A little dinner road trip to Utica, IL

T-bird and I went here last night for dinner.

Excellent stuff!

I had some gumbo to start with and then had a platter with alligator, frog legs, and crawdad tails. Had a hurricane as soon as we got there and switched to a Louisiana amber beer to drink with the meal. Everything that our table had was not hot in the least (I was looking forward to some heat), but there was some house seasoning on the table called hot damn and some sweet heat sauce that was pretty decent as well as the usual tabasco and some other hot sauce.

Excellent meal that we finished off with bread pudding and pecan pie.

Yums!

Wow Greg, sounds like awesome eats for sure. Glad you and T-bird had a wonderfull time. Never had the chance to expierence foods like that other than I tried frog legs once.

Is this place far from where you and T-bird reside?

It's about 45 minutes to the west.

Sounds like a great place. We may have to do a road trip some time! Did they have Abita Andy Gator?
