Enter the Dragon
We love Melt Bar & Grilled. We love movies. So it doesn't take a freakin' rocket scientist to figure out that we doubly love Melt Bar & Grilled's Late Shift movie series at the Capitol Theatre. The big cheeses at Melt offer an exclusive sandwich at both locations that's somehow tied to the midnight screenings. Saturday's movie is Bruce Lee's 1973 face-busting masterpiece Enter the Dragon. Safe bet that the food will kick ass too. — Michael Gallucci
