Willie Nelson
The red-haired rebel, Family and Honeysuckle Rose III roll
into The Joint
Q: You have a long history with the state of Oklahoma. What comes to mind when someone mentions the Sooner state?A: Well some of my early years were spent listening to KVoo radio and bob Wills from Cain’s ballroom. i can still think of nothing better than listening and trying to play along with bob Wills and his Texas playboys. KVoo is a founder of true country radio. They were broadcasting history the entire time. Q: Your fans have been telling us that they really appreciate you playing the smaller markets. A: Well, that sure is good to hear. The smaller towns in oklahoma and the entire United states are special to me. some of my more devoted fans come from the rural part of society, which is a good thing. i like open spaces, ranch land, farms and wilderness. i guess this is why i like the life of a traveling musician. music truly is the only sensual pleasure without vice.Q: Oklahoma has produced many fine guitar pickers, as has texas. A: you know Charlie Christian shared Texas and oklahoma as living quarters before moving on to greatness. boy, could that young man play the electric guitar. stevie ray and Jimmie Vaughan, T-bone Walker and Freddie King come to mind when you mention Texas. Vince Gill is incredible on any stringed instrument. There are so many great and unheard-of guitar players out in the world. i am glad that i can still make a decent living playing mine.Q: What are some of your favorite Oklahoma memories?A: Cain’s ballroom was the place that every country musician dreamed of playing. To stand under the bob Wills sign on that stage truly was a lovely experience. it is a unique venue in the fact that there are not many like it still around. Q: What are some of the stranger things that fans have given you over the years?A: in muskogee, this woman gave me a handmade doll. it honestly looked exactly like me. i receive a lot of music and songs. some of it
When bob Dylan wrote “he who is not busy being born is busy dying,” could easily have been talking about Willie Nelson. although Nelson is
one of the few genuine musical icons, the 80-year-old singer, songwriter, guitarist and actor continues to be a restlessly creative soul. moreover, like the proverbial phoenix, he has perpetually renewed his artistic vision throughout a career that spans more than 50 years, 100+ albums and literally countless miles on the road.

is good and more than its share is not. Folks make me hats and guitar straps. They still try to hand me marijuana. The fans mean more to me than most people realize. They played a big part in all of this. i try to meet as many of them as i possibly can. i did have a minor incident with one who grabbed my hand a little hard. he tweaked a few of my tendons. i have to be careful with that part of show business.Q: Do you like the entire process of recording an album?A: For the most part, yes. i try to go into the studio when i am ready to be in one. Unless someone who i have always wanted to record with looks me up, i try to do the studio thing when i want to. Creating music is a fabulous thing. We, as musicians, are aware that this is the way things have to be. it can be a pain when the process breaks down or is not working out. it costs a hell of a lot of money to record an album. Therefore, a lot of thought goes into recording a Willie Nelson album. after this process completes itself, the Family and i usually are ready for the road and all of its adventures.

Buckets BlakesThe Harlem Globetrotters may act like clowns, but their brand
of hilarity takes nothing away from their hoop skills
an entertaining mix of theater, comedy and athleticism, the harlem Globetrotters, now based out of phoenix, ariz., have been playing their fabulous brand of ball since 1927.
barnstorming the globe and dousing kids (and kids at heart) with confetti, ball handling and “sweet Georgia brown,” the Globetrotters put on a show that’s equal parts pick (from the audience) and roll (with the unexpected) that culminates in audience participation, plenty of laughs and a handful of professional basketball wow moments. blakes, a 12-year veteran of the organization, and his teammates are dribbling in to Tulsa on Feb. 7 as part of the organization’s “Fans rule” tour.
Q: With this state being so Oklahoma City thunder crazy, are you guys expecting a good show when you come to tulsa?A: absolutely. We have fun no matter where we play, but the fans are always great. i’ve played in Tulsa before when i was in college [blakes played collegiately at the University of Wyoming]. it was obvious that people in Tulsa really like their basketball. We feed off the crowd so i think it will be a great show.Q: In terms of a “show,” how much of what you guys do is scripted and how much is “real” basketball?A: When we’re on the court playing, it’s all real. No one wants to let his man blow by him for an easy basket. but basketball is a fun game and we try to bring that part to the court in entertaining ways. Dunks and baskets are great, but when you get a kid out on the court and they respond in certain ways that get the whole place giggling, that’s what it’s all about. Those moments are great.Q: Fans have always had a pretty big impact on a Globetrotter game, but this year they’re getting even more power.A: yeah, they get to vote on special rules that we use during the game. it takes the game to another level. Things like “make or miss,” “6 on 5” and “Trick shot Challenge.” you never know what’s going to happen or how it will affect the final score. They vote on our website [www.harlemglobetrotters.com] for the rules during the first three quarters. The fourth-quarter vote is done live with cheers and a show of hands.Q: I’m guessing based on your name that you’re a scorer so which fan rule fits your game better?A: i definitely like when the Trick shot Challenge happens. each coach gets three challenges during the quarter. if you answer the
boK CEntErfeb. 7 | 7p
tickets: $23, $29, $42, $60, $118phone: 866-7-boK-Ctr
challenge and make the shot your team gets 5 points. miss it and the other team gets the points.Q: You make more than you miss?A: absolutely. No one can hit more of those things then me.Q: how about Kevin Durant?A: i don’t know him, but i used to play some with James harden. he’s from my state [arizona] and we’ve played in summer stuff together.Q: Can you take harden in a game of 21?A: We don’t play 21 anymore. i can’t remember the last time i’ve played that game it’s been so long. but i’m pretty confident in my skills. Those guys [Nba] know we can ball. all of the Globetrotters were great players on the collegiate or professional level.Q: So your best five against an nBA team. Who wins that?
A: We’d do oK. – Chris Greer

