Re: “An A for E's Bistro”
I'm going to have to try this crab cake out to see if it's really legit. From the photo, it appears to be the typical southern take on a MD specialty. I've been wanting to try E's out but I'm rarely in that part of NLR.
Re: “Food Feedback Friday: dumplings, buns, and benedicts”
Wow, had a great week of local food treasures. I enjoyed the shrimp and fried fish tacos at Local Lime. The zucchini salsa is one of the best salsa's I've ever eaten. The Mexican Shrimp Cocktail was also excellent. I had the pleasure of having the Southern Gourmasian Pork Torchon special at SOMA last night. Those guys are real perfection on that truck. From the pickled radishes to the white bean stew and of course the slow roasted pork shoulder that was melt in your mouth good. A great dish from top to bottom literally. We also had two pizza's from the crew at Santa Lucia pizza truck. Overall the taste and crust are perfection but I have a bone to pick with the lack of ample toppings. We tried the special Ark. strawberry, goat cheese and balsamic vinegar pizza and for $12 I expected more. There were literally about six slices of strawberries and a scattering of goat cheese. If they would increase the toppings on the pizza it would be an A+ pie, but for now it's B+. We also tried Slim Chicken's and it was OK. I had chicken tenders and fries, nothing great, but good. Need to go back and try their wings. It's your basic chicken strip and wing joint.
Re: “Food Feedback Friday: getting out and coming up”
I had the Mexican Shrimp Cocktail at Local Lime and it was spectacular with cooked perfectly jumbo shrimp with a spicy sauce with fresh avocado, corn and jalapenos. I could have eaten about 12 shrimp with that sauce. I tried the battered fish and shrimp taco all great fresh food. On top of all the great food they had $3.77 House margarita's at Happy Hour on Sunday, can't beat that.
Re: “Good grub at Hardin's”
They have some really great Cranberry Pecan Chicken Salad available in the deli case there. Love that place!

Re: “Food Feedback Friday: the popping out of Pulaski edition”
We love Ermillio's Italian in Eureka Springs. Usually hit CJ's Burgers in Russellvile when near there, they have some of freshest tasting quality burgers you will find in AR. Michaelangelos & Mike's Place in Conway are both solid choices for a good meal. I discovered a Mexican Homestyle restaurant in Atkins called the Atkins International Cafe. The shrimp, chicken and beef fajitas I had were awesome and my dining partners had really good burgers there as well. They apparently are know for Mexican and NY Deli style Reuben's, crazy combo! It's definitely a must try if you find yourself in the Atkins/Russellville area. In Hot Springs we really love Rolando's. Great latin/SA food and nice atmosphere.

Re: “This weekend: Intl. Greek Food Festival”
Just went and had fabulous pastitio, spanikopta, Greek salad and gyros. Great food and fun as always. Of course I left with a bag Greek pastries, cookies and baklava. We really need a real Greek restaurant in Little Rock.
