Hey ff12!!!
You need to find out that SD Firefighter Hushpuppy recipe and post it over on the recipe exchange!!! I don't think it would stop anyone from buyin' that yummy food from the firefighters and my hushpuppies would no longer taste like cornmeal!!!!

Gosh Ya'll, you're missing the obvious when it comes to great hushpuppies.
If you want the very best hushpuppies you will ever put in your mouth, then get Thee over to Oak Ridge to the Old Mill of Guilford and buy some of their homemade hushpuppy mix (and remember it is stone ground right there at the oldest continuously operating water mill in America since 1767). The recipe is included with the mix and this stuff is the nectar for the Gods. Yummy. And easy too!
Plus you'll never meet any nicer people than Charlie Parnell and his lovely wife Heidi. Tell 'em I sent you!
You can't have great hushpuppies unless you start with great hushpuppy mix and this is the best in all of America and at least 10 or 15 state and county fairs.
You can also visit their website at http://www.oldmillofguilford.com/

El Maguey in Walkertown , may have mentioned it before but worth a second mention, pork with green chili sauce, seafood entrees, just about anything you could want.

Say, ff12, someone has mentioned that restaurant before -- don't know if it was you or not. Sounds as though we might want to make a trip to check it out! Where is it in Walkertown? I know to go up 158 towards W-S, and know where Hwy 66/Old Hollow Road crosses it. Is it right there, or do you turn right there? Thanks! Always in the mood for good Mexican food!  ♥♥♥

Not sure what you consider "expensive", but in my opinion, it's a moderately priced restaurant with good food.

DToney - We love Village Tavern! Eat on the patio when the weather is nice- best outdoor dining in Greensboro.
You can see their menu at http://www.villagetavern.com I don't think it shows prices but my favorite dish is Chicken Colorado and I think it's $10.95 or so. Sandwiches are around $6-8 and come with a side.(they have wonderful potato salad!) Fish and beef are probably $17-25. EVERYTHING on the menu is good!

| I have 2 other favorites in that price range- Lucky 32 and Green Valley Grill. They also have very good service, excellent food and at Green Valley wonderful music. If You haven't been to them check them out. They are owned by the same people with very different menus that change about every 6 weeks or so. they buy lots of local food and Steve Tate with Goat Lady is the cheese buyer? for Green Valley so lots of fresh Goat lady cheese on the menu. Its hard to go wrong with either Village, Green Valley or Lucky 32.

So, Jane -- Are all 3 of those restaurants owned by the same folks, or just Lucky 32 and Green Valley Grill? I like that they buy locally.... Have never eaten at Green Valley. Sounds like we need to try it!!♥♥♥
BTW: Are your fingers still blue today??

Just Green Valley and Lucky 32 owned by the same people. We eat at Green Valley a lot on Saturday for lunch. One of my daughters favorite restaurants.
Fingers are fairly back to natural color today thank you. Hopefully I will be able to keep the cake frozen and covered enough in the freezer to have the rest of it at the next council meeting.