As the Eagles FlyAs the chilly veil of winter
spreads across the plains, hundreds of bald eagles make their way to northeastern Oklahoma
The winter months are the perfect time to head out on a crisp, clear day in search of the approximately 800-2,000 magnificent eagles that call the sooner state home during the season’s peak.
migrating south to oklahoma from Canada and the northern states in search of warmth, these noble birds join nearly 80 pairs of bald eagles that are year-round residents of oklahoma, creating a birder’s paradise filled with boundless eagle-viewing opportunities.
The bald eagle’s trek into oklahoma begins in November and early December, and peaks in January and February, when numerous bald eagle watching events pop up around the state to take advantage of the increased numbers. primarily a fish-eater, the bald eagle prefers to settle near oklahoma’s lakes and rivers for easy access to food. Groups of eagles will rest together, or “roost,” in trees along the shores, with the same roost trees being used each year. With 7-foot wingspans and bright white crowns, the grand size and distinguished appearance of these birds make them easy to spot and watch. as birders have long known, watching a bald eagle in its daily routine is awe-inspiring.
EAGlE VIEWInG tIPS• The best time to observe eagles is around sunrise or sunset.
• Wear warm, neutral-colored clothing and appropriate outerwear. Winters in Oklahoma can be cold and windy, so bring along a warm coat, gloves, hat and scarf.
• Bring binoculars, a camera (preferably with a zoom lens), and a field guide to help you identify eagles and other bird species you may find along the way.
• For some of the eagle-viewing events, a portable camp chair or lawn chair is recommended.
• Always call ahead to state parks or wildlife management areas for up-to-date eagle viewing information before your trip.eagle photos by Pete henshaw/Northeastern state University
EAGlE VIEWInG hOt SPOtS In GREEn COuntRYSequoyah State Parksequoyah state park, located on the shores of Fort Gibson lake in northeastern oklahoma, is a fantastic location to spot the area’s bald eagles in action. hills slope down to the lake’s 225 miles of tree-lined shoreline, providing an ideal habitat for the eagles. meet at the Three Forks Nature Center for an educational presentation about eagles, and then stick around for a chance to meet the center’s resident eagle before venturing out into the park.
Sequoyah national Wildlife Refugebring your binoculars and hiking boots to the sequoyah National Wildlife refuge and venture out to spot southern bald eagles on the nest. located along the upper half of the robert s. Kerr reservoir south of Vian, the refuge is known for its winter eagle sightings along numerous hiking trails and observation areas scattered throughout the park. This picturesque area of northeast oklahoma is a haven for a variety of wintering birds and wildlife with plentiful shoreline, river bottoms and wooded swampland.
Keystone lake & Keystone State Parka favorite fishing area for migrating bald eagles, Keystone lake consistently attracts eagles each winter to its eastern shores. located on the arkansas river about 23 miles west of downtown Tulsa, Keystone lake and Keystone state park offer numerous opportunities to see eagles as they dive for fish around Keystone Dam or as they soar above the park’s lakeside, wooded hiking trails. make your way over to the eagle overlook platform in the brush Creek area below the dam to watch as these elegant creatures capture fish in the calm waters of the lake.

