Volume XVI. That’s sixteen in regular numbers. Our living room has come a long way over the course of the last few months. When we began this whole process, our front room was nothing more than a convenient place to park a bicycle. There was nowhere to sit, and even if you wanted to...

You already know that Su Casa sells furniture. You’re probably also aware that they’ve got you covered on everything from home decor to kitchen essentials to things for the kids’ bedrooms and play areas. They can even help you stock your bar. But what you probably...

If you’ve ever been inside a Su Casa location, you know it’s rarely the same store twice. They’re constantly bringing in new pieces, redesigning whole areas of their showrooms, and keeping things fresh and interesting. In that same spirit we’ve decided to...

Although we’ve only had our new sofa from Pad for a week today, we’ve been doing our level best to make up for lost sitting time. We figure we’ve probably got about three weeks’ worth of sitting in already, because we’ve been on the couch morning, noon and...

It’s been an eventful morning here at the Chophouse. As you already know if you’vebeen following along, we’ve spent the last two months or so designing a new living room from the ground up. We’ve been putting it all together piece by piece, and this morning we finally...

Over the last two months, we’ve been participating in a contest detailing our experience designing our living room from the ground up. We purchased a good deal of our furniture from Su Casa, and can honestly say that we’ve enjoyed our experience shopping there more than we have...

When we entered the Test it, Blog it, Win it contest a few months ago, it was a great opportunity for us not only to ‘test drive’ a brand new sofa, but also to fill a whole living room full of custom furniture from Su Casa. A couple of weeks ago we took delivery of our brand new...

So we’re trying to win a couch. We’re getting a couch from Pad, and writing a series of blog posts about it, and if we can manage to out-blog the competition then the good people over at Su Casa will give us the couch for free. It’s not just about the couch though. We ordered...

It’s been about a month now since we announced we’re participating in the Test it, Blog it, Win it contest from one of our favorite local retailers Su Casa Furniture. They let us pick out a custom couch for the Chophouse, and we’re going to live with it for a month and...

We announced a few weeks ago that this blog has been selected to be a part of the Test it, Blog it, Win it contest from local retailer Su Casa Furniture. We’re thrilled to be participating, and win or lose it’s been an incredibly positive experience for us. After demonstrating just...

As some of you may know, we’ve been selected to participate in the Test it, Blog it, Win it contest which is going on right now at Su Casa Furniture. We’re incredibly excited about having the opportunity to try to win some furniture by blogging about it, especially since our living...

Last week, we made the grand announcement that we are finally ready to furnish our living room. We’ve lived in the Chophouse for two and a half years now, and haven’t got one single piece of furniture in the house’s main space. Right now it serves as a bicycle garage, which...

So, when a man travels all over the world to exotic locales and the holiest sites in Creation, you would think he’d have a lot on his mind; history, philosophy, anthropology, war and peace. There’s so much out there to see and experience- lives, cultures, civilizations…...

Welcome back, Choppers. In yesterday’s post we went over the problems with most bar-stocking advice at great length. Today we’re back to give you some solid advice on how to get started on building a bar that even Churchill himself would be proud of. We told you yesterday that...

As some of you may already know, we recently furnished our dining room here at the Chophouse. We’re exceedingly pleased with it, as it turned out looking and feeling even better than we thought it would. Thanks to the invention of the 180 degree flatscreen, we can even see the television...

If you know the Chop at all, you know that we’re the type to take our drinking very, very seriously. Of course, we strongly believe in drinking responsibly, but to us ‘drinking responsibly’ doesn’t just mean taking a cab or laying off the Jaeger shots… it means...

Okay. We admit it. This is a half-assed post. No links or brilliant commentary today. We’re busy as hell this weekend and don’t have time for a proper post. In fact, we’re so busy we don’t even know what we’re up to today. We might go to the Senator Theater to...

It’s sometimes strange living as a man of leisure. Its easy to fall out of sync with the rest of the world. When the rest of the city is hating Monday and wanting to pass out with fatigue at night, we’re restless and looking for fun. When its Friday rush hour and everyone else is...

It’s Friday Baltimore. Ease up a little. You’ve been busting ass and running yourself ragged all week… don’t think we haven’t noticed. So tonight it’s all about taking it easy. Slow and Low, that’s the word today. And we’re in luck again, cause...

As you’re beginning to figure out, The Baltimore Chop is always on top of its game. We do what the hell we say we’re going to do, and when we say we’ll do it. Of course, our timing is always impeccable, and our attention to detail unimpeachable. So we’re very...
