		<title>Ricatoni&#8217;s Italian Grill &#8211; Florence</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My wife and I have a favorite place to eat in Florence, AL called Ricatoni&#8217;s.  We love the location in downtown and the service is always good. 
There are only a few items I&#8217;ve had off the menu, but here are the pros:
-fresh bread with herbs and olive oil
-pizzas cooked in wood-burning oven
-chicken fingers (tenders) with [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Ricatoni&#8217;s Italian Grill &#8211; Florence", url: "http://www.thadforester.com/2010/07/04/ricatonis-italian-grill-florence/" });</script>]]></description>

		<title>Jim &#8216;N Nick&#8217;s Bar-B-Q</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For some reason I&#8217;ve never eaten at Jim &#8216;N Nick&#8217;s until this past weekend, and glad I finally did. 
The good:
1. they serve cheese biscuits with honey butter
2. they have regular and spicy sauce on the table
3. they have homemade lemonade and onion rings
I got the pulled pork sandwich with potato salad and Rozlynn got the ribs and onion rings.  [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Jim &#8216;N Nick&#8217;s Bar-B-Q", url: "http://www.thadforester.com/2010/06/01/jim-n-nicks-bar-b-q/" });</script>]]></description>

		<title>Chick-fil-A</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Anyone that knows me and Mark, knows that we love Chick-fil-A.  And now Rozlynn has become a fan.  Here are the reasons we love it:
1. The service is fantastic.  All Chick-fil-A&#8217;s have a very effective screening process for hiring.  I&#8217;m convince no matter which location you&#8217;re at, the service will be very good.  They even [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Chick-fil-A", url: "http://www.thadforester.com/2010/04/10/chick-fil-a/" });</script>]]></description>

		<title>Moe&#8217;s Original BBQ &#8211; Tuscaloosa</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
We read about Moe&#8217;s coming to town a few months ago and looked forward to trying it out.  I appreciated the story of the guys taking their bbq skills out to Colorado and living for several years, and now bringing it back to Alabama.  The location downtown seems good and we really liked the atmosphere&#8211;plenty of [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Moe&#8217;s Original BBQ &#8211; Tuscaloosa", url: "http://www.thadforester.com/2010/03/19/moes-original-bbq-tuscaloosa/" });</script>]]></description>

		<title>Bob Baumhower&#8217;s Wings</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I became a fan of hot wings when I started school in Tuscaloosa back in &#8216;98.  I tried several places and decided my favorite wings were at Wing Zone and Baumhower&#8217;s Wings. 
Rozlynn, on the other hand, had only heard of this wing craze since living here.  I finally took her to Wings a few weeks [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Bob Baumhower&#8217;s Wings", url: "http://www.thadforester.com/2010/03/02/restaurant-review-bob-baumhowers-wings/" });</script>]]></description>

		<title>The Oasis</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
Just off highway 11 in Cottondale is a little joint called The Oasis.  You&#8217;d never guess it, but they have the best burgers in town.  Better than Five Guys, Hooligans, and Mugshots.  They advertise &#8220;the best cheeseburger in town&#8230; Cottondale, that is.&#8221; 
If you want a good, greasy burger, and don&#8217;t care how you smell when [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "The Oasis", url: "http://www.thadforester.com/2010/02/11/the-oasis/" });</script>]]></description>

		<title>Restaurant Review: Pat&#8217;s BBQ, Salt Lake City, UT</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Location is great&#8211;not in a great part of town (which I love).  It is clean, but most importantly the meat and sauce are good. 
I had the burnt ends, with potato salad and cornbread.  All were very good.  The ribs are not as good as Dreamland, but okay.  Ironically, our server has a grandmother from Bessemer, [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Restaurant Review: Pat&#8217;s BBQ, Salt Lake City, UT", url: "http://www.thadforester.com/2010/01/12/restaurant-review-pats-bbq-salt-lake-city-ut/" });</script>]]></description>

		<title>Restaurant Review: Firebird&#8217;s Grill</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ate here for the second time last week in Hoover.  Rozlynn and I loved it.  We started off with Ranch Rings, which are nothing more than onion rings with extra good ranch dipping sauce.  They also serve bread as an appetizer. 
For my entree I got the Aspen Sirloin and it had great flavor.  The mashed [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Restaurant Review: Firebird&#8217;s Grill", url: "http://www.thadforester.com/2009/12/21/restaurant-review-firebirds-grill/" });</script>]]></description>

		<title>Restaurant Review: Yogurt Mountain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a new place in Tuscaloosa that I like for dessert.  It has a great concept&#8211;choose between many different flavors of yogurt and all the topings you&#8217;d want, get as much as you want and pay by the ounce.  All the cups are the same size. 
The toppings bar has all kinds of cereals, candy, [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Restaurant Review: Yogurt Mountain", url: "http://www.thadforester.com/2009/12/02/restaurant-review-yogurt-mountain/" });</script>]]></description>

		<title>Restaurant Review: The Pigg Shack</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a relatively new bbq joint in Tuscaloosa.  I was introduced to it by Chris Sprayberry and have now proclaimed it the best bbq in Tuscaloosa, besides Big Bad Wolves, of course.  Mark says the same thing.  Rozlynn still says the original Dreamland is the best, which is legitimate argument.
Location:  Just off Hwy 69 [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Restaurant Review: The Pigg Shack", url: "http://www.thadforester.com/2009/11/25/restaurant-review-the-pigg-shack/" });</script>]]></description>
