What a beautiful warm winter’s day to enjoy some chicken tenders outside at Melt in Mountain Brook. I have been to this restaurant a couple times before (at a different location) but they didn’t have chicken tenders, so maybe it is a new addition to the menu. They are “expanding” beyond grilled cheese sandwiches I guess. Anyway, the tenders were very good, as were the fries. I could tell both were cooked fresh. I enjoyed sitting outside on the patio and they had some fun games to play to keep you occupied while you wait for the tenders to come out. I would definitely enjoy this meal again!

The Venue is one of my new favorite places in town. It has an awesome outdoor area to hang out, delicious ice cream, friendly staff, and multiple food options. Right now only one restaurant is open (Old Chicago Eatery), but there will soon be five options to choose from. I was a bit hesitant to try the chicken tenders, but I was not disappointed. They were very tasty and I could tell they were freshly made; there was a nice flavorful seasoning and they were served hot. The meal came with house-made chips instead of fries and I was a little disappointed at first, but the chips turned out to be delicious. My only complaint is I wish there had been 1 or 2 more chicken tenders in the meal as I was still a bit hungry, considering the price. Good thing they had ice cream too at Liza's Sweet Shoppe to finish out the meal. I will definitely be returning here many times because of the outdoor environment and it's a great place to meet friends and hang out. There are lots of TVs to watch your favorite sports game and outdoor activities like cornhole and it's a good place to bring your kid or dog. Make sure to check it out! @venuetuscaloosa

Chicken tenders with a view! This has to be one of the coolest and most unique restaurants in Birmingham. Alpha Charlie Grill is right next to the airport and looks out over the runway. You can watch airplanes take off and land while enjoying a delicious meal! There is an awesome outdoor patio area, and the inside of the restaurant has real airplane parts as some of the decorations. It’s apparently a popular spot for birthday parties; just in a short period of time there were two parties going on (a 2-year-old and a 75-year-old). The chicken tenders were just alright. You can only get them on the Co-Pilots kids menu. Just your typical, previously frozen ballpark tenders. However, the fries and cheeseburger were delicious. The atmosphere is really what made this place cool. Any aviation enthusiasts will love this place!

For my second review in Malaysia, I visited a very hip restaurant called Gravybaby which is located in historic George Town. My first impression walking into the restaurant was amazement at all the lights and decor. Then I got the menu, which was a whopping 44 pages! They had all kinds of food, from pizza to tacos to steaks (one was $180) and a huge drink menu. I had to wait a while for my tenders because they misplaced my order somehow, but when they finally came out I sure was satisfied! The tenders were very hot and fresh with a crispy Panko breading and juicy interior. They were similar to the tenders I make from scratch at home. The sweet Asian chili sauce was delicious, as were the french fries. This restaurant had great service and a fun dining atmosphere. I would highly recommend it! @gravybabypies