CovEr story
Don’t let the outside fool you. Whoever came up the proverb “Don’t judge a book by its cover,” could easily have been talking about The Campbell hotel. as unassuming as this
grande dame is from the street level, step past the front door and you’ll be blown away by luxurious surroundings and plenty of character.
a short walk from the University of Tulsa, The Campbell hotel offers a warm and welcoming lobby complete with oversize fireplace, wide staircase to the rooms, long dim hallways, wood floors, ceiling terrariums and some of most unique rooms you’ll find in the state.
originally opened in 1927 as the Casa loma hotel by max Campbell on the second floor of the building, it featured 36 rooms and six bathrooms. The hotel was a destination for many traveling salesmen due to its convenient location on both route 66 and at the end of the 11th street Trolley. salesmen would walk up the grand staircase, check in, hop on the trolley, peddle their goods, return and spend the night before continuing their travels on the mother road.
The price was another factor for travelers. it cost about 50 cents less to stay at The Casa loma—which at the time was on the outskirts of Tulsa—then to stay in what is now called downtown.
The
Fall under the Valentine spell in one of 26 uniquely
decorated rooms
Campbell hoTel
The Casa loma hotel was in operation from 1927 to about 1960. While all of that was going on upstairs, the lower level was a variety of different retail shops including a safeway grocery store, a drug store, Casa loma barber shop, and a piggly Wiggly to name just a few.
later the building was bought by Wilkerson Chevrolet and turned into a paint and body shop. after that closed, the building sat vacant for a number of years until the current owners bought it in 2008 and began renovations in 2009.

it’s mid-January and no one is eating at prhyme steakhouse. it’s closed. a strange occurrence for sure considering it’s sunday, traditionally one of the busiest nights and a power player in a
restaurant’s bottom line.
instead of plating one of their hallmark 30-day, dry-aged rib eyes freshly removed from the 1,600-degree broiler, the prhyme management and staff along with those from sister locations Juniper and Tavolo are packed into bar46 in the brady arts District shooting pool, watching NFl playoffs and unwinding during a late-arriving holiday party.
busy serving the Tulsa masses in the three downtown locations over the actual holidays, this was the first opportunity Justin Thompson was afforded to provide his team a well-deserved break and time of reflection on another year of dishing out great eats and entertainment. and the money lost by not being open? While profits are not off his radar … after all zero profits usually translates to zero restaurant … there are other considerations that he values more.

“sure we all want to make money, but it’s not the reason i do this,” says Thompson while seated near a floor-to-ceiling window at Tavolo, located in the former edward Delk’s on boston avenue in the art deco philtower. “There are competitive pressures to succeed and be profitable. but it’s passion that drives me. playing with food, providing an incredible experience for customers and giving 85-90 people the ability to work and pay their mortgages … those things mean more to me than loads of money or having my name over a marquee.”
Thompson, an it-Guy restaurateur in a city known for big ideas and sometimes bigger egos, is a strong entrepreneurial founder who guides the growth of his three very distinct, yet trait-sharing restaurants with a passion to get the basics rights. From Tavolo (meaning “come to the table”), an italian bistro; to Juniper that features plates with italian, French, american and spanish influences; to prhyme which exudes the classic steakhouse yet provides a modern-day twist with an entrancing presentation of choice cuts, Thompson has created a portfolio of vastly different restaurants that opened white hot in the last three years and still burn brightly.
and it’s no fluke.
With no sense of entitlement despite a resume that affords him such privilege having left his mark at The brasserie, sonoma, Duke’s, polo Grill and Ciao, baby!, Thompson has demonstrated a particular genius embarking on new culinary journeys with a clear vision of keeping menus interesting and surroundings lively. if he wanted to be purely financial, he could easily have opened the same concept over and over again. instead he opted to contribute and preserve the culture of food and a great
dining experience in three unique settings with a strong, deliberate and measured approach.
“success can’t be measured until you’re done. i’ve never been ready to start patting myself on the back,” he says. “as they say, you’re only as good as your last meal. i’m not in the business of buying into being complacent or arrogant.”
he’s built his reputation and success around a core ideology that values weigh much heavier than just making benjamins. and it’s that strong sense of identity and a thread of continuity that holds them together. There is no undisciplined pursuit of the “next big thing” with Thompson, who says that the three restaurants are “profitable and meeting expectations,” because he has strategically not tried to grow beyond his ability to fill key seats with just the right people. armed with a home-grown management team that preserves his values in a gut-level way that outsiders may not grasp, Thompson has pulled off his three-peat by assigning trusted managers possessing skill and creativity, all the while maintaining the idea that dining out is supposed to be fun.
With the restaurant landscape in constant change, fundamentals and core values are more important than ever in creating experiences that resonate with consumers. Just ask Justin Thompson who creatively opened, to white-hot reviews, vastly different establishments in the last three years that continue to burn bright.

