| - You won't find me at Zuma or on Mill late nights anymore, but if you time things correctly and know where to go, it is pretty easy to have most of the bars on Mill all to yourself believe it or not. This situation unfolded on Friday night during happy Hour at the Zuma Grill, where only a handful of folks were inside. Three drunken female coeds did wander inside, but they were on a birthday bender for their friend. Anyway, the bearded bartender, who might be a manager, was really nice during my visit, even switching on my team's game, not from me asking, but from our conversations at the bar. Appetizers were all half price, but I opted to try the $5.50 build your own burger which comes with three toppings of your choice and a 1/4 pound patty. The other burgers are 1/2 pound, but this one should fill up most people. Sauteed onions, bacon and slices of avocado graced my well done (of course) meat. Bartender told me to go for the onion rings and that also was a success. Always liked when places put ketchup in little cups also instead of bottles on tables. Although, I will likely not be here with all the college kids later at night, I can tell them from experience that a sweaty, crowded, sticky, tough-to-get-a-drink bar IS a college bar and stop complaining and embrace your local divey college bars.
