Sid Mashburn and Bacchanalia

Steve McQueen, Ernest Hemingway, Paul Newman, and Sid Mashburn-names synonymous with style and for good reason. Sid Mashburn was the Senior Vice President of Design for Lands' End from 1999 through 2006. After leaving Lands' End, Mashburn opened up a store bearing his own name and his personal style. In asking why he left Wisconsin, Sid replied "I never wear socks. It as getting a little cold up there." In fact, none of the employees at Mashburn wore socks and I have since decided not to wear socks. They are that cool. Here's a picture of the Mashburn staff.



Mashburn carries great brands from Barbour, Levis, Filson Luggage, and even Sid's own brand including shirts and great Monk Strap shoes.

Then we had dinner at Bacchanalia-best meal of my life. I pretty much want to go ahead and get an apartment on Howell Mill. I recommend the prixe fix menu. You get a delicious meal with plenty of "complimentary" treats between courses.
