Don't pray that bad things will never happen to you. Pray for strength and wisdom so that when the bad things come, you can handle them.

Cocozza (the "pop-up")
NOTE: This was originally written for my main blog at KensFoodFind.com during the COVID-19 pandemic when many restaurants, including the Majestic Grille (where Cocozza stood in for) closed. Because it was a huge success, the owners decided to turn the "pop-up" concept into a full-blown restaurant in Harbor Town, Downtown Memphis' secluded community on the northern end of Mud Island. Since then, the restaurant's popularity has grown in Downtown Memphis and beyond. As a result, I went back to the restaurant to see it for myself, resulting in an updated review. The following is what I initially wrote about Cocozza. Enjoy.
_____________________
I learned that today is the last day for Cocozza American Italian, the "pop-up" started by the owners of The Majestic Grille to take the restaurant's place during the coronavirus pandemic. According to the blog I Love Memphis, the inspiration for Cocozza comes mostly from family recipes of co-owner and Italian-American Deni Reilly. Most of the menu is traditional Italian with items like spaghetti, lasagna and Chicken Parmesan. To quote the restaurant's website, it is a "red sauce joint" that is unpretentious in both its menu and how it presents itself. On the night that I visited (December of 2020), I kept it simple in getting the spaghetti and meatballs along with an appetizer (the Majestic… er, Cocozza's popular fried calamari) and a dessert (lemon cheesecake).

From what I remember, everything in the pasta was great. From the meatballs to the thick sauce, this was a well made meal that holds its own with other great restaurants like Bardog Tavern (coincidentally, both Deni and Bardog's owner Aldo Dean are Italian-Americans from New Jersey). I hope the spaghetti and the other Italian dishes will have a future with either the Majestic or as "Cocozza."
As I'm writing this post, this will be Cocozza's last night as a "pop-up" restaurant. With the world on the verge of returning to normal, Deni and her husband (the marvelous Chef Patrick Reilly) will soon resume operations of The Majestic Grille. I'm hopeful that "Cocozza" will continue in some form, such as a catering service or as retail products (prepackaged meals) that are currently selling in grocery stores like Cordelia's Market (aka "Miss Cordelia's") and High Point Grocery. Maybe demand could lead to a permanent "Cocozza" independent of The Majestic Grille, setting up shop in a neighborhood like the South Main Arts District. Regardless of its future, I appreciate the efforts of the Reillys for being innovative in keeping their restaurant going in these rough times. If this is it for Cocozza, it was great while it lasted.
DATE: Recently, the Reillys signed a lease in Harbor Town where they will relaunch Cocozza this Fall (2022). It will be located in 110 Harbor Town Square, next to Cordelia's Market. To learn more details, check out this article in The Commercial Appeal.

If you believe the stories, newlywed Ruth has been waiting for her husband to return from the sea for a few centuries after succumbing to her own death by freezing. A bit of an enigma even to the locals of Grimcoast Harbor, you'll be lucky if you catch a glimpse of her, let alone hear her tale. Though not an official resident of the coastal town, Ruth has her place here and the residents seem quite fond of her...even if some of them don't believe she actually exists.

congratulations to Mme. Pascale Leclerc, who has surely just experienced both the funniest and most unhinged weekend a mother could ever have. Dear fucking christ, I hope your middlest son brought you a bottle of champagne for yourself, ma'am.

Maybe? (the streets can hear u tho. keep it down)#race starts. lap one CHAOS. so many fucking crashes. i'd faint if i had a child even in karting honestly.#(every parent in this sport deserves a prescription for laudanum)#but he's not in it. hes at the front. and he. well. he just Stays There. Through It All. and the laps tick down. until the race is run. and#there he is. your middlest son. cross the line and into the books. first place. home town. what curse indeed. thats your boy!!!!!!!! THERE!#they play the radio of him winning and the audio is peaked because he screams out so loudly. you can hear the water in the laughter.#later theres gonna be videos and photos taken of him pushing his boss into the harbor and diving right in after the man. those photos are#gonna be fucking studied in photography classes one day. and STILL! everyone involved with that goofy joke about him adopting his coworker#(who. despite all the silliness of the race stayed second place and got a podium) is still carrying the bit like a baton relay. Do you have#him over for family dinner? might as well add a plate i guess! people are joking about your youngest son having two nephews? a dog born#maybe a month ago and a man born about... what twenty three years and about a month ago? fuck it! family dinner#sorry this bit got away from me but as someone who loves my homecity and my mom so much it might actually be like.#a visible growth inside my body if they do an autopsy on me at time of death or like. my love will eat me alive. sometimes the charratives#gets to me#anyway cheers mme leclerc i hope you party so fucking hard this week

wrote a fanfic for for @cupcakeshakesnake 's au. it's an AU in which most of the characters are children playing an elaborate roleplaying game, and the rest are the adults in their lives. Norrington and his lieutenants are teachers, and norrington in particular tends to work at various temp jobs during school break to the shock and amazement of his students. swann is the mayor, beckett is the local branch leader of a shipping or fishing conglomerate, davy jones is, inexplicably, still a cursed squid man.

ponderance of the day: you guys know those cities where like. the population doubles or triples during a certain part of the year due to tourism and summer/winter residents? i bet that must be really fucking creepy for cityhumans. like. does it seem like possession? like for half the year, all of a sudden, your friend is a brighter, shinier, different version of themself, even when just last week they were bitching with the rest of you about those damn tourists? or is it the other way around: the off-season hits and they fade, recede into themself, don't seem quite all there and take a minute to respond when you call their name? or is it both? do you start to wonder, eventually, which one is the real city? is there a real city, anymore?

Looking for media recommendations for small-town supernatural mysteries
Lately I've been wanting more stories set in a little rural town with dark secrets hidden under the surface. I'm down for literally any medium except a movie. TV show, webcomic, audiodrama, actual play, videogame, whatever. Here's some examples which I have watched/read/listened to for reference. Bolded are ones I really liked and are exactly what I'm looking for.
TV Shows: Gravity Falls, Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, Stranger Things
Audiodramas: Harbor, Unwell: A Midwest Gothic Mystery, Bridgewater, Where the Stars Fell, My Town
Videogames: Beacon Pines, Night in the Woods

You might be wondering, "Hey, this guy hasn't posted Lord Beckett content for a bit." Well wonder no more, today I shall be posting headcannons for my favorite PotC AU: Harbor Town by @cupcakeshakesnake!
Beckett most likely learned how to sew and crochet from Jane (Cause Cannon Jane sewed and crochet and knit so I assume Harbor Town Jane did too) when he was a kid and now he will do it sometimes, but not as much (mainly when he's in a hospital for one of his many health problems)
He is a god at Geogussr, with a premium account and everything, no explanation needed
As a child he also did that thing where he would choose a random person he really enjoyed and would say they are his crush because if I know anything that is like a Cannon Event for AroAce people
He totally was a theater kid, now that one is a bit more far-fetched, but just trust me
