BEIGNETS AT MO’BAY BEIGNET CO.
Mo’Bay’s beignets have an irresistible, fluffy doughiness. I almost skipped out on the homemade syrups, thinking anything topped with copious amount of powdered sugar is already overindulgent, but I couldn’t help my curiosity. The syrups are definitely decadent, but not overwhelming. I’m particularly fond of the cinnamon syrup. I highly recommend pairing these extra sweet treats with the freshly brewed pecan or chicory coffee.” — Michelle Parvinrouh, Executive Director, Innovation Portal
Mo’Bay Beignet Co. • 451 Dauphin St. 455-0056

STEAK AT DAUPHIN’S
“The team at Dauphin’s does an excellent job when it comes to the customer service, presentation and meal for the patrons. The steak by far was the best I’ve had since living in Mobile. Seasoned to perfection and truly mouthwatering — hats off to the chef. And of course, the view of the city really drives the experience home.” — Daniel Huggins, Chief Operating Officer, Children’s Medical Group, P.A.
Dauphin’s • 107 St Francis St., Suite 3400. 444-0200

MEZA MIXER AT SAGE LEBANESE CAFE
“The only time my wife and I can meet up without kids during the week is for lunch, and we love to go to Sage Lebanese Cuisine & Cafe in downtown Fairhope. We split the Meza Mixer, an appetizer sampler that offers a variety of homemade tastes including hummus, grape leaves, falafel and ample pita bread. We then split an entree, usually the lamb over hummus, which comes with a salad and in-house dressing. Go for the Sriracha hummus for an extra kick!” — E. Lee Webb III, Commercial Relationship Manager, Trustmark National Bank
Sage Lebanese Cuisine & Cafe • 319 Fairhope Ave., Fairhope. 517-7536

SPICY RED CURRY COCONUT CHICKEN BOWL AT DRAGONFLY
“If you’re not an adventurous eater, don’t let a list of unfamiliar ingredients scare you. This is one of the best dishes in town! The combination of velvety noodles and creamy broth balances the heat from the jalapeños and Asian pesto perfectly. It’s an excellent departure from the salad and sandwich lunch routine, and you can’t beat the atmosphere. (Pro tip: Ask for it over steamed cabbage if you’re watching carbs.)” — Marissa Thetford Marketing, Owner, Marissa Thetford Marketing
Dragonfly Foodbar • 7 South Church St., Fairhope. 990-5722
