will do! Place sounds pretty great. Right near where I'll be in Jackson too.

if you're going to be in the area, a few recs in addition to pig & pint:

1. go to apothecary (in the back of brent's drugs--there is no sign). it is a speakeasy bar with fantastic drinks. mixologists there are amazing. sit up at the bar and enjoy

2. I'm a fan of babalu. get the tableside guac and burger. good drinks there too

3. saltine is a new oyster bar. it has a nice beer selection and food is decent (disclosure: I've only been once and it was shortly after opening. oysters were small and expensive but tasty).

4. fondren public is a fun beer bar tucked in the corner behind cups. they have shuffleboard, corn hole, etc. decent bar food such as sliders, etc

these are all within a block from one another.

ALL OF THIS. I've been to Saltine twice -Craig's Oyster Stew is so good. Also the PB&J is very interesting...like a flavor explosion in your mouth. Drinks are done right too.