20 The agents of change, who assist Thompson in moving the properties in exciting new directions include T.C. leroy (prhyme general manager), Joe breaux (prhyme sommelier), Kristen Villareal (Tavolo general manager) and heather Dusenberry (Juniper general manager).
“one of the great things about Justin is that he’s very open to ideas from anyone,” says Villareal, who has worked with Thompson in many capacities at various locations over the years. “most of the time, you hear of bosses who want it done their way. or chefs who would be insulted if you made a comment about a dish. but not Justin.
“he’s always been approachable. almost 99.9 percent of the time, if we come to him with an idea he backs us and trusts our reasoning because we’re all in this together.”
many restaurants don’t survive a year in this economy and the failures are rarely tied to what the world does to them or the changes around them, but because of what they do to themselves. often that includes ignoring the voice of the consumer.
“people have a reaction to food that is sometimes good and sometimes bad,” Thompson says. “maybe they’ve just had a bad day and you get the brunt of it for no reason. or maybe we just flat out screwed up in meeting their needs. either way, you have to get honed in to your guests’ feedback and listen intently to what they have to say. i can’t tell you how many times a customer has told me or my management team something that helped us better position ourselves to improve our food or service.
“We will always go above and beyond for our guests. service is our primary goal and we hope to always exceed our guests’ expectations.”
and it’s not just lip service. in reviewing social media sites like Trip advisor, Urbanspoon and yelp, you can find Thompson personally replying to comments made about his restaurants.
“We give everyone a voice from the people who bus the tables and wait staff, to our customers and those who post things online,” says leroy. “Words definitely carry weight around here.”
so do terrific menus that utilize a local farm-to-table concept.
From its quaint lower level bar and lounge area, to the second-story views, Tavolo offers a family-friendly, upscale environment with Tuscan textures and colors highlighting the room. Choose from plenty of main course options, from meat and seafood to pasta. Tavolo makes its pasta in house and procures high-quality meats and safe harbor-certified seafood for dishes like spaghetti pomodoro, pan seared trout, garlic herb chicken, veal marsala and braised pork shank.

The 16-ounce bone-in rib eye is flavorful, served with roasted vegetables and pear jam.
Juniper, which is fun, energetic and has a beat all it’s own, offers an elegant space suitable for a special-occasion dinner, yet cozy enough for a casual meal. specialty entrees run the gamut from tender, classically prepared paneed rosemary chicken or seared Chilean sea bass layered with carrot ginger broth to brown butter trout, chicken pot pie, bison burger and braised pork cheek stroganoff. a handsome bar offers thousands of unique, barrel-aged cocktails, scotch flights and vintage wines.
With a warm, inviting ambiance, prhyme prides itself on intriguing appetizers, ample sides and well-marbled beef that can be selected from grass-fed; 21-day, wet-aged; and 40-day, dry-aged. highlights include a 6-ounce petite filet mignon; 30-day, dry-aged Ny strip; australian lamb chops with rosemary parsnip risotto, apple and fennel compote and a demi-glace; and a veal
T-bone. The prime beef may be the star of this show, but you can also find a list of other intriguing entrees including stuffed double breast of chicken, king salmon filet, coldwater lobster pasta and caviar. and make sure to ask your sommelier to expertly pair your choice of meats with any of the more than 200 offerings from the meticulously chosen wine collection.
“at the end of the day, we stand behind what we’re really good at and that is food quality and service,” says Thompson, who currently doesn’t have another restaurant concept in the works and is content to continue to build on the favorable reviews for Juniper, Tavolo and prhyme. “after that, Tulsa diners will decide whether we’re doing a good job or not. if they are happy, then we are happy.
“right now all indications are that we have three great restaurants where everyone wants to enjoy a great dish and have a good time.”

