A new Barfly worth buzzing about

Good news for all you intoxication connoisseurs in Tampa Bay. Tbt* has found a new Barfly who will be hitting the streets in search of the best places for booze hounds to go. Wade Tatangelo is the new man who will steer you to beer and he's off to a good start with his new review of the Beef O' Brady's on the USF campus that will be published in Friday's tbt*. Formerly, Wade was the music critic at Creative Loafing but his skills will put to good use at tbt* as you can see below.

"Nestled in the Marshall Student Center on the USF Tampa campus, this Beef ’0’ Brady’s is the place to enjoy hot wings and other pub grub goodies alongside undergrads in a room decked out in Bulls green and gold. There’s a 10-stool bar, cafeteria-style seating, a dozen LCD screens and billiards tables. And yes, there is beer and wine. But if you wish to enjoy an adult beverage, don’t arrive before 5 p.m. Apparently school officials are afraid students might tie one on before suffering through that College Algebra course. Guess they’re not worried about night class inebriation," — Wade Tatangelo

That's just a teaser, but I'll link up the full review when it's available or you can check it out in Friday's tbt*.

Is Wade Tatangelo related to owner of Tangelo's restaurant, 1st Ave. St. Pete? I'm trying to find the former cook who was, I think, the one who made the super smooth, non-spicy, non-flatulent black beans. Since he left the beans are not the same. This is crucial for lovers of black beans who are involved in new relationships! Please help -- Bean Lover in St. Pete

Thats just the way black beans are suppose to be! Super smooth, non-spicy, non-flatulent black beans. I just love them. Hope you find your cook :)
