A rare Friday when there’s enough afternoon news to warrant a second post.
The Downtown Central BBQ at Butler and St. Martin isn’t open yet, but the Central BBQ food truck was parked outside the new location. People who went there for lunch were told they can expect to see the truck there every Friday until the restaurant opens. The truck will also be at the Memphis Farmers Market every Saturday.
The Hungry Memphis blog has some photos of Aldo’s Pizza Pies. CANNOT WAIT to be in there eating pizza and drinking beer. One minor complaint about the blog’s post: Where’s the pic of the tap wall? I haven’t seen it myself yet, but have been told they will have 20 beers on tap.
I’ve been told that Jack’s Food Store carries those Enchilada flavored Doritos I talked about in my lunchtime post.
If you’re fed up with the way Delta treats Memphians in regard to airfare prices, “Like” the Delta does Memphis Facebook page. Fans of this page are hoping to send a message to Delta that its prices are arbitrary and unfair. It’s sometimes cheaper to drive to Nashville and fly Delta to a destination city with a connection in Memphis than it is to fly Delta directly from Memphis to the destination. The last time I flew them, my company paid the ticket so I have no prices to complain about, but three of the four legs of my flight took off an hour or more late. Delta just sucks, plain and simple.
If you’re still trying to decide what to wear tonight, let this picture be an inspiration:
Another pic from BBQ Fest. It’s cooled off since then, but it’s still warm enough to be tube top weather tonight. Let’s see those tube tops!
