Every so often in my travels, both around town and around the states, I run across some fun and entertaining restaurants.
My latest discovery, by way of my girlfriend Kimberly, was Kooky Canuck, a downtown eatery in Memphis, Tennessee. Imagine a contemporary hunting lodge setting with light wood, complete with animal heads on the walls. Now throw in HUGE food portions and a sports bar atmosphere, and you have Kooky Canuck.
The first thing I liked was part of their drink menu, the "Bomb List". While admittedly a light-weight, this cleverly named menu gave me a laugh. Further reading of the regular menu showcased things like "The Avalanche" with 18 (yes you read that right) scoops of ice cream and lots of toppings. I opted for the Corn Brats (Bratwurst Corndog) and Buffalo Tenders. The former, though a wacky sounding combo, worked quite well. The mild Buffalo tenders were indeed tender and juicy with a subtle, yet kicky flavor. Both were filling and meals all to themselves. Did I mention these were just appetizers? Seriously, there is no such thing as a small portion in this place.
Megan, our server, took good care of us with a smile and a genuinely happy attitude. We appreciated the hospitality. Besides, we're easy going customers anyway.;)
If your travels take you to Memphis, Tennessee, (or you just love a good burger) stop into the Kooky Canuck downtown. Don't be a hoser, eh? (Sorry, had to do it.)
Thank you Kooky Canuck! You all defintely Do Right. ;)
