Just a little Southern Hospitality

IMG_9878

You can always find a good barbecue place in NYC.  One that happens to be a pretty good choice in my opinion is Southern Hospitality.  Part owner, Justin Timberlake, brings his Southern roots to the heart of New York City with Memphis-style ribs, pulled pork, and the southern fried classics. I’ve visited for both brunch and diner and the food is always on point.  This particular visit I tried the brisket sandwich topped with fried onions and a sweet BBQ sauce.  All sandwiches are accompanied with a pickle and fries but the fries can be substituted of course. To balance it out, I normally try to add I side salad which was a great combination with this sandwich.  When someone tags along, I also try whatever they have and this time it was the infamous chicken and waffles. The cornbread waffles were cooked to perfection and the chicken was very flavorful as well.  Just the right amount of crisp with each bite.  Seeing that I am from the south myself, I love venturing off and finding places like these. Their take on Southern classics here are very good to say the least.  If you’re ever in the Times Square area and want to have some authentic Southern bbq with undeniable Southern hospitality, give them a try.

Who loves Dallas? Dallas BBQ that is

I absolutely love love love Dallas BBQ.  This was one of the first restaurants I went to in Times Square after moving to NYC and it never disappoints.  I’m not sure if they are more famous for their frozen drink concoctions or the actual food.  Either way, I always seem to indulge in both.  I decided to venture here over the weekend and have the infamous sticky wings and a drink of course.  I can say that the sauce used for the wings is absolutely amazing and the fries are always a good side to compliment the wings.  For the drink, I went with a new one called ‘beach bomb’.  Perfect for a mental getaway seeing that NY weather is still pretty cold.  The drink consisted of pina colada, pineapple and blue Hawaiian all mixed, which together created quite the drink if I say so myself.  There are several locations for Dallas BBQ and this was my first time dining at the Livingston Street location.  Overall, great food and service.  The music videos that played from the early 2000s genre til present-day and mini cupcakes they give you towards the end of your meal were a nice touch too.  Check out more pics below.
