+WebChimp Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 (edited) Howdy, So, let's say a couple of out-of-town cachers dropped in to hunt Tuscaloosa or Birmingham... Where would you send them to eat lunch? Not a chain joint, but what good, local lunch spot would you pick? Just wondering out loud.... Edited March 12, 2007 by WebChimp Quote Link to comment
+ZSandmann Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Tuscaloosa: My birthplace Dreamland BBQ City Cafe in Northport (Awesome southern breakfast) Taco Casa (Chain but only in TTown) 15th Street Diner Cypress Inn (Mmmmm white BBQ sauce) Baumhower's Sports Wings I'm sure there are a lot more but those are my top picks.

What about Birmingham? (Don't mention Breckinridge Brewery; experienced bad juju there.) Edited March 12, 2007 by WebChimp Quote Link to comment
+ZSandmann Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Don't go to BHam much. and usually when I do we eat at PF Changs Quote Link to comment
+Monkeybrad Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Birmingham has a Dreamland as well, just as good as the Tuscaloosa original. That is where we always stop for dinner when caching in BHam. Quote Link to comment
+Pudman Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 (edited) I work in B'ham and eat here regularly: Ted's Cafeteria for a meat & 3 type lunch: right off the 4th ave S exit off I65South. The Fish Market on Southside is GREAT, if you like seafood. Need any more info, shoot me an email! Edited March 13, 2007 by Pudman Quote Link to comment
+MikeGolfJ3 Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 I grew in B'ham but haven't gotten back lately. Is Ollie's still open? It was awesome!!! Quote Link to comment

There's an Alabama section with some recommendation from a locally famous guy. Quote Link to comment

I tried your forums and now am blocked, apparently if Webchimp does not want you to play, you don't, but hey, as they say it is his sandbox ...
