THE DLM ASKED IT’S READERS TO DESCRIBE THEIRPERFECT DOWNTOWN DATE ... THIS IS WHAT THEY SAID

THE DLM ASKED IT’S READERS TO DESCRIBE THEIRPERFECT DOWNTOWN DATE ... THIS IS WHAT THEY SAID

“Start the night off at The Partisan for a beer or two, then head over to J&R Tacos for dinner and then back to The Partisan to fi nish the night off with one more beer.”

— Sharlee Fragulia

“Dinner at King’s Asian, then Cold Stone Ice cream and then ending the evening with a play at Playhouse Merced.”

— Dave Luna

“Me and my girlfriend Kate usually spend our Friday nights by a going to Coffee Bandits, then to see a movie, then to J&R’s for some delicious food, then to Red Sky Comics to geek out.”

— Skylar Francise

My perfect downtown date would be dinner at Taste of Little India. Then we’d head over to Little Pink Boxes for the most delicious cupcakes, ever. Hopefully there’d be a DLM all-ages show that we could enjoy, If not, I’d say we’d see a movie or see a play.

— Lauren Stokes
