Some interesting dishes from down sowth

We had to travel down to Mississippi earlier in June for a family emergency.  While there, we made the most of it, food wise; I had some extraordinary meals there, here is a montage of them.

 Abeba - Ethiopian restaurant in Jackson, MS - I got the vegetarian sampler plate, seen here.  Had never had Ethiopian before - I found it akin to Indian food in its spice and scope.  I would like to try it again.

Steak and potato at the Lone Star, with my in-laws; fantastic people, fantastic dinner.  I don't eat steaks very often, but sometimes, you know the time is right.

At Bravo's in Jackson, MS - I had a pizza with goat cheese, prosciutto and arugula on top - this was for Father's Day with my father-in-law; we had such a lovely time.  This scrumptious pizza was top notch - and they made it for me with whole wheat pizza dough.

This frothy margarita was at El Potrillo in Flowood, MS.  I wanted to just dive right in.  It was apertif, refreshment and dessert all in one.

My veggie sandwich with caesar salad at the outstanding Broad Street Bakery in Jackson, MS.  Just the perfect sized lunch, and everything was fresh.  Outstanding.

My father-in-law's cappuccino brownie dessert for Father's Day.  I should've gotten that.  He kindly let me mooch a few spoons of this; next time I will insist on a special trip to Bravo's JUST for this rich fudgey treat. 

My Chez B's omelette at Another Broken Egg in Ridgeland, MS.  This is how to do a big brunch.  We are trying to make this place a goal every time we're in the area now.  This had feta cheese and a basil chiffonade; the waiter didn't know how to describe it, but it was basically chopped basil strewn over and within the omelette; it was one of those meals where you say, "I'm going to do this when I get home".

I have more pictures to post, will do so soon.
