Jackson Jambalaya

Oh well, I will have to save my Wednesday night burger fix for another day. Moreover, another venue since...wow...those are some good burgers...SMH

At least they're holding it in Madison. Keep the tax money here. Usually the hauty pigs in Madison opt for the ten story hotel across the line in Jackson.

Too bad that John Taylor is Chairman. He donated money heavily to the GOP and then declared bankruptcy.

I hear the menu includes fresh, newly discovered Madison "Boa Babe", fried, and served with a side salad, cole slaw, and pumpkin pie.

Gee - S'fax is wrong about something? Burgers & Blues is in Ridgeland (you know, the other town in south MadCo).

On a more cheerful note I hear the dessert will be a pineapple bar...

2:01; I know it was early, but, think 'county', 'county'. Point being, Madison County's villages should not hold events across the county line in Hinds.

And Mississippi trade groups shouldn't hold their annual meetings two states away. Sometimes you gotta go where there's room for the crowd.

I'm still curious about the very first comment. SMH, are you boycotting the restaurant because they allowed Republicans to have a party there?

Bill...No, not boycotting. I am a big man and love my burgers, especially the 'Stamp' styled burger. I am not going to Dalton street or McWillie and the place in Canton is now closed so B & B will still get my business. Let's face it, if I used party affiliation as a criteria...I would be growing my own food, making my own clothes and such...the GOP has this area locked up :-)

SMH is not someone's initials, but rather, text shortcut for "shaking my head"

Oops. I don't use the text shorthand so I don't recognize it when I see it.

Liberals tend to shake their heads a lot. I guess they are confused by truth and reality.

Bill.......I thought SMH stood for
Silly Mutton Head.

Oh the irony of the Repubs holding their party to watch the first African American president at a minority owned eatery?

Shhhh!!! Don't say it's 'minority owned'...awwwww man...here goes the neighborhood!!!!

It's actually rather simple to get preferential treatment by having it appear on paper that a business is minority or female owned, or both.

And speaking of venues; does anybody really believe the Mississippi Manufacturer's Association cannot find a place other than Destin, Florida to spend its retreat money? And that chambers of commerce in Madison County need to cross County Line Road to find white table cloths and bowtied wait-staff?

Shadowfax, you are wrong. MMA has their conference at the Beau Rivage. Has done so for years. I personally wish they would have it in Destin, but there you go.

1:40, I think that's a pretty clear indication that stuff like that isn't nearly as important to us as it is the Democrats, which is what I've been trying to tell everyone for all these years.
