Charlotte is blessed to have a wide variety of unique neighborhoods, each with their own culture and personality and it can take time living here to appreciate each of them. <br /><br />In this article, you beautifully described the interior of RiRas, but you failed to point out that the it was built in Ireland and then reassembled here in Charlotte. Another key part of this bar's history was that it suffered a devastating fire in 2009 and was closed for 9 months. Many pieces of the interior were restored by the co-owner himself, Ciaran Sheehan. <br /><br />It was also overlooked that many of the employees at RiRa are Irish! I am sure their stories of what led them to Charlotte would provide a great human interest angle. <br /><br />Finally, as others have pointed out, you failed to focus on the food served here and the accompanying sandwich bar, which is the main draw for lunch on weekdays in Uptown. <br /><br />Sadly, the editor of this blog should have a better understanding of the Charlotte restaurant/bar industry and recognize that an elementary blog about "who's in the crowd" and "bar fights" is not what readers are looking for.Brihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05315789477192713774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7801916039299690690.post-17201361601969158982011-07-11T12:02:09.389-04:002011-07-11T12:02:09.389-04:00IDEA: get an adult to read these things over befor...IDEA: get an adult to read these things over before you post them.
