Archive for Lunch
Foodie Dog Lovers Delight
Those of us who live here far too often write City Market off as just a place for tourists. But if you love to munch and you love your dog (and we know that all dogs love to munch!), then don’t forget! CityMarket’s the place for you and your pooch. From Vinnie Van Go-Go for great pizza to Belford’s for fine upscale dining, to Tapas by Anna and The Cafe at City Market for tasty mid-line fare, you and your 4-pawed pal, can sit back, people-and-dog-watch, and dine al fresco.
The Blue Goose Cafe just opened
Friend of ours just called raving about The Blue Goose Cafe, a new restaurant he’d just tried. Had a Shrimp Po’Boy, he said, made with shrimp just off the boat in Thunderbolt, served with a homemade remoulade sauce. At 41 Whitaker St., formerly home to Sushi Zen, the place is open for breakfast and lunch till 3 pm every day but Sunday, when it’s closed. Starting next Thurs, however, they will open for late-night eats at midnight and stay open till 2 pm next day, every Thurs., Fri., and Sat. , according to owner Henry Sims. With so many late-night clubs in the area, sounds like a winner to us! Great menu, too, ranging from some really upscale eats to downright recession-friendly affordable.
Delicious Savannah Tastes Around Town
Two of our Savannahbest crew came back raving about dishes they had tried at a couple of our long-time favorite eateries. First was agog about the euphoric delight of a mango-passion fruit mousse at Papillote. The other raved about the tuna melt at B. Matthews Eatery, served open faced on focaccia with red onion and cheddar cheese. “By far,” he said, “the most deliciously seasoned tuna salad I’ve ever eaten!” The rest of us will no doubt try those two very soon!
Recession Recipe Challenge Winner
Michele Shuman of Springfield, GA has won WTOC’s Recession Recipe Challenge. She along with two friends will be treated to a lunch at Chef Matt Cohen’s New South Pub at the Mighty Eighth Air Force Museum. Recipes submitted for the challenge involved buying in bulk and creating multiple recipes from the same ingredients. Look for Chef Matt on Tuesday’s show, as he’ll be sharing tips for eating well and saving bucks.
Humus from Thrive!
I’ve eaten humus from coast to coast and all the way to Greece, and no question about it, the best humus I’ve ever eaten came from the Thrive stand at the Trustees Open Market. So good I could hardly believe my taste-buds.
Easter Cruise
Looking for something a little different this Easter? How about an Easter brunch cruise on one of Savannah’s Riverboats? They’ll be offering breakfast and lunch items on the menu, a 1 1/2 hour cruise down the river, a visit from the Easter Bunny, and an egg hunt! Boat boards at 11:30 and returns to port at 1:30pm. Adults $39.95, and children over three $21.95. Call 800-786-6404 for more information.
