local misdeeds when they happen; visit AtlantaCrimeTracker.com right now

Coo's Sports Bar

Opens tomorrow, 4pm: 822 N Broad St, at Parrish; North Philadelphia; 267.318.7689

It's always nice to watch local teams at the ol' watering hole, but how can you claim to be a real sports fan if you don't know if the Adelaide Crows have what it takes to fend off the Geelong Cats in some sport you've never heard of that's probably only played in prisons? Not taking any chances when it comes to covering all your teams, Coo's Sports Bar.

From a couple of old sports buds who met while coaching wrestling/ringworm-prevention at Neshaminy HS, Coo's is a high-ceilinged, exposed brick-heavy, 150-seat restobar boasting 32 plasmas spread throughout a wine & chocolate-toned front room anchored by a 60-stool rectangle bar (which features a regulation shuffleboard table), and a rear lounge area with a dedicated spirits bar, because they know you love booo-rboun. The menu's vast and adventurous for a sports bar, starting off with apps like beer-battered shrimp tempura, grilled pizza (specials/toppings rotate daily), habanero-fueled Dragon Fire Wings, and curried Raj Mussels, proud holder of 12 consecutive India's Strongest Man titles. Larger plates break down into "Minor Leaguers", including the Monte Cristo-esque Hawk served w/ warm maple syrup, and the provolone-smothered Pittsburgh Strip District Sandwich w/ pastrami or kielbasa topped w/ coleslaw & fries; and "Major Leaguers" like The World Series, pork roulade stuffed w/ mushrooms in Dijon cream sauce, and The Super Bowl, an Italian Cioppino stew loaded with seafood, sausage, and Donovan McNabb's hangover.

On the sudsy side, 21 taps pour everything from locals like Yards Brawler & Sly Fox Pikeland Pils, to virtual strangers at the sportsbar like Radeberger, Franziskaner, Chimay White Triple -- which any true sports fan knows wins the fifth rubber of a cricket match, duh.

Click here to view the entire menu and play your own game of "Name the Local Reference Source" as you scan through the dishes at CoosSportsBar.com

There are myriad benefits to a background in construction, like learning not to get screwed on material costs and labor, and getting really, really good at making chicks fall in love with you just by whistling. Adding the food game to that list, Ledge Kitchen & Drinks.

From a former construction guy whose transition to the restaurant biz was smoothed by years of dealing with the ins and outs of contract work, this new Lower Mills bar/grill serves up hearty modern American in a simple but crisply decorated grey/dark beige 21-table dining room w/ sectioned off 18-seat bar, exposed stone walls, and a mammoth landscaped stone-floored 100-seat garden patio with exclusive full bar, and separate areas for dining and cocktails -- because everyone remembers what happened last time dining came in with her new boyfriend. Meaty steak and seafood deliciousness includes an 18-ounce bone-in ribeye doused in a Cabernet rosemary glaze; lightly pan seared sea scallops dripped w/ brown honey butter with mushroom ravioli and sautéed garlic spinach; and Mike's Mac and Cheese baked up w/ scallions, sweet corn, and your choice of lobster, pulled chicken, or short ribs -- which is mean, because it wasn't a choice so much as a genetic certainty. LKD also fixes up sammies like the Broiled Crabcake slathered w/ Creole mustard aioli; and flatbread pizzas like the Grilled Beef Tenderloin (sweet onions and sharp cheddar covered w/ a garlic white sauce), and the avocado crème fraiche-covered Lobster and Goat Cheese topped w/ tomatoes and country bacon, which you eat really loudly when your friends aren't around and just like it because your dad always ate it in the car growing up, not that you should have to defend yourself, frankly.

If you're just out gossiping with the ladies over small bites on the patio, starters include a braised short rib arancini in an organic coffee sauce, and there's an extensive drink menu boasting 16 beers (Newcastle, Shipyard), 57 wines (Wild Rock, Cakebread), and an assortment of specialty cocktails -- have a few, and you'll be looking for any excuse to show off your skill with the ol' ballpeen.

SeventhHill

327 7th St SE; Eastern Market; 202.544.1911

Some of the most sought after raw materials hail from Europe -- clothiers import fine Italian silk to make beautiful suits, and Tiger Woods imported a fine Swede to give Big Bertha to his children. Importing prized European rocks to make you some dank pizza: SeventhHill.

A small, black-and-white tiled, galley pizzeria lined with decorative wooden pizza peals and racked firewood, Hill's helmed by two intrepid Frenchmen who, in order to create truly epic pies, decided to import an oven made from prized Rhone River stones originally recognized by the Romans for their superior baking quality, especially when it comes to crazy bread. Their 11 gourmet 'zas, available in 8'' or 12'', are all named after surrounding 'hoods/streets/landmarks, including the tomato/black olive/anchovies/basil "Southwest Waterfront", the tomato/goat cheese/tapenade/mushroom "Eastern Market", and the artichoke/zucchini/portobello "Lincoln Park", destined to be named MTV's "Best Pizza of the New Millennium" despite not being able to sing. You can also custom-top your pie, or go for daily special soups or paninis that use bread fresh-baked in the same brick oven, each loaf representing thousands of years of tradition that even now drip mayo onto your chinos.

Because imported-stone pizza deserves imported beer, Hill surrounds their Americans (Dogfish, Red Hook) with 8 imports including Leffe, Affligem, and Franziskaner -- all Taylor Made to help you realize your Swedest of dreams.

Hill plans to open Tuesday, and in the meantime has sporadically been handing out free pizza "for fun". Check out the rest of the menu here to see if your neighborhood is now a delicious pizza pie.
