One Friday afternoon my GIRLfriend 😉 and I decided to skip class to go on a little city adventure. We jumped on a random subway and looked at the potential stops we could get off at. We decided Dekalb was a great choice and thought there would be many options to choose from around the area. Upon entering the Fulton Street Mall we knew we had made the right decision. Exploring the different floors of the mall we came across the “Alamo Drafthouse Cinema” at the top! We looked at different movie times to see which would best fit our agenda. It was only 5:40 and the next movie start time was “Falkirk” playing at 6:30 p.m. She’s also kind of a history nerd so she was intrigued. We noticed that there was a student discount so we had to jump at the opportunity. With some time to kill, we continued to wonder about the mall. In the basement we came across a Trader Joe’s which was the perfect place to shop for snacks to sneak in! We bought: multi-grain pumpkin o’s, Trader Joe’s milk chocolate covered pretzels, and Trader Joe’s pumpkin organic toaster pastries (it was clearly pumpkin season) and of course a bag of original movie theater popcorn. We shoved it all into our bags and returned to the cinema. When buying our tickets we had to select the specific row and seats we wanted to sit in. Upon entering the theater, we noticed there were tables located among the seats. Food dishes and drinks were being served like it were a dining experience. We continued to our seats. The table located between us was lit underneath making it very difficult to conceal our sneaky snacks. Eventually we gave in and bought milkshakes which turned out to be more expensive than our movie tickets. The movie was great, Harry Style’s was greater, and the Alamo Drafthouse is the greatest.
