Eat your way through the Riverwalk!
Dine The District Food Tour
June 9th, 2012 1pm-4pm
RENO,
NEVADA, MAY 4 2012 - Reno Riverwalk Merchants Association, a coalition
of more than 45 businesses located along the Riverwalk in downtown Reno,
has stepped up to lead the charge as the quickly growing culinary
wundurlust that has hit Downtown Reno.
“Everybody benefits
from a beautiful, and active downtown river district,” said Matt Polley,
Riverwalk Merchants Association Past President and owner of Java Jungle
in downtown Reno. “The area hosts special events, concerts and builds
memories for members of our community, adding a vibrant dining district
is yet another step in the right direction.” said Rick Martinez,
Riverwalk Merchants Association 2012 President and owner of West St.
Wine Bar in the West Street Market.
The Riverwalk Dining
District is where Foodies come to feast on the many options of culinary
excellence located in the Heart of Reno, Nevada. The Riverwalk features
unique options in dining & entertainment showcasing selections from
around the world. Adding the title of Northern Nevada's new “Dining
District” is one more attraction for the community.
To kick
off the new Dining District merchants have teamed up for downtown Reno's
1st Annual Dine The District Self-guided Food Tour on Saturday, June
9th 2012, 1pmto 4pm. Not only will guests have an opportunity to enjoy a
variety of culinary delights from the best restaurants in the Reno
area, the proceeds will help support the continued development of the
Riverwalk District.
The cost is $20 per person, FREE for
children 10 years of age and under. Tickets can be purchased online at
http://www.dinethedistrict/eventbrite.com or during the day of the
event. Redeem tickets by presenting receipt at the new Reno Tahoe
Visitor Center located in the Reno eNVy store, at 135 North Sierra
Street Reno, during the day of the event, you will receive a food tour
map as your formal admission to the self-guided tour during the day of
the event.
With the already very popular monthly Wine Walk the
Dine the District food tours will provide another opportunity for the
community to enjoy the area. Some of the food tours participants include
Wild River Grille, Java Jungle, West St. Wine Bar, Pie Face Pizza
Company, Old Granite Street Eatery, 5 Star Saloon, Campo, Fuego for
Tapas & Vino, Bumble Bee Blooms, Imperial Bar & Lounge, Sierra
Tap House, Beaujolais Bistro, JB Mapes and an estimated 15 other
merchants already located within the Riverwalk.
“We hope this
event will bring awareness, support and additional revenue for the
business located in downtown Reno” Said Rick Martinez. With the
Riverwalk quickly growing to be the culinary epic center of the city the
Associations goal is to create future monthly food tours, progressive
dining tours, a Riverwalk cookbook and eventually an official
Restaurant week for the Reno area.
All the funds raised by
the Riverwalk Merchants Association will help establish a safer, cleaner
and more vibrant downtown area.

Abstract Rude stands as one of hip-hop's most accessible healers. Since first making regular appearances at L.A.'s legendary Goodlife open mic sessions circa 1994, this MC has steadily found the ideal balance of strong lyrical substance and high entertainment value. Unafraid to sing his own hooks and break out multiple flows within single songs, Ab Rude is one of the most multifarious graduates of the fertile L.A. rap scene.
Learning from some of the movement's best, the guidance received from his original group, Abstract Tribe Unique (ATU), along with Freestyle Fellowship (FF) has proven to be invaluable.
It was with FF's Aceyalone whom Rude would later go on to co-executive produce the classic compilation Project Blowed. The groundbreaking album showcased Abstract Rude as a skillful MC capable of expressing soulful sentiments with his mystical themes and deeply pronounced baritone. In addition to highlighting the artistic creativity of an L.A. scene known best for its gangsta rap, Abstract Rude co-founded the Project Blowed workshop in Leimert Park - the longest running open mic youth workshop in the world.
In time, Ab Rude has endeared himself to fans worldwide through consistent touring - most recently with international hip-hop artists DJ Vadim and Yarah Bravo - and by releasing quality LPs such as P.A.I.N.T in 2001, and Showtyme in 2003 (on Battle Axe). Most comfortable fronting the atmospheric sounds provided by producer Fat Jack on albums such as Underground Fossils in 1997, Mood Pieces in 1998 and South Central Thynk Tank in 1999 (on Mass Men), Abstract Rude proved that clarity in rap is just as impressive as complexity.
His work on the Haiku D'Etat projects in 2000 and 2004, which merged hip-hop with jazzy soul, only further illustrated his music's diversity and ability to capture listeners of various genres.
After recording under the Beastie Boys' Grand Royal imprint, Mass Men and Battle Axe, Abstract Rude joins the Rhymesayers Entertainment family with Dear Abbey. On his latest album and first for RSE, Ab further broadens his medicinal lyricism touching on politics, relationships, and multiple day-to-day issues. And for the first time ever, he worked exclusively with Seattle, Washington beatsmith Vitamin D - who's produced for G-Unit, Redman, Gift of Gab, Lifesavas, One Be Lo, I Self Devine, among others.
With the ever-shifting subject matter and vocal styles on display, Dear Abbey is further proof that Abstract Rude is a true lyrical heavyweight at the top of his game.
