When people talk of culinary destinations in the South, the cities most often named are Atlanta, Charleston and Nashville. Draw the lens closer to Alabama and you will hear praises for the River Region and dining hot spots, like the ones listed here in our dining guide. They are just a small sampling of the fabu- lous eating establishments available to us throughout the River Region. If you haven’t been to any of the places listed, you must put them on your din- ing radar for a future visit. You’ll be glad you did. 32 RIVER REGION LIVING www.riverregionliving.com { 2018 DINING GUIDE }
