Birmingham

Just wanted to post about a couple of good restaurants in The Magic City of Birmingham, home of my friend, Vulcan.

My favorite is the Silvertron. An excellent mix of of my favorite dishes in a comfortable "at home" environment.

I just found Giuseppe's Cafe before I left, but it is the best Italian in the city in a quaint little restaurant full of tables and chairs just like what your grandmother might have.

But for the best BBQ in the world, you'll have to visit Cullman, Alabama for some Johnny's. Be sure to eat a BBQ Potato for me! If you do stop, be sure to pick up a bottle of their fine sauce and send it my way.

Pics from the trip

2300 miles is certainly a long way, and there's a lot of nothing across I-40.
