Still in Tuscaloosa. I haven't been the selector of restaurants with the exception of a late dinner Friday night with friends. We wanted to eat close to where we were staying, so we ate at Chuck's Fish which was very good. It was pretty hard watching the AL/FL game in Alabama land.

Had a quick burger at Mugshots watching the Saints game. And, i mean quick. Those burgers came right out dry as a bone. They'd obviously been sitting under a heat element awaiting our arrival. Ate at a Japanese joint called Kobe, I think. Some food was okay. Some not so much.

Seeing the tornado damage reminds me of Katrina, but lots of work appears to have been done and more to come. We're staying at a cute free standing 2 BR apt right on the edge of the path. The property had a good bit of tree damage and damage to the house and apt. All repaired though. First time I've seen tornado damage. Looking at the path is strange.

I don't quite understand the love for Mugshots. Nice looking location but meh on the food. I've heard really good things about Ephiphanys which is very close to Mugshots. Try Depalma's which is on the same block as the RBC Bank building (tallest downtown building). Pretty solid Italian food. Make sure to either go to Kozys or Evangelines for a nicer meal before you leave.

As for the tornado, in some ways it almost looks worse now with all the clean up. The entire affected stretch of 15th Street just looks really weird with the complete lack of any buildings at all not to mention all the large pieces of destroyed homes still in the small lake.
