Po' Boys had its 19th annual Crawfish Festival a couple of weekends ago. If you didn't go, you missed out on some delicious Creole food and music, but it's not the end of the world. Tallahassee has some great spots to get some Cajun/Creole food any day of the week.
More...This year so far has been exciting for beer and cider enthusiasts around the All Saints district. Late January marked the opening of Tallahassee's premier cider bar "Cider Lodge". It's an offshoot of Fermentation Lounge's already robust menu of tasty beverages, but the lodge aims to offer a slightly different environment.
More...I love trying new Latin restaurants, but if I’m not in the mood for Mexican food, the choices are quite limited. Ranging from authentic Mexican restaurants like Morelia’s and Los Amigos, to franchises like Moe’s and Taco Bell, Mexican cuisine is well represented all across Tallahassee. The only Non-Mexican restaurants that come to mind are Black Bean Café (Cuban), Super Perros (Colombian) and Gordos (Cuban). In Tallahassee’s Latin food realm it seems like Mexican is king and Cuban is a distant second.
More...A new Vietnamese restaurant opened up in Tallahassee and it's receiving quite a bit of attention. Pho 7 came into existence to fill the demands of Tallahassee pho (pronounced "fuh") lovers. Pho, a traditional Vietnamese noodle soup is known for its flavorful broth that both entices olfactory nerves and pleases the palate.

I've been staving off the cold bones with hot teas and coffee, but at night, my sweet tooth gets the best of me. It drives me to venture into the elements to secure a frozen delight.

Along with countless of other Americans, I made the choice of making my New Year's Resolution affect the way I eat. It's time to be more conscious of what I put in my belly. The plan is to have less meat and carbohydrates in my diet, and have more vegetables. Hopefully I will be able to outlast my belly's desire for a late night fast food run. Historically, the cards are stacked against me.
More...As the temperature in Tallahassee drops slightly below a comfortable chill, only one remedy comes to mind that can stave off the cold. Forget stopping by CVS for some Theraflu, what you need is a heaping helping of some barbecue. With that first nip of the early morning air, I already know what to get to nurture my frozen bones--a saucy pulled pork sandwich.
More...I had first heard about Birds a few years back when my friend had invited me to see him do standup comedy. He's a funny guy, so I figured he'd have some good laughs. He promised that he had a funny set and that they had cheap Yuengling on tap. Cheap beer and some laughs? A pretty hard combination to pass up on a Wednesday night.
