Me and my Bros at Dewigs


  A recent visit to the best Butcher shop in the world. Dewigs of Haubstadt



Another Evansville trip

We have been going to Evansville a lot lately due to some family issues so I have been trying more things there.

Its a local pizza place with thin cracker crust that similar to Una Pizza

its called Sams Pizza

2011 W Delaware St, Evansville, IN 47712 (812) 423-3160

they have Ski too which is a bonus,

I have tried some new items at the Gerst haus

2100 W Franklin St, Evansville, IN 47712 (812) 424-1420

the Lunch Goulash is very good, its a beef and mushroom gravy on speatzle.

my wife gets and Fried Pork tenderloin salad which I help her eat cuz its so good.

Here are a couple of pics from the German Volkfest I forgot to post last year. It is like a Oktoberfest.

this is the PIG KNUCKLE with a Brat.

James is bringing some color to the event

1 day Chattanooga Trip

My first stop was at the Chattanooga Zoo which is small but a nice place to spend a couple of hours.

My first foodie stop was at Niedlov's Breadworks

215 E Main St, Chattanooga, TN 37408 (423) 756-0303

Local made bread with locally sourced meats and cheeses

The chef salad with 2 dressings Cranberry vinaigrette and house vinaigrette (my wife preferred the cranberry)

this was really good.

I got the Reuben on whole wheat. I liked mine too!

We went on to see an Imax nature film then a regular movie at the eco friendly Majestic Carmike theater.

 

Notice the Coke freestyle.

My second stop was less local but still good. Sticky Fingers

420 Broad St Chattanooga, TN (423) 265-7427

They have very good pricing, this is the 9.69 rib plate

I had the Chicken plate for 7.99

The ribs were good and the Chicken was good but a little dry and the side were ok.

 

you want sauce, they have it. Also don't forget to ask for free cornbread muffins.

then on to dessert

We had the peach cobbler, it was rich and juicy not to mention they gave us a large for the small price because it was delayed.

All in All this was a great meal for a great price.

 

Gemeca Inn Fort Branch Indiana

My brother was kind enough to buy me lunch at the fine establishment called Gemeca Inn
located at 802 E. Locust St., Fort Branch, Indiana 47648, 812-753-4441
This place almost feels like home since my mother is from this town. The look of the place is a bit dated but appears to be clean.

We ordered 2 of the Delmonicos which is Gemeca inn’s signature steak

This is a Bacon wrapped sirloin and I forget what the other one was I think a Ribeye or a Strip.

This one reminds me of what my mom used to call a poor mans Filet. its a bacon wrapped hamburger.

and some carrot cake for desert

We all enjoyed the Steaks very much and I would say the sides were just OK. I had the cheese and Broccoli baked potato which is supposed to be another favorite. The sides are charged separately so I expected them to be better. The carrot cake was nothing special either. To sum it up I would say go for the steaks and don't expect much from the sides.
