Happy Tuesday!

The first day of spring is only a few days away, so it’s only fitting that we got some snow flurries in mid-March! You never know what North Alabama weather is going to have in store…

If you got some snow, I’d love to see it! Hit reply and send me a picture or two!!

Let’s get to it!

The highly anticipated Barracuda Taco Stand is hosting its ribbon cutting this Thursday at 10:30 AM and will be opening fully to the public on Friday.

The new taco stand is located at 535 Meridian Street, just steps away from Furniture Factory Bar & Grill. The restaurant is known for its out of this world tacos and hand-pressed four-ingredient tortillas, along with classics like fish and shrimp tacos, rice bowls, house-made salsas, and margaritas.

Originally founded in New Orleans, the Huntsville location marks the brand’s first location in Alabama! You can see the full menu here.

Fatso’s Famous Pizza has officially opened its doors in South Huntsville, bringing thin-crust pies and plenty of toppings to the area.

The new restaurant is located at 7914 Memorial Parkway (in the Bigfoot’s Little Donuts plaza) and serves a variety of pies, ranging from classic pepperoni to bold takes on the Italian classic. Have you ever thought to put pickles on your pizza? Why not give it a try?
