Better late than never..

I was in Jackson the week before last. I am new to Jackson so I checked the free weekly: The Jackson Free Press. The issue I picked up included a dining guide. Perfect. Armed with their map of downtown with over a dozen restaurants marked I headed south on 55.

Suffice to say, not much is open in Jackson, MS on a weeknight. After some looking I found Hal and Mal’s Restaurant and Brewery.

The catfish sandwich is good. The bread left a little to be desired but the rest made it worth it.

I even received a marriage proposal. Now, she had been drinking most of the day but was a lawyer and and a reader. She recommended:

A Room of One’s Own by Virginia Wolf,
The Moviegoer by Walker Percy,
Women by Charles Bukowski and
A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius by Dave Eggers

I have not read any of them but they’re now on my list.
