Brunch at Swine Southern Table & Bar

If there is a meal that for me stands above the rest it's brunch. The brunch at Swine is one of the yummiest in town. From the cocktails (personal fave is the blackberry bourbon smash) to the appetizers and entrees, everything is great.

On my last visit I was happy to find some items from their sister restaurant Yardbird now in the menu. For our starter I knew what I wanted as soon as I saw it on the menu, the Yardbird BLT - fried green tomatoes, house smoked pork belly tomato jam, pimento cheese, frisée and lemon vinaigrette. The tomatoes are not overly breaded or fried and the pimento cheese with the porkbelly adds an amazing blend of flavors in every bite.

 Another favorite item of mine is the mac & cheese, with bacon of course, five cheeses and a crunchy topping. This is cheesetastic because in my book there can never be too much cheese!

We also ordered the shrimp and grits, chicken and waffles (yardbird) and the tater tot poutine hash which comes with you guessed it, lots of cheese! We ended our amazing brunch with the Swine sticky bun, because you just have to, it is warm, sweet, sticky, comes with ice-cream and candied pecans. I always have to end my meal at Swine with it.
