We went for dinner at Upstream. They even brew their own root beer.

Tom and I shared a tasty salad, shrimp pizza and gigantic red velvet cupcake for dessert. A meal designed for one was big enough to feed us both.

Afterwards it was reverse happy hour, so we sat on the fairy-lit roof terrace and had a margarita and beer.

There's free pool during Happy Hour, so we had a game while I put The Faint and the Counting Crows' song Omaha on the juke box.

We then went for dinner at Upstream Brewery and got the beer sampler to try while waiting for a table.

We got to try 12 mini glasses of beer ranging from very pale to very dark. I'm not sure if I like American beer very much but Tom enjoyed it.

For dinner, I had the black bean veggie burger which was a little too spicy for me. We'd been given a $10 voucher for Upstream when we moved in to the lofts, so that paid for our meal.

There's a plaque outside with a story about the building, which use to be a firehouse. One day a passerby had to tell the firemen, who were sunning themselves that their building was on fire. They ended up losing the top floor.
