I live in Birmingham and I think you did a great job of getting our local flavor. Chef Stitt is king in my book but Chris Hastings at Hot and Hot Fish club also does a fabulous job. Cafe Dupont, downtown, is also adept at presenting local produce and quality ingredients together for some stunning meals. There is a lot of good bbq in town, beauty is in the eye of the beholder! It is good to see someone leave with a favorable impression of our culinary landscape. As I travel I compare everything to Highlands and I am amazed how well it holds up. Thanks for an entertaining and well written report.