feb. 14the Fab Four: the ultimate tributeriver spirit event Centerthe fab four: the Ultimate tribute has been called the best beatles’ tribute ever by many media outlets. the fab four take their audience on a musical journey, beginning with the beatles’ 1964 performance on the ed sullivan show and continues through sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts club band to abbey road.
the fab four have travelled the world performing classic beatles hits, and the group’s unparalleled precision and Emmy award-winning performance recaptures the excitement and sounds of this legendary band. the band includes singer, rhythm guitarist, keyboardist ronald Mcneil (John lennon); singer, bassist, keyboardist andy sarraf (paul McCartney); lead guitarist, singer gavin pring (george harrison); and drummer, singer Erik fidel (ringo starr).
great care and attention has been made in recreating the song performances note-for-note, as well as in-stage appearance and sound. the band wears the familiar “fab gear” (pierre Cardin suits, Cuban heel boots), and play vintage ‘60s era equipment, including ludwig drums, hoffner bass, as well as gretsch and rickenbacker guitars.
Unlike other beatle tribute bands, the fab Four do not employ a “fifth Beatle” to provide added percussion, piano, synth-string and horn arrangements. instead, all vocal and instrumental parts are recreated live exclusively by the four multi-talented cast members themselves.
individually, the degree to which each cast member looks and sounds like the originals tends to vary from song to song, and from era to era as moustaches and beards are added with Mcneil and sarraf bearing the greatest physical and vocal resemblance to their characters.

Pack and prepare right before playing outside
each year millions of people venture outside their climate-controlled dwellings, leaving fully stocked refrigerators and functioning plumbing behind for a few days or weeks of
frolicking in one of mother Nature’s playgrounds. and it’s easy to get back to nature in one of the many state parks in the Green Country region including sequoyah, osage hills, okmulgee, Dripping springs, Natural Falls, lake eufaula, Keystone, Greenleaf, Grand lake and Cherokee landing.
Whether you choose to set up camp at state parks, resorts and campgrounds or you prefer the adrenaline rush of camping in the wild, being smarter than the average bear can heavily factor into whether your first experience is your last.
• Plan Ahead: make sure to leave a copy of your travel plans with a friend or relative. if something should happen, there will be a record of where you plan to be on certain days.
• Tents and Sleeping Bags: Unless you are rV camping you’re going to need a tent and sleeping bag. before purchasing either, consider where and how they will be used.
some tents, such as expedition domes, are built using a sleek design for deflecting high winds and cold climates. Cabin and one-man tents are designed with high ceilings and vertical walls for ventilation and more room. many tents built today are made with ease of setup in mind using color-coded clips or pole sleeves. Compactible fiberglass poles are great if you’re looking for durability and minimal space hogs, whereas aluminum ones are lighter and usually stronger but are slightly more awkward to carry long
distances. it’s also important to have a weatherproofed tent with a full-coverage fly for three-season and wet-weather protection.
sleeping bags come in mainly two styles—mummy and rectangular—and two insulation types—goose down and synthetic. rectangular ones are heavy and offer more room for those who enjoy tossing and turning at night. They can also be zipped together to form multi-person sleep zones. With a tapered design, mummy bags do a better job of retaining heat. if durability, dryer environments and smaller packing are the goal, the down version is probably the best choice although the price tags are a little steeper than the budget-friendly synthetic ones, which dry quicker and require little maintenance.
• Forget-Me-Nots: other bring-along-camping essentials are portable furniture, coolers, large-volume water containers, aluminum foil, tools, pocket knives, first-aid kit, flashlights or lanterns, insect repellent, storage boxes, toilet paper (it’s like gold in the outdoors), matches, cooking equipment, rain tarp, stove or grill, sunscreen and two-way walkie talkies.
most state and national parks require that you make camping reservations especially during high-traffic times such as summer or holidays. Visit travelok.com/state_parks to view photos, get specific info on each park, book a lodge or cabin and get a tee time. each park will be able to inform you of their camping policies and regulations. – Chris Greer

