Walking In Memphis: City Silo Table + Pantry

#weddingdietwannabe

As I've said before, we are getting hitched soon.  Although, the post just before this one was a post about a burger place that probably still uses the same oil to fry bacon today that they first poured into the fryer the day they opened their doors, I am now on a mission for something healthier.

I stumbled upon City Silo Table + Pantry on Instagram (and had recently been to The Sear Shack located in the same shopping center) and decided it would be on my list of places to hit in Memphis.

Hoping that maybe it would spark a health kick. Maybe?!







From Instagram, I knew City Silo had a super cute, crisp, and clean atmosphere and found out that the food was just the same!  I was worried about the band to buck ratio but was pleasantly surprised!  We got in and out of there for about $26 and this is what we had....




My man was feeling a little bold and ordered a wheatgrass shot.  He enjoyed it!  Apparently, he has had one before (who knew?!) so he did have something to compare to.  He was happy to report that this was a little sweeter than what he has had in the past.




I had the kale caesar salad with grilled farm raised chicken.  It was great.  Just enough crunch, caesar flavor, and chicken to fill me up.  




He had the El Goodo hearty bowl with a fried egg and avocado and polished it off.




Be sure to go check them out on Instagram and Facebook.  Or even better, go visit them in Memphis! We will for sure be going back to try the smoothies, smoothie bowls, lattes, and other healthy, hearty concoctions. 


We finished the night meetings some friends at The Cheese Cake Corner.  We were not expecting a place so romantic to get a slice of cheesecake.  Glass table tops, wine selection, decadent cheesecake selection, cheesecake topping selection, candlelit ambiance - it was so nice, yummy, and not at all in line with the wedding diets!




Sorry, no cheesecake pictures, it was too dark at the table.  See....

  1. That El Gordo bowl with the fried egg and avocado looks really good - and healthy!
