Side Porch Steak House: It's What's For Dinner

Side Porch Steak House has been purchased and is temporarily closed for a remodel. We'll let you know when it reopens!

I know where you're going for dinner this weekend, and it's the Side Porch Steak House in Bartlett. A few weeks ago, I needed a change from fancy tapas and cocktails made of unicorn tears (as much as I adore both of those things, variety is the spice of life, etc.) My friends Kendyl and Gardner recommended Side Porch Steak House in Bartlett.

Zam Zamz Mediterranean Grill is Kind of a Miracle

If you didn't know to look for Zam Zamz Mediterranean Grill, you might not find it. The restaurant, with its unassuming facade, is in a shopping center in front of a shopping center across from a shopping center near Winchester and Bill Morris Parkway. Why is it a miracle? First, it's unusual that a family-owned restaurant would be hidden amongst a Wingstop, Genghis Grill, Cheddar's, and an Olive Garden (the TGIFridays and Logan's Roadhouse are across the street).

Cocktails and Snacks at Mollie Fontaine Lounge (Closed)

A few weeks ago, I went to Mollie Fontaine Lounge for early dinner-and-drinks with my friend Allie. Even though it's been around for years, I realized I'd never tried the food at Mollie Fontaine Lounge, which is owned by Memphis Chef Karen Carrier. The place: Mollie Fontaine Lounge is in an historic Victorian house in the Edge neighbhorhood.
