The Tin Whistle welcomed our friends the excellent eagles in the legal field that we know as #RyanAndFord. When they aren't busy before judge, jury, or magistrates they enjoy checking out the dining option near and far.

A Cobb salad with outstanding house Steak Tips, Carolina Gold Ribs, and Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls kept our duo happy and also filled their bellies. The law is busy, hungry work.

Once again Chef Edina, one of our Salem favorites, sets the neighborhood bar kitchen standard high.

Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings at Koto Asian Fusion.

Lunch on Monday was in the Tanner City itself, at Champions Pub, Peabody. If ever a pub in Peabody has ever achieved iconic status, Champions seems to be the one.

As #MillerLitePlease and #TheBaldOne walked in just before Noon both the bar and dining room were quite busy, but a high top was secured quickly.

Onion Rings were first. How could anyone decide otherwise. Fresh cut, lightly breaded, and perfectly fried these Rings should not be ignored. A Sweet Italian Sausage Platter with rice and Fish & Chips fed our heroes, with two small, crisp Garden Salads ably assisting.

The service was attentive despite the busy room.

It was five years ago today that #TheBaldOne watched as the iconic neon Salem Witch sign was removed from the wall at Salem Beer Works and moved across the street to a temporary home until it was donated to North Shore Community Development Coalition.

We have been wondering as to it's final fate and have reached out to North Shore CDC in this regard.
