Babalu

As you know I am from Jackson, Ms. and Fondren is a hip area near downtown Jackson. It is full of chic little shops and restaurants. This area was also featured in the book turned movie "The Help" where it was restored to the way it looked in the 1960's. If you have not seen this movie it is wonderful but anyway back to Babalu. Babalu is a Tacos and Tapas restaurant that opened around a year ago. I have been planning to go but just never seemed to really get the time too.

While Jay and I were on our trip in San Francisco we came up with a little list of new restaurants that we need to make sure to try when we go home to Jackson. I have also decided I will post about each one when we do get around to visiting them. Well, the first one on our list was Babalu so once we got back from San Francisco we made sure to go before leaving to go back to Starkville.

Now, this is not your typical type of Mexican food. We both love Guacamole which is wonderful because they make fresh Guacamole table side. It tastes so fresh and light. The tacos may seem small but they are actually very filling and taste great. Also, you can do the combination which is what Jay did. That seems to be the best way to try three and figure out your favorite one. I would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting Jackson, Ms.
