Fat Mo's Burgers - Nashville, TN

Thanks once again to George Motz for the tip on this one - there are several of these stands around Nashville, but I'd never made it to one before. The burger tasted just like the ones I used to get at the Middle Eastern delis while in college in Knoxville, TN (i.e. there's some weird spice mix in there that I can't quite place).

Dai Due Sausage - Austin, TX

Thanks to Ben & Eliza for turning us on to this sausage from Austin...maybe the best breakfast sausage ever? We cooked up some biscuits and a breakfast casserole at the office this morning...

Chicken & Dumplings

Yet another post about Carver's Country Kitchen...today was the first time I've tried the chicken and dumplings. You could almost call it chicken and stuffing...either way, it was top-notch, as usual...

The Pecan Log Roll

From the Stuckey's in Winchester, TN - these are not quite as good as I remembered them being, but it seems that the package hasn't changed since I last ate one about 30 years ago - check out that lettering!

Tacos Mariscos Lopez Truck - Nashville, TN

I believe this truck is related to the brick-and mortar Lopez Taqueria location on Nolensville Road in Nashville...my car involuntarily pulls itself over here when I see the guy out front manning the grill loaded up with chickens...

jail...got a bonus candy cane for my trouble...

Grouper Throats

You have to love a market that's selling every part of the fish - I've never cooked a grouper throat, but these look pretty meaty, and at $1.50 a pound, I'd say it's worth a shot. Spotted at 13 Mile Seafood Market, Apalachicola, Florida.
