In the mood for fried fish? If you are near Chattanooga, Tennessee then you are in luck. Uncle Larry’s serves wonderfully crisp, perfectly cooked cornmeal crusted fish without any of the grease that often comes with fried fish. They use the same breading for all the varieties of fish available: whiting, perch, tilapia or catfish. […]
The Orange Cow in D.C.
I must tell you that from my first stay in Washington D.C. in the mid-1980’s until the sometime in the 2000’s I cringed when I thought of eating in D.C. My first experiences were so bad that I completely lacked objectivity when it came to dining in the United States’ capital. It was not until […]
Clumpies Ice Cream in Chattanooga
It may be September, but it is still hot enough here that any day it drops below 90 degrees Fahrenheit gets a mention on the news. Thus, it is still ice cream season for me. However, I noticed fall flavors are beginning to reappear in a few locations. When I think about ice cream and […]
The Feed Co. Table and Tavern
There is something about a re-purposed space for a restaurant that I love. It is even better when that restaurant offers really good food and friendly service. This is just what The Feed Company Table and Tavern offers. While The Feed Co. Table and Tavern on Main Street in Chattanooga has remodeled the space, the […]
Maple Street Biscuit Company in Chattanooga
An enthusiastic greeting by the staff upon entering the clean, nicely designed restaurant was a good start to having a great early lunch at the Maple Street Biscuit Company in Chattanooga. While the staff and the environment were notable, the food is what really made the experience. I had the bacon, lettuce and tomato biscuit sandwich. […]
Papa Gyro in Huntsville. AL
We had a little trepidation about eating Greek/Middle Eastern food so soon after a bad experience at one of our favorite local Middle Eastern restaurants, but we decided to risk it. After all, we do not get to Huntsville that often. Besides, we were there and we had not eaten lunch and it was getting […]
Clyde’s On Main
We celebrated our anniversary this year a day early by having lunch at Clyde’s on Main in Chattanooga. Although Clyde’s on Main has been open for a year, it was our first time there. It has a friendly, laid back atmosphere with a variety of seating options. The decor is eclectic. It has cocktail tables made from […]
Mrs. B’s Reggae Cafe
I need to apologize to you. I broke the first rule of food blogging: Do not eat before you take pictures. Yes, I confess that once my dinner arrived at Mrs. B’s Reggae Cafe my brain disengaged upon the wonderful aroma hitting my nose and I just started eating. I even totally forgot about my […]
Taco Mamacita
Chattanooga has a variety of restaurants (and a few stands) that sell tacos. Some of the places sell authentic Mexican and/or Tex-Mex tacos. Taco Mamacita’s is not one of them. It does not claim to be. Taco Mamacita’s tacos are more of a creative fusion than the standard offerings. They reflect a variety of flavors […]
Victory Sandwich Bar in Decatur, Georgia
I almost walked past the Victory Sandwich Bar despite having the GPS on my phone active. While it was in part because its subtle signage, it was mostly my getting distracted by of all of the appealing dining options in the couple of blocks we walked from our car. The Victory Sandwich Bar is conveniently […]
