    Back in my younger days, I served 8 years in the U.S. Navy, and left as a Petty Officer 2nd Class,…read morewhich isn't too shabby considering the short time that I served in the navy. Although a U.S. Navy Chief Petty Officer is only two pay grades above a 2nd class, a chief is light years ahead, and chiefs are awarded privileges that are in many ways superior to the privileges that many commissioned officers enjoy. As a long-ago 2nd Class Petty Officer, imagine my surprise when my friend Brent, a retired Navy Chief Petty Officer, invited my friend Robert and I to join him at Sage and Sand CPO Club, at NAS, Fallon, NV, so I could be a "chief" for a day.. You have to love the Navy ship anchors in front of the building, which from the size of them, look like they came off a destroyer. NAS Fallon is many miles from the ocean, but it's a "Top Gun" base, as it trains and supports the men and women who fly "top gun" for the Navy. Unless you want to buy a round of drinks for everybody at the bar, DO NOT WEAR YOUR HAT, or "cover," in Navy terms, into the CPO Club. There is a small sign posted above the entrance to the bar that lets you know what is expected of you if you enter, "covered." Just inside the building there is a convenient board where you can hang your "cover" and then you won't have to buy a round of drinks at the bar. You've been warned, so just "do it." As you enter the main bar/dining room, you'll notice the full-circle bar, and the many television monitors that are playing a major league baseball game, on this early Thursday evening. As in Las Vegas, there's a sign above the bar that announces "What's said in here stays in here," and that's truly the motto for most U.S. Navy Chief Petty Officers and their guests. Sage and Sand CPO Club is not a restaurant, as it's more of a bar, and has the food catered and delivered. You place your order at the bar, and the bar conveys the order to the caterer, who is located nearby, and your meal is delivered to you in a styrafoam container, ready to enjoy. I saw the catering lady rush up to the bar with our "Shrimp Po' Boys'" in a bag, exchange a few words with bartender Val, and then she rushed off... "gone with the wind" before I could snap a photo. So... can you say "industrial food?" That's what I can say, which cost this "restaurant" a star for me on my Yelp review. I ordered a "Shrimp Po' Boy" sandwich, which gets you get lots of deep fried, battered shrimp, mostly small, served on a fresh, hoagie roll. Along with the shrimp, the sandwich is garnished with shredded lettuce, sliced tomato, along with sweet and smoky aiouli sauce, and a small bottle of Tabasco sauce on the side. Along with all of that goodness comes a small cup of cocktail sauce, for your dipping pleasure. Pass the ketchup!!! You get lots of perfectly seasoned and deep fried shrimp on your hoagie roll, along with the tangy aiouli sauce, with the diced lettuce and fresh tomato slices. With your sandwich comes a small "mountain" of perfectly deep fried fries, which are seasoned, and crispy golden on the outside, and chewy, tender white on the inside. Sage and Sand CPO Club caters a great "Shrimp Po' Boy" sandwich. The sandwich was great, but it was catered, and in my opinion, rather "industrial" or "institutional" in taste, and quite generic. Too bad it wasn't made on site, and too bad the delivery person was in such a rush. Just to be fair... three stars isn't bad, and I plan to hit this place again the next time I visit my friend. If the sandwich was made on site, and if the server had the time to allow me to take her photo, presenting the sandwich, this restaurant could have easily qualified for for stars, or maybe even for a fifth star, especially after I'd enjoy a few of their cold beers.

    This is definitely one of those places I'll always come back to whenever I'm in Lake Tahoe! The…read morefood was sooo good and tasted incredibly fresh. There's even a slight view of the lake, and it's only about a five-minute walk from the water. There's plenty of parking and both indoor and outdoor seating. We had actually gone fishing with Tahoe Sport Fishing the day before and caught our own fish. We regretted not bringing it in because they can cook your fresh catch for you! Next time, we're definitely doing that. I ordered the fish and chips, and they were SO good honestly some of the best I've had. Definitely adding this place to our must-visit list every time we're in Tahoe!

    MacDuff's Pub on Fremont, the kind of spot you find by accident and go back to every time you're in…read moreTahoe after that. French onion soup alone is worth the trip, generous portion, good cheese pull, served in a bowl that means business. Fish and chips were light battered and fried correctly, one order was more than enough for two. Truffle mac with crispy breadcrumb top was the other standout, ordered it as a side and ended up basically making it the main. Scottish ale on draft was the right beer for all of it. Cozy cottage feel, dog friendly patio, staff was genuinely friendly not just professionally friendly. 5 stars, best pub in South Lake Tahoe, dont miss it

    If you ask me for places that stand out in the greater Reno-Tahoe region brew scene, The Good Wolf…read morewould be near the top of the list. For years now, I've been saying these guys make some of the best, most unique beers in our area. And anyone looking for a solid pint or some creative things to try, would do well to swing by. Firstly, I absolutely love the location. It's a cozy little spot in the north Truckee industrial area. But step through the doors, and you enter a space that can only be described as a mix of hippy commune and witch's lair, with some delightfully quirky decor, and an incredibly friendly staff. Really does feel like a hidden gem. But as for r the beers themselves; in short, I think these are some of the best quality, and most niche types of brews you'll find around here. They have a smaller menu, but what they have is dominated by their Forest Beer series. These are concoctions made with all sorts of foraged ingredients from the forests, fields, and farms close to Truckee. Always changing, it is something to try out. The Borrowed Bines used fresh cut hops, the Bay Shore uses locally culled bay leaves, the Range of Light uses picked juniper berries, and the Dirt Candy uses mushrooms that grow in the woods. They also have been breaking into brewing their own apple cider, which is delicious but quite strong. Plus, they will usually have N/A options with their house lemonade or brewed soda on tap, too. So yeah, the menu almost certainly has something for everyone. Prices for everything are pretty typical.for the area, usually around $8-9 per pint. Though my one sort of gripe is that the smaller 4-5 ounce tasters are like $4 each, a bit pricier than most other tasters, so that makes it quickly more pricy to try out a lot of their menu. If you want any beers to-go, sadly they only offer a few at this juncture, and in bottles. And there is no food here, just a few snacks for sale. But make sure to browse their swag stands, as they have some eclectic merch. All in all, I definitely encourage any beer fans to come and check this spot out. Been one of my favorites for years, and I'll bet it can easily become one of yours, too. Cheers, all!
