Westside...



Sorry for the radio silence.... Traveling has been light these days.

We headed up to Westside Bar-b-que, New Albany, MS on a game day. We avoided the massive crowds in Oxford and had an excellent lunch. The pulled pork barbeque was very good. I love a nice and simple barbeque sandwich. The slaw was a bit bland but that might be my personal taste. I am from Decatur Alabama, and my hometown bbq sandwich features a vinegary slaw that has a bit more kick.

The real showstopper is the desserts. Yum! My mother and I had the strawberry cake which was pink and luscious. My dad had the caramel cake.  He is a connoisseur and declared it was excellent. He now wants me to pick up a cake ($28) on my way home.

As an artist, I really enjoy the pig theme decorations. From the dancing pig mural to the pig collectible display cabinet, the effect is over the top, awesome, and only slightly disturbing.

Thanks Mamma for the photos!
