SEC Roadtrip: One Stop

See I thought about hightlighting the "must see" places and things to do in all the SEC towns, but the one I really know and love to talk about is Oxford.  Let's face it voted most beautiful campus nothing really compares.  The University of Mississippi is breathtakingly beautiful.  The Grove, the Lyceum, the Ford Center, and on and on.  The Square obviously ranks very high on my list.  I'll go into detail later.  As I write this, it is sad to think that this will, in fact, be my last semster at Ole Miss.  I know that it will be hard to leave, but I am rest assured that the University, especially accounting program, has prepared me for the world.  And I am very appreciative of that.

I am going to discuss my some of my favorites about Oxford.  If you can't tell already, I love to eat.  It may be a problem.  Not even that I love eating, but I love going out to eat.  A time to share a meal with friends and family and of course just sit there and be served.

208, Soulshine, Ajax, BBB, Bottletree, Volta, Toyo.  Where to begin?  Ok, let's start with the Square. 

I am going to touch on a few of the above mentioned places.  208 may be one of my favorite all of a round resturants that there is.  The atmosphere, food, wine are all my very favorites.  Can't go wrong ordering the burger or filet.

Soulshine is my new addiction.  I seriously may crave this everyday.  It is a pizza place, of course.  I recommend the BBQ nachos, cheese bread, or Boss Hawg pizza.

look how good!

Another place I must mention is Volta.  I really do not think that there is another restaurant like it.  I love the porch out front on a nice day maybe sipping on a margarita.  There whole menu is pretty much to die for.  I love the pita melt, hotty toddy balls, gyro, soulvaki, and more.

If you make it to Oxford in Spring time, you must go to an Ole Miss Baseball game.  The atmosphere of Swayze field is electrifying.  Talk about some great SEC baseball.

Without a doubt, you must experience the Grove at some point during football season.  Amazing time to spend with family and friends.  Another thing I would do before leaving Oxford would be to visit Rowan Oak, William Faulkner's house.  Such a beautiful but simple house with so much history.  I know that I am going to have a hard time leaving my home for the past 5 years.  Crazy how time flies.
