You Gotta Rep Your Hood

Aquarium Drunkard's guide to the Triangle is making me homesick:
Restaurants: There are some good, affordable mediterranean restaurants in the Triangle, most notably Neomonde in Raleigh, which is by some railroad tracks that have hordes of tiger lilies growing by them from time to time.

Coffeeshops: We really like Cup a Joe on Hillsborough Street in Raleigh, mainly for their tapioca bubbles that they will put in your drink. And also because we end up seeing a bunch of friends whenever we hang out there for a few hours. Maybe it’s also the buzz we get from the dangerous second hand smoke.
When caffeine-and-nicotine junkies die and go to heaven, it looks like Cup a Joe.

They neglected to mention Nice Price Books and Reader's Corner, two of the best second-hand bookstores on the planet across the street from each other. New Haven's a nice town, but it doesn't even have one.
