    I don’t know if I’d expect anything less than organic, preservative free sauce from America’s premier boutique hamburger chain.

    Went to one of my friends houses to go into his basement at 845pm when it looked like we were in the path. First time I had seen anyone I knew in 30 days.

    might be blasphemous around here but I love Milos honey mustard. I went to get chicken today and I was given some generic kens steakhouse honey mustard and I was appalled.

    If we’re creating lists in the same vein as the ones above, I’m going:

    Bottega
    Back 40 (I don’t really do bars these days)

    Including McWane center was basically breaking the kneecaps of every other institution in that group. Think it’d be more interesting if breweries were included and McWane center was subbed for, just for kicks, the indoor cart racing place

    Bogue’s

    Can I do Bogue’s just for the breakfast? Is that cheating?

    Mayawell is very cool, but menu cocktails more focused on tequila/mezcal. They have 1-2 cocktails that are more crowd pleasing and have a full bar/beer selection. The food truck that hangs out back is pretty good too.

    I forgot he was involved in that. My wife is VERY distantly related to him. I’m not sure she’s ever even met him. I’d love to hear more about him...

    Also, everything you said about Back 40 is spot on.

    i won't get into some of the personal reasons on a message board that has other lurking brookies, but this also suffices for why i find him a gaping asshole

    obviously it's impossible to fully avoid patronizing businesses in bham with right wing dickheads as owners/financial backers, but i like to at least try

    Hell yes Spagett. I thought i was the only one who hit up that Wings Plus 3. That’s my go to wings stop and definitely one of my fatty meals. I’ll quickly cash my 10 piece and then the 4-5 wings my wife can’t eat from hers.

    IDK but I did this last night IRL after my friend's bonfire with a special order Whataburger w/bacon and creamy pepper sauce PLUS Breakfast Burger and tots.

    Also RE: donuts...you gotta go to Pops Donuts in Center Point. Best in town bar none. In a ghetto ass place. Dirt cheap, too. You won't regret it. Just go when you get your next payday loan (sorry probably too soon)
