DISHES TO TRY HOMEMADE ICE CREAM
FOOD & DRINK
Burnette Farms in PELHAM is full of farm-fresh produce and uses it for its hand-turned ice cream. They serve up your standard vanilla or chocolate, or you can venture outside the box with cantaloupe, banana pudding, buttermilk, even dill pickle and silver queen corn. They also serve ice cream atop cobbler and in larger sizes to-go.
FINE DINING TO-GO Chef James Washington was schooled under culinary A-listers Frank Stitt, Wolfgang Puck, Chris Hastings and Dean Fearing, and now you can try his take on soul food with a fine dining makeover, served in a to-go box at Refined To Go in HELENA. The menu is always changing, but you’re likely to always find a fish dish plus plenty of comforting sides.
A TASTE OF CAJUN COUNTRY Plenty of folks from outside Shelby County have brought the flavors they grew up with elsewhere with them to new eateries. Louisiana natives the Donovan family offer Cajun dishes like the classic fried shrimp boy at the aptly named Cajun Boys and Our Po Boys at locations in PELHAM, CHELSEA and CALDWELL MILL ROAD.
BRUNCH FAVORITES The owners of Helena’s former Beignets and Lattes have opened a new brunch-centered restaurant in ALABASTER. Azalea’s will serve brunch favorites, plus lunch and dinner plates. Fans of Beignets and Lattes will be happy to know the beignets are making the move, too.
