This week David Lee Simmon talks Verret's Lounge (1738 Washington), a revamp of Central City's Turning Point from new owner Powell Miller. Booze upgrades include Bulleit Old Fashioneds, a patio is in the works, and Thurday night is bonkers busy, but the bar has also "preserved the 'set up,' a staple of black-owned bars where customers can bulk-purchase pint (or half pint) bottles of liquor and mixer with a bucket of ice for the evening."
