When we find a menu item that is so good, and so exciting, and so worth writing about, and so sleep depriving (because we are so excited about it), we like to write about those items in a column called The DISH. This edition of The DISH is such a good one. We found it [...]
After a beyond fantastic dinner with my husband at NICK’S Restaurant in Fondren recently, I have two very, very important words to share with you: TASTING MENU. These two important words only apply if you are eating at NICK’S, but they are so powerful that I’m surprised more restaurants in the area don’t do something [...]
Date Night Fine Dining Jackson Supper
This day in age, it’s not a normal thing for me to be able to say that something was better than advertised. Rarely do things actually live up to the hype surrounding them. I think we can all agree that we have to take most advertising promises with a grain of salt…. But when I [...]

Date Night Fine Dining Madison Supper The Dish
