Each week, we share – through pictures – what the folks behind Durham Mag have been doing around town. We’re always out and about, just because we love this place; we hope you’ll comment with what you’ve been doing, too!

You can always count on The Carolina Theatre to host the coolest concerts, comedy shows and many other presentations, like Ghost Hunters Live! Senior Associate Editor Amanda MacLaren, who’s a fan of the SyFy program, kicked off the Halloween season with this fun and interactive talk featuring a couple of the show’s stars.
The Little Dipper
Wednesday is Ladies’ Night at The Little Dipper in Brightleaf Square! Bring your friends and share cheese and chocolate for the table for $9 per person.

These simple chicken tacos at Mesa Latin Kitchen are made extraordinary with delicious homemade tortillas and a side of salty plantain chips.

Luna Rotisserie and Empanadas
… and not just for the warm atmosphere and friendly service. This patacon pisao (blackened, pulled Freebird chicken is covered in a citrus herb simmer sauce and sandwiched between two large, fried plantain discs) and pimento hominy “mac” and cheese were packed with flavor. Amanda’s planning a return trip for the chorizo empanadas and spicy bacon collards.
