Bar FN (formerly Duffy's)

[baltimore_buh-ric]

To me, Bar FN will always be Duffy's. I've worked across the street from that place for many years now, and had a drink and/or delightful appetizer there at least twice, and for those reasons, I just can't get my head wrapped around the new name and fancy window dressing.

Long live Duffy's!

So says the buh-ric!

I too still think of "Barfin'" as Duffy's. Thank God that Rich Moore got them to hire a new bar wench, because their service was distinctly barf-ish.

There was a rumor floating about that Bar FN, which I myself still call Duffy's, was going to close and Far Niente was going to expand into the space. Happily, this rumor has been laid to rest. It turns out that Tony, the owner of Far Niente, only intends to convert the upstairs pool loft into a banquet room. That's ok with me, because only low lifes hang out up in that pool loft.
As for the new bar wench that Rich Moore was instrumental in hiring -- she was let go around the first of the year. We'll miss her dearly.

Thanks for that report, Book, and welcome to the RDS Message Board.
Yes, we'll all miss Rachel the Bar Wench (no relalation to our own Rachel the Animation Snob, may she rot in hell.)
