Memphis

Whenever I am in Orange County and not craving Mexican Food (in which case I go to Taco Mesa because it rules) I try and make it to Memphis. It is delicious, with a cool vibe, and a southern twang to the menu. I intended to get a big salad or sandwich, but when I walked in recently on a chilly Saturday afternoon, the gumbo was calling my name. It was the kind with seafood and okra, different than the one I make.

I love this restaurant, and if it were closer to me, I would be a regular. You'd hear them shout my name when I walked through the door, a la Norm on Cheers.
