But with a laid-back vibe, delicious Bayou-influenced food, and a fantastic cocktail menu, it’s well worth the trek. And if you don’t want to hoof it, never fear: There’s parking in the back, if you’re lucky enough to snag a spot. Bostonist went on a recent Saturday night to check......

--Why merge the blotter with snow emergency announcements? 2007 appears to be ending quietly, blotter-wise, and, if the incoming storm is going to be as bad as the weatherheads say it is, someone's gonna get arrested for a parking-related problem. In fact, the city of Boston has declared a snow emergency. The Mayor's Office announced that "the snow emergency and parking ban will go into effect at midnight tonight."

There’s on street parking not too far by, but please, please, don’t put your car inside the Green Street Station.

Sitting outside on a grassy patch next to flip-flop and business suit clad Bostonians seems like a recipe for snippets of wonderment. Sometimes it is and sometimes it isn’t. As the weather turns from Spring to Winter to Summer (it’s New England, right?) we’ve got our ears open and hope you do, too. When you hear something, say something.
