Poplar Bluff Foodie
I'm a native Poplar Bluff, Missourian. I'm writing this blog in an attempt to follow the burgeoning food trend that is slowly growing in our town. I hope to critique the state of Food in our area without becoming a critical troll. Enjoy.

Lunch at Scotty's
Today I had the pleasure of taking my young daughter out for lunch. Being in the neighborhood we decided to give the newly opened Scotty's Brewhouse a try. I have to tell, whomever designed this place did a beautiful job. I just have one question, why aren't the giant roll-up windows facing the Football Stadium? #gomules
As we entered we were greeted by some very pleasant hosts and seated promptly, honestly it wasn't as busy as I expected for lunch time. Our hostess, who wasn't very knowledgeable about the menu or their specials, left us in the very capable and friendly hands of Cassidy our waitress.
After some deliberation I decided on the Buffalo Chicken Wrap with waffle fries and my daughter had their sliders with tots. Our food arrived within a reasonable amount of time and we dug in.
My food was plated nicely but the first bite had me wishing I had ordered a medium sauce. The mild was true to its name and left me wanting more heat. The overall wrap was very good but in all honesty, I actually enjoyed my daughter's burger more. The patty was well seasoned and served on a fresh bun with real cheddar and the tots had just the right amount of salt and crunch.
All-in-all we had a very good meal but the next time I'm going to explore their burger options. Check them out when you get a chance, and let me know your favorites.
Enjoy

Fish Friday @ Triple Bs
If you haven't been to 3B's yet, then I need to explain the setting. They are a typical Bar with the racks of liquor, pool table, dart board, scattered tables, Tv's everywhere, and a half dozen smokers. Now I don't mind a bar setting, even though I'm not a drinker. However, I'm not a fan of cigarette smoke as I don't like it messing with my palate, but it wasn't cloying so I tolerated it in hopes of some great fish.
Right off the bat I was a little worried as they only had 1 waitress, and 1 cook working. I sat down and after more than a few minutes the slightly harried waitress stopped by to get my drink order. My brother finally showed up a few minutes later and the waiting began. At about 12:20 I was handed my sweet tea, chips and salsa. At 12:25, she came back by and took my brothers drink order. At 12:30 we overheard that the kitchen had lost 6 fish orders. At 12:40 she finally came and took our orders, and at nearly 1:00 we were delivered our burgers ( we were short on time by then and hoped the burgers would be faster). In all fairness the burgers were handmade and juicy. They were served with potato chips, but still very filling, and the sweet tea was excellent. The chips and salsa were average but kept me busy during our wait. According to some of the other patrons the fish was delicious even if it was slow. I plan to give them another chance soon, as I can truly understand having a bad day. All in all it was still a good long lunch with my brother.
Give them a try and let me know your experience.
Enjoy
