🍕 2023 Eating Project...

We're aiming to eat at 26 new restaurants during the year of 2023.

But there's a catch --- it has to be restaurants we've never visited, and we're going from letters A-Z (hopefully in order).

A = Azteca'sB = Big Bad BreakfastC = Catalina RestaurantD = Debris E = El Milagro y Taqueria y PupuseriaF = Front Yard TacosG = Grace on DauphinH = Hammered CowI = coming next week...

You can follow along with the journey here. (more pics!)

We need your help!Where should we go?!?

Please give us your suggestions on Facebook.

We're looking forward to eating our way through Mobile!

We decided to have a bit of fun on a new separate Facebook page (as we think we were confusing some of our readers when we posted some playful stories).

Well, we finally figured out who's been behind all of those funny ALDOT messages!

Please kindly ask folks not to litter... 😇

If you pick up litter while walking around your neighborhood, reply to this email with a picture, and we'll spotlight you!

See ya next week!Be Good & Stay Safe.
