Flat Iron Steak - Culinard Cafe

This is the Flat Iron Steak sandwich at the Culinard Cafe in the Innovation Depot (Birmingham, AL).

Delicious steak, goat cheese, mustard, red onion, and chili aioli. Served with sweet potato fries. Yum!

Steak and Blue Cheese Quesadilla

I had this tasty quesadilla at La Paz in Mountain Brook, AL.

BurgerQuest - Surf'N'Turf Burger

From Joe's Crab Shack:

Thick beef patty, crispy onion straws, popcorn shrimp, and fixings... Big honking' burger.

No special orders and a side of fries. In accordance with the BurgerQuest manifesto, beer was not an option so I washed it down with water.

Gator N' Grits

Today, the usual Monday lunch crew was treated to a meal at Zea. We found an intriguing item on the special menu: Gator N' Grits. Being in an adventurous mood, I ordered it and a side. In keep with the seemingly Cajun theme, I ordered the Red Beans and Rice. Let me say, I was not disappointed. The Gator was tender and flavorful. The roasted corn grits were amazing (as always). Combined with the etouffe sauce and the red beans and rice, this was a spectacular meal. You owe it to yourself to try this out while it lasts!
