Ripe for critical reviews: indie movies at Robinson Film Center and an ambitious menu at Abby Singer's Bistro

The RFC (Robinson Film Center) is an unexpected oasis of urbanity on Texas St, downtown Shreveport. The re-do of this fine old building included appendage of a romantic, sensual balcony. Is there a more splendid outdoor cafe in this region?

The food at Abby Singer;s Bistro is perfect for the reviewer: it is not the standard local fare and it is not terribly expensive. In fact, here's the supper menu.

My favorite dish is the vegetarian Roasted Portabella Mushroom Sandwich, which features asiago cheese, roma tomatoes, arugula, roasted garlic aioli, shaved red onion and sautéed peppers for $8.

Here's a Times review of a supper at the bistro. Watch for the major elements of a review: a) description and b) evaluation.

Looking forward to reading your reviews of movies and / or meals at RFC.
