Jackson MS- Soulshine vs Sombra

We went to Soulshine- had a reservation for 20 at 8Pm- we didn't get there until 9- I called to let them know- we had excellent service and pizzas came out quickly- we had our own waiter and were in and out in an hour... all parties gave it a thumbs UP!!

Sunday before Christmas in Birmingham

I would think most places would be closed that night- Dyron's is a good choice too and Ollie Irene in mt Brook but not sure if they are open... Ruths Chris should eb open since it is in embassy Suites- great steaks~~

Moe's wings are the best.... I went to pick up pizza at Yankee last night and some guys sitting at bar said BWW had to quit taking orders for wings last night .... Yankee was almost out of wings too....Pizza was Ok- I prefer it hot out of oven and we let is sit but it was all eaten-no problems.... AND Bama won!!!!

where is the best price for "nice" pizza and best place for wings besided Buffalo Wild wings- looking to have for BCS game - called BWW and 100 wings are $75.... Daughter goes to BSC and they go to Kings Wings and reviews are good but too far out of way since I live in Crestline but they said it was $30 for 100 wings- HMMMM....

Moe's opening Crestline/ Mafiaozo's closing?

I went to Taco Mama yesterday- (same owners as otey's) very good but pricey
didn't ask them but heard from another owner that they heard Moe's was moving into Fire's space

also went to Mafiaozo's recently it was SO packed -I heard they make 5M a year..
