If you have a few people,(i'd rec. 4 or more) eat in the Italian joint, Matarano's. (kinda pricey)Food pretty good but you'll have a blast. It's like a Sunday dinner at Mom's.

Shadroch, So if i find one of those machines you mentioned i'll be o.k. playing it? I'm figuring i could practice some basic strategy with a cheat sheet, make my decision and see if i'm right or wrong before making the play. Do you recommend playing 7 spots ? If i find a dollar machine that...
