Urban Bar-B-Que Company
There’s nothing that’ll ignite debate faster than barbecue. To avoid fueling the fire, Urban Bar-B-Que slow-smokes its meats, infusing them with the scent of hickory and oak, and offers up sauces—Yella, traditional, Carolina and Corey Joe’s—that embrace regional distinctions. The pulled pork and chicken is sold by the sandwich, plate or pound. From its starters to its sides to its sweets, Urban Bar-B-Que offers up some of the best comfort food in town. There are deviled eggs, collard greens, mac and cheese, corn bread, and key lime and peanut butter pies—all like your grandma used to make, only better. Sorry, grandma.

| BREAKFAST | The Woodside Deli & Catering Company Baseball season may be over, but the Grand Slam remains the breakfast of champs at The Woodside Deli, according to manager Rachel Mpenda. “It’s definitely the most popular,” she said of the dish that includes French toast, bacon, sausage, home fries and coffee. No Woodside breakfast is complete without the restaurant’s outstanding ISTOCKPHOTO/STOCKSTUDIOX home fries. Everything on the moderately priced menu is made fresh and to order. While most dishes—eggs, omelettes, breakfast burritos, pancakes and Belgian waffles—are available daily, the signature Crabcake Benedict is reserved for weekends. 4 N.
