L’opossum Made Southern Living’s “The South’s Best Restaurants 2015” List
From the article in Southern Living:
Chef David Shannon’s new venture L’opposum isn’t only idiosyncratic in name. For one, the restaurant is furnished with his personal art collection, which includes Star Wars collectable plates, miniature statues of David, and paintings of punk singers like Nick Cave. Oh yeah, and stuffed possums. The menu contains items with names such as A Mélange of Manikintowne Mesclun and Swashbuckling Bundt Pirate Drenched in Hot Buttered Rum. Try the Les Escargots à la Ham Biscuit i.e. snails on soft biscuits swimming in a sweet garlic beurre blanc.
Congratulations, David Shannon and the L’opossum crew!

Digging Out
China Street this morning…
It’s an unfair contrast with City streets (and there have been more City plow trucks working their way through the neighborhood since early this morning), but Hollywood Cemetery’s roads were very well cleared.
