Guess Who's Back....

So I'm honestly surprised my blog hasn't been cancelled because apparently it's been almost TWO YEARS since I've had a post! I really decreased my foodie restaurant visits and that's something I definitely regret. I'm going to try to get started again.

I moved from Charlotte to Chattanooga in September and so I have a whole new city of restaurants to conquer! Before I left, I visited Fran's (of course) one more time and ate the bread pudding (also of course):

My favorite

The last restaurant on my list to be completed was Good Food on Montford. I went with Natalie, a friend from church. Good Food has a number of small plates that you share instead of larger entrees with sides and all that jazz. The dish listed on the 100 best list was the steamed pork bun:

Deliciousness between 2 pillows
This dish is more Asian-inspired. The pork belly is spiced with Asian spices and served with pickled vegetables on a steamed bun. I would have honestly been happy to just eat a bunch of those and nothing else (although everything else was good). The bun was so soft but not doughy, and the pork was spiced so well. The vegetables added a little crunch. I guess serving a smaller portion just leaves you with a really good experience and you can't get tired of it.....

And thus concludes my dinners in Charlotte (insert sad face here). My plan for Chattanooga is to visit as many great restaurants as I can (as money and time allow) and maybe make my OWN Top 100 list.

Until next time!!
