Hello ol' Buddy

Buddy's is our go to favorite when we want a sit-down meal, but we aren't quite sure what we want. It's casual and fun, not a chain (good luck with that in LexVegas!), and the food is always delicious and, at times, quite adventuresome.

I've had several tasty dishes at Buddy's, but on this night I decided to try something new--Barbeque Duckadilla. The menu describes this as "barbecue duck, prosciutto, grilled apples, green onion, and cheddar cheese in a grilled tortilla." The portion was insane, people. I had half left over for lunch. The flavors, while quite, um, different, married well into something very tasty and satisfying (it was really meat heavy). My only complaint was that the salad that was served with the Duckadilla was much too mild to stand up to the heavy flavors of the entree.

Chef had the Buddy Burger, always a solid choice. It's a burger, and it's good. 'Nuff said.

The new manager is adding more microbrews to the menu, so if you are a beer fan, stop into the Lucille's Lounge inside the restaurant and order up an icy cold beverage.

Enjoy the Memorial Day weekend! Eat hearty and happy.