Money MattersDon’t get tripped up when tipping
Tips are generally considered to be tokens of appreciation for a job well done, but sometimes it’s just good form to throw a few bucks someone’s way. The art of tipping is a challenging
ritual in that there aren’t set rules or instructions. Generally how much and when to or not to are left to your discretion. The problem is that given that much latitude, some of us stumble.
here are a few tips on how to make your dollar bills create favorable impressions on those who usually receive a low hourly wage and depend on your gratitude or “gratuities” to make ends meet.
When unsure
whether to tip or
not, put yourself in
the other person’s
work shoes and go
with your gut.
hOtEl• Doormen who take your luggage into the hotel receive $1-$2 a bag depending on
the luxury of accommodations. if someone else takes the bags to your room, they should receive likewise compensation. A larger initial tip upon arrival (like $5) can probably get you a little extra attention during your stay.
• Valets get $1-$2 every time they retrieve your automobile. Don’t pay when you leave it (all the tips are split at the end of the shift) unless you ask for specific parking requirements or areas.
• The often forgotten piece of the tipping puzzle, maids should get $1-$5 per day depending on size of room, amount of mess you make and attention to detail they show. it is important to tip each day as a different maid may tend to your room the following night. The tips should be left in a clearly marked envelope and placed on the bed.
• When ordering room service, a 15 percent gratuity is usually already added to the bill. Check when the food or drink arrive. If so, then tip the delivery person $1-$2 depending on amount brought to the room.
• Concierges are your best bet for getting show tickets, finding seats in restaurants or getting the low down on the city. accordingly, you should tip for each service provided. Standard rates are between $2-$10 depending on the effort level required to accomplish the task you present them. – Chris Greer
REStAuRAntS• Giving a server who makes your experience enjoyable 15-20
percent of the pre-taxed check is right in line. make sure that the restaurant hasn’t automatically added a gratuity to your bill. This is usually done with parties of eight or more people.
• Even if you are eating at a self-service style restaurant or buffet, make sure you leave a couple of dollars for the people who refill your drinks and clear plates.
AIRPORt• Cab drivers should receive 15 percent of the fare
plus $1 per bag for getting them out of the trunk and to the curb.
• Porters (if available at your airport) get $1 on average size bags. Larger or more cumbersome bags or equipment should increase to $2 each.

brady arts distriCt
the Brady arts district is one of the oldest sections of tulsa. it is rich with cultural icons such as the Cain’s Ballroom and the ole lady on Brady. the buildings in the area that are still standing are primarily red brick and have been utilized as warehouses. the Brady district name is derived from Wyatt tate Brady who arrived in tulsa in 1890 as a shoe salesman and quickly opened one of the town’s first mercantile stores. Brady was one of the original incorporators of tulsa and is considered a pioneer, promoter and developer of the area having built Cain’s Ballroom and the first hotel with indoor baths, the Brady Hotel. He was also the first member of the democratic national Committee after Oklahoma became the 46th state in 1907.
a new baseball park—oneok Field is located on the east edge of the Greenwood district. the Blue dome district, which has steadily developed as a new area for nightlife with bars and dance clubs is on the south edge of the Brady and Greenwood districts. Williams plaza and tulsa City hall are directly south of the district along with the performing arts Center and the Jazz hall of Fame/union depot building. the
Bok arena is a few blocks southwest of the Brady district on denver.
blUE doME distriCtthe Blue dome
district is another center for downtown nightlife, centered at 2nd street and elgin avenue and expanding into the surrounding blocks. once a 1920s gas station attracting route 66 travelers with its art deco blue dome, this gem now sits at the heart of numerous pubs, restaurants, and a vintage bowling alley. several festivals take place here including the Blue dome arts Festival, Free tulsa music Festival and st. patrick’s day Festival.
ChErry strEEtCherry street is more
than its name implies—this colorful seven-block area of 15th street between peoria and utica wears
many faces. on saturday mornings during the growing season, you’ll find striped tents brimming with area growers’ harvest at the Cherry street Farmer’s market. later in the day, you’ll love browsing the shops, bistros and cafes. and in the evening, you’ll find restaurants with bars catering to those seeking a trendy and upscale nightlife.
brooKsidEBrookside, located just
south of downtown on peoria avenue between 33rd and 51st Streets, is another popular nightlife venue. Here, you’ll find dining, dancing and trendy clubs. this eclectic district boasts sushi bars near biker bars and indie coffee shops near martini lounges. at its center is the upscale international shopping and dining experience named Center one.

thE CEllar dWEllErthis is one of tulsa’s best kept secrets. a curving staircase down into the basement of an apartment building lets you out at a cozy little wine sink with warm mood lighting. Have a seat at the bar or one of the tables or booths in the intimate space. then order up a glass of wine, an old fashioned, or a $5 shot and Pbr special.
vintagE 1740the owners and bartenders are great. i always feel welcome no matter if i come in straight from a run or hang around and sip on a nice glass or two for a few hours reading a good book. i don’t feel i even have to bring company along, because there is always someone to talk to around here.
thE vaUltthis place was very unique. an old bank turned into a restaurant. apparently the bar area upstairs was already there. back in the 1950s the bar was there for clients dealing with loans and such. they would sit up there have a drink and smoke their cigarettes. Place was very fun and modern and the food was good. the lunch menu was perfect. their pretzel sliders were delicious.
