If you’ve been around for awhile you know that we visit Chattanooga quite often. We hardly ever do the same things other than get ice cream at Clumpie’s LOL! There is so much to do and explore there. We did a quick weekend trip in May. We went on Friday night after work and came…

De Nada – Birmingham, AL
We recently tried a new upscale-casual Mexican restaurant on 2nd Avenue South in downtown Birmingham called De Nada. It is in what is called the Parkside District. It is a block from the Birmingham Barons baseball stadium. They just opened April 29. They have a paid parking lot on the same block and street parking…
Brick & Tin
We’ve seen Brick & Tin around and on Yelp in recent searches but we had not visited. A new one recently opened in Cahaba Heights so we decided to give it a try. Unfortunatly it was not a good experience. We thought that it was a sit down type restaurant, but it is not. You…
Burning Tree Smokehouse
We recently went from Irondale through Avondale into downtown Birmingham. Along the way we passed the Burning Tree Smokehouse on 3rd Avenue South near Pepper Place. We added it to our list of places to try. We had a rare weekend home, seems that lately our weekends are for traveling. We decided to have lunch…
Dahlonega, GA
I have heard that Dahlonega, GA is a really cool place to see around Christmas and that some of the Hallmark Christmas movies have been filmed there. I had mentioned to Jeff that I’d like to visit there at Christmas. He got to researching and found that there were several things to do and decides…

They use local farm fresh ingredients. It is named after the owners dog and originally started in…
The Rocket City – Huntsville, AL
For Jeff’s birthday this year, we decided to plan a quick weekend getaway. It was a milestone birthday and needed to be celebrated! So we looked at our usual go-to Chattanooga, but just wasn’t feeling it for this trip. We looked at a local B&B but they didn’t have availability for the dates. Did I…
Condado Tacos-Tequila-Margaritas
We have a new restaurant on Highway 280 in the Mountain Brook area called Condado Tacos.Tequila.Margaritas. We decided to meet there one night after work. This is the only one in Alabama. It is a chain and they have 39 locations in several states. The restaurant wall decor is not like any other restaurant in…
Porch
We decided to meet for dinner after work a couple of weeks ago. We weren’t sure where we wanted to go, so we turned to Yelp. We both did some searching and made recommendations to each other and we decided to go with Porch in Crestline Village. After we arrived, Jeff admitted that he had…
