I’m always constantly bragging about Decatur’s amazing restaurants to non-Decaturites. I love eating out in this town and I sign up for every restaurant e-news list. So, here are a couple local restaurant tidbits I’ve received this week:
Farm Burger is encouraging everyone to do a little summer reading by checking out their blog. Why add one more blog to your reader? Because Farm Burger will be posting about its harvest, discussing the differences between omega 3s and 6s, announcing when their piggies are born on their farm and other general FB happenings. I’ve already added their blog to my summer reading list and just hope they add a comments function to their blog so I can tell them how much they rock.
July is National Bison Month (who knew!?) and Ted’s Montana Grill is celebrating with its introduction of Bison Nachos (picture above), the new Red Rock Burger (covered with grated pepper jack cheese, fresh-diced jalapenos, chopped cilantro and friend onion straws) and Ted’s is bringing back “Eat Great for $8.” The return of the $8 lunch entrees include Caesar Salad with Grilled Chicken, Pulled BBQ Chicken Sandwich, Bowl of Soup and Half Chopped Salad, Meatloaf Sandwich and Delicious Duo.
Parker’s has some great daily specials: Prime Rib every Sunday, 3 course prix fixe dinner for $25 on Mondays, half price draft beer on Tuesdays, half price bottled wine on Wednesdays, lunch 3 course prix fixe meal for $13 every Monday through Friday and half price appetizers at the bar from 4 to 7 p.m. every Sunday through Thursday.
So the real question is, what are you in the mood for today? Burger? Bison? or Steak?
To add to Catherine’s restaurant entry, Farmstead 303 is now serving the corn they are growing right behind the historic depot. They are also growing their own squash and tomatoes. I love reading the chalkboard and finding out where their local sources are for produce, milk, eggs, and meat. It can’t be anymore local than in their own backyard!
Love this site!
