Rise & Dine: Noon Midtown

Noon Midtown

Done up simply with grain field-painted walls, concrete floors, and chair & bench seating, this new, health-centric breakfast and lunch nook serves up sandwiches in the morning (Prosciutto Baguette w/ sweet butter, parmesan) and afternoon (Meatloaf; Sopressata Panino w/ spicy salami, Fontina, & arugula); beverages range from "Espresso Breve" (from NC's Counter Culture) to "Complete Recovery" juice blend from ATL's Arden's Garden, essential after a night of Sheila's Tequila, especially if you're planning to hit Tim's Gym.

Check the menu for breakfast and lunch grub, at NoonMidtown.com

Wear: FUCT

FUCT

Preaching "cultural revolution through a total assault on pop culture", FUCT's visually arresting new line includes the Shriner-tweaking "Keys to the Universe" (orange, yellow, & purple skull rocking Fuct fez in outer space), "Canned Heat" (Vietnam-era photo of a machine gun toting soldier on a 'copter), and the army-helmeted "Turn on the Middle Class", reading "1970: Smoking Dope & F***ing in the Streets" -- a sight that, given 1970 grooming habits, is particularly fuct up.

Fiesta: Cinco de Mayo Block Party

Cinco de Mayo Block Party

Commemorate 5/5 at Eclipse di Luna's no-cover bash: $4 Herradura margaritas, $3 Dos Equis, and free-stuff-handing-out promo girls from both companies, plus Latino DJs and live performances from Orquesta Taboga, a 10-member Caribbean-American ensemble known for lots of bongo drums and being almost impossible to steer.
