Dining With Locals

 

Over the years I have generated a mile long list of all of your restaurant recommendations. My goal is to avidly get to them all. It's always fascinating to hear about your experiences. Dining With Locals is a feature that allows locals & small business owners to give us the scoop on their favorite places around town. 

 

NAME: Abigail Witthauer

Career: Certified Canine Behavior Consultant, Owner of RoverChase LLC

Favorite Restaurant & Dish: "Of all the places I’ve eaten in the last year, I can’t stop thinking are both Automatic Seafood and Dread River. The place I go back to over and over again because it’s my favorite is Surin 280. My faves: The Super Crunch Roll, coconut soup, crab angels & lychee martini."

Visit Roverchase.com or www.theRoverchasefoundation.org for more information about Abigail's work & her non-profit organization. 

NAME: Mike King

Career: Certified Senior Product Specialist & Sales Rep at Edwards Chevrolet Downtown Birmingham

Favorite Restaurant & Dish: "The dealership keeps me pretty busy, but when I have the chance, I love a good meat & three restaurant. Jasmine's Cafe in Pratt City never misses. I can't pick a favorite dish because I love their entire menu and the opportunity to support a small business as much as possible. If you're looking for good home cooking on-the go, Jasmine's has a very diverse menu especially if you like country cooking." 

Shopping for a vehicle? Check out Edwards Chevrolet downtown & ask for Mike.

NAME: Nikki Frank

Career: 10-year-old student, entrepreneur & philanthropist 

 Owner of Nikki Frank Avenue

Favorite Restaurant & Dish: "I really like seafood! Especially sushi & clams. But I love when my mom takes us to Speedy's Mexican Restaurant in Hueytown. The giant taco salad is my favorite!"
